Country Cottages and flowers..........





A cottage is what comes to mind when you think of living in the countryside whether it is a pretty cottage in a coastal village in Cornwall
a stunning thatched cottage in Brittany, France or here in Ireland.

Our cottage is warm and comforting in the chilly months of winter and then in the summer it is cool and airy. I have half doors, these are great for letting a lovely warm summer breeze through the house but naughty chickens and nosey ducks can not wander in!


Spring in my garden

    Oh dear Denise, your home is SO CHARMING. Very few people can live is an authentic thatched cottage, and HERE YOU ARE! And I love half doors. But we here in America have many PESKY BUGS that fly into the house that I did not SEE in France and Italy when I was there. Therefore, the charm of half doors or SCREENLESS windows is possible on your side of the world, but only a dream for us!

    ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF THE DAY! Anita

    Love the half doors and the chickens, don't think I could handle the tatched roof though.

    Have a good weekend.
