Some of you might have met Eddie on changeover day. In March he went to Leamington Spa to start his training and last Tuesday we went to see him before he moves to advanced training to be matched with a guide dog owners. Luckily we weren't expecting him to be overjoyed at seeing us and he forfilled our expectations.

I had an idea last week, words my husband usually dreads 😄.

Like many cottages we have requests for dogs to sleep on the bed, no problem we say. This involves them bringing their own bedding. But do they have a king size set or space in the car to fit it in?

So my idea is that guests could have another option, we supply a set that is kept just for this purpose. They could also still opt to bring their own bedding of course.

What do you think? Is it a good idea?

How stunning is Dilly, a young Podenco with an impressive presence. But she is also known as 'a bit of an escape artist', according to her human. At least the garden at Ruby Gem was secure enough to contain her and with Barney they were able to also enjoy the expansive beaches at Wonderful Winterton-on-sea.

We were down on the beach at Winterton this morning, the sea was wild you could hear the waves crashing on the shore from the cottage. The walk certainly blew the cobwebs away and Eddie never stopped running in circles with pure enjoyment.

If you are visting the beach the only access is at the diamond sign north of the car park, the ramp by the toilet block has been removed by the winter storms.

We walked over to the coastal path so Eddie needed to be on the lead. Still seals to be seen on the beach and plenty acting as trip hazards on the path basking in the sunshine.

Eddie's first experience of snow, a year old last Monday but very much a pup at heart. The dunes looked amazing in the winter sun.

You know when you get one of those magical days in winter, when the sun is shining and it isn't bitterly cold and you and your dog are just enjoying the moment. Well today at Winterton was definitely one of those. Joyous!

Aren't these lovely. They are a gift, chosen as the one on the right matches our garden shed, the one on the left is there to keep it company. 😍
It brightens up a dull day, although a walk through dunes certainly lifted the spirits. The seals are just about to arrive on the northern part of the beach.

Took Eddie our nearly 10 month old guide dog pup to Winterton beach today. Something happens as soon as his paws touch the sand, he can't stop running. Makes it really difficult to take a picture of him.
It was a glorious day on the beach, definitely didn't need my coat.
