January is refurbishment time and as we head into February we are finishing this years revamp. This year was the turn of Ploughman’s Rest. The sofas went away to be covered in this wonderful cheque pattern. We have new curtains too. With the cottage being painted from top to bottom it is now looking very smart and ready for guests once again.
Burton Dassett hills is a two mile walk from the cottages and the beacon can be viewed from the farm. A lovely place to visit.

The mill was built in 1664 and blown down in a storm in 1946. The beacon was likely built by Lord of the Manor Sir Edward Belknap in the late 15th century as a tower mill and later used as defensive lookout tower in the English Civil War.
