Many things of note have evolved this summer, and hopefully we'll be able to blog about many of them very soon, but pride of place must surely go to the pool, which proved an unmitigated success among guests and us alike!
Typically reaching 28 degrees on August afternoons it was even warm enough for me to hop in without fear of hyperventilating - and I'm the world's biggest wuss when it comes to getting in cold water. Almost like being in Thailand.
Matt and Sophie Heason were staying here for most of August, and Matt at least made a point of plunging every single day of their visit.
But even into September when we were concerned the water temperature may start to plummet, the pool was put to extensive use by Sophie and Holly (left, thanks to Al Murray for the great photo), who seemed to think it weird that their parents preferred to go climbing!Back to chez Arran site
