In memory of our lovely Mum, Penni, the family are hosting an open house at Stephenson Ground this coming Easter Saturday, 19th April. Please drop in anytime between 2pm-6pm to help us celebrate Mum and everything she did for Stephenson Ground. We will have scattered her ashes under a tree earlier in the day, so you’re welcome to sit beside it and have a private chat with her if you feel like it. Coincidentally, April 19th would have been Dad’s 103rd birthday, so it seems like a perfect time to celebrate two wonderful people.

Everyone is welcome.

We've been loving watching the bats hunting over the porch at Stephenson Ground in the twilight and getting rather over-excited at the number of wildflowers that are now appearing in the gardens.

For the past couple of years, we've been managing the longer grass areas by periodically cutting them with a scythe (Grim Reaper it isn't ... it's remarkably meditative and great for the arms). It's starting to make a big difference to the biodiversity of the plants, and the knock-on effects for the insects, the bats and the birds is really heartening.

We have some early autumn dates available:
September 10th - September 15th
October 8th - October 23rd

It might not look very spectacular but it’s very exciting to find the first two Yellow Rattle plants that have grown from seed in our meadow. Here’s to many more helping to increase the biodiversity of the field.

We have the first two weeks of June available for guests so drop us a line about an early summer holiday and avoid the crowds! June is always one of the BEST times at Stephenson Ground - the lambs are still gamboling, the weather is usually lovely, the wildflowers are at their peak and the butterflies are busy.
