Scottish Strawberries

We now have locally grown strawberries for sale. You can buy them either buy the punnet for £1.70 or as a dessert with cream for £2.00. A real taste of Summer.

New Stock

With the outdoors in mind and the weather inproving we have some new stock to show you. Why not get busy in the garden with some of our ideas. Or perhaps you could encourage some wildlife to visit with these bird houses and feeders.

Grace

We have

experienced some gorgeous weather in Cawdor this week.

It was lovely to watch one of of today's customers making very good use of the sunshine. A pretty girl called Grace came for lunch with her mummy and her little brother James, afterwards she was very taken with the Maileg Bunnies in our old Victorian pram - the gravel was a little hard work though.

Gluten Free Byron Bay Cookies

We have always sold Gluten Free Coconut Crimbles in our Coffee Shop but we were recently able to add to our range. Byron Bay Cookies are now made in the UK which means we are able to offer them too. As well as the 2 Gluten Free varieties we have - Oat & Honey, White Chocolate & Macadamia Nut and ...Dotty (delicious and not just for the children).

Jane Yeadon - SOLD OUT

We have sold all of the tickets for the event held at Villagegreen. Thank you to those of you that managed to get your tickets, we look forward to seeing you here in June.

Springtime

Spring is coming

We have a lovely new look to our coffee shop windows this week, beautiful bright home accessories in colours inspired by the Spring flowers that are slowly emerging in our gardens.

Meet Angus

It is so cold this week, we thought we would cheer you up with our Winter Special of Brodie's Hot Chocolate at £1.50.

This offer will run until the beginning of March.

Winter Wonderland

Just a quick reminder - if Cawdor Primary School is closed due to adverse weather conditions then we shall close too.
Take special care on the roads if you do venture out.

Bad News

Today was Workshop Day but unfortunately we shall have to postpone. A few people have cancelled, reluctant to come out in the poor weather. We shall of course re-think the projects in March and perhaps incorporate a mini-book into one of those workshops.

Keep warm.

Workshops

We had a such good response to our Halloween and Christmas Craft Workshops that we have decided to make them a regular feature. Rachel popped in today so we were able to finalise some projects. The first Make and Take Class of the year will be a Valentine themed Parent and Child evening, on Monday 2nd February from 6.45 pm until about 8.15 pm. We shall make a little note-book. There are limited places so please book a place by visiting the shop in Cawdor. As before, the parent and child classes are £7.50 per person and should be paid for at the time of booking. The ladies only classes will be a little more. Rachel has lots of ideas for the next few months so if you are interested just let us know.
