Weekend in pictures

We have both been fairly busy and stressed at work lately so decided on the spur of the moment (most unlike us) to have a weekend away in the Wairarapa.

We stayed in this lovely cottage in Greytown:


It had a wonderful cottage garden:


The roses were at their best:


Much sleeping, knitting, reading and eating of chocolate was done:

We arrived back tonight, batteries recharged, ready to face the week. I managed to finish the scarf for my brother and a cross-stitch birth sampler for a friend who is having a baby this week. Photos of those later.

that looks like the perfect place to stay - does it have a web site?

Thanks for your comment - it's nice to get comments from new people!

The cottage is called Mole End (as in Wind in the Willows) and the web address is:

I'd highly recommend it as a nice place to relax for a few days and get some crafting done!
