Romantic Retreat


I would love a little getaway to this gorgeous place.  I would arrive in this entrance hall with it's beautiful stone wall .....




after coming through  these beautiful doors.




I would sign the visitors book......






Have a quick visit here to freshen up.....




And then get shown to my room. Should I pick this one.......



or  this one?




I will then have lunch al fresco here.....





and then stroll through the beautiful gardens ....



admiring this.................



and this.....



and this...............




I will fetch my book and relax here for the rest of the afternoon. I might even doze off for a while.....




Then I will run a bath and have a long soak.....




while looking out onto this....




put on some make-up here.....




and then head on here for a pre-dinner cocktail .....




or should I rather have my cocktail outside? After all, it's a beautiful evening.....



A delicious dinner awaits.......





outside here with friends and family............




 or maybe a romantic meal here (with my husband, of course!) ....




After dinner I will pop into the kitchen to thank the chef for a wonderful meal.....




I will then sit here with a cup of coffee before heading for bed......





I will breakfast here in the morning.............



And have a final cup of tea here......




And then say good-bye to this beautiful place before heading home feeling wonderfully relaxed and rejuvenated.





Would you like to join me?
