We have been extremely busy since Christmas, and will have even more going on through the next couple of months. A weekend in Essex may not seem the height of glamour and luxury - but it will suit us just fine!

March Forward...
We have been extremely busy since Christmas, and will have even more going on through the next couple of months. A weekend in Essex may not seem the height of glamour and luxury - but it will suit us just fine!
That sounds lovely; I followed your link and am wondering if you have picked 'a luxury hotel' or 'camping and glamping' for your stay or something in between 😃
ReplyDeleteA review may follow. Suffice it to say that I upgraded to a hotel with a pool , to enable Bob to exercise his back, only to get here and find it's been out of action for over a week!!
DeleteI've come away for eight days dog sitting a mere seven miles from home. I regard it as "catch up" time so my mind, soul and body can sync with each other. The dog is totally non-judgemental which helps.
ReplyDeleteI have no dog. But Bob is very non judgemental!!
DeleteWishing you a restful time. Regards Sue H

DeleteOne of my favourite (and least appreciated IMHO!) parts of the country. I was at university in Colchester and spent many happy sunny days in exploring the borderlands between Essex and Suffolk on my bike and this started my interest in old churches, especially those on the redundant churches list. I loved the coastal estuaries too and those I explored by dinghy from Brightlingsea. Have a relaxing break Angela, don’t forget your knitting for the evening. I think you know how much I love the horse jumper and Rosie wears it so well. Sarah in Sussex
ReplyDeleteIt is a very undervalued corner of the country, I agree!
DeleteWhat a shame about the pool! Have a lovely rest after your very busy time.❤️ Catriona
ReplyDeleteYou know how much we were looking forward to swimming 🏊♀️ 🏊♀️ . But we are enjoying the freedom to relax
DeleteEnjoy your break. Shame that the pool is out of action.
ReplyDeleteBut the sun is shining and the room is pleasant
DeleteHope you have a wonderful time and lots of rest and relaxation. :)

DeleteGetting away to rest (both physically and mentally) is a wonderful idea. I think I need to do this as well. There's so much stress here right now. I'm sorry the pool there is closed. I hope you and Bob find the get away peaceful.
ReplyDeleteEven a minibreak is a great restorative
DeleteEnjoy your time away. Hopefully you will both return home refreshed and ready to go again! Xx
ReplyDeleteWe are taking things at a gentle pace, and don't feel obliged to cram lots in.
DeleteA mini break is oftn a perfect way to relax and enjoy another part of the country.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely relaxing time!
ReplyDeleteHow disappointing about the pool, but I hope you are both relaxing nonetheless. Have a lovely time .
