Well, thankfully Spring appears to be on the way with lovely sunny days here in the Peak District, lots of bird song and shoots appearing in the garden. We are really looking forward to welcoming guests back to Tub Cottage and hope we will be able to re-open again on Monday 12 April for our first guests.

Just a quick update. Over the next few weeks we are having a new gas stove fitted in the sitting room at Tub Cottage. Whilst we love the Coalbrookdale Little Wenlock gas stove, sadly our gas engineer does not!! Whilst he has signed it off as safe for the next 12 months, he has expressed concern about the age of the stove (it was fitted over 20 years ago) and the location of the flue. We have therefore decided to replace it whilst the cottage is closed. We will post some photos in this blog once the work is complete, and obviously update our photos on the website.

We look forward to Spring and Summer this year and once again welcoming guests to Tub Cottage. Let’s hope all goes to plan!
