Hubbards Hills - 12th September

We got Tallulah just 2 weeks before the end of the school summer holidays; so by the time we had got her all kitted out Simon was back at school.   This meant we had to wait for his days off before we could go anywhere. 

Simon only works 4 days a week now and is off Monday one week and Friday the next, giving us a long weekend every fortnight.   It would be great if we were able to go away properly.

So, our first real day trip out was on the 12th of September and we went to Hubbards Hills in Louth.

Hubbards Hills is an area of natural beauty and free for everyone. It was purchased for the people of Louth in 1902 after a wealthy Swiss man left money in his will.  You can read more about its history here: http://www.hubbardshills.co.uk/

It was a lovely warm day and we really enjoyed walking around the park.  


 
 
 
There were some lovely trees with huge exposed roots.   We did a kind of circular route which took us up very high above the trees and you could look right down to those roots. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
There was also a really lovely stream and a pavilion.
 
 
 
After so much walking around and exploring it is wonderful to get back to Tallulah and to get the kettle on.
 
 

We were even able to sit outside in some late summer sunshine.   Days out in Tallulah look like they are going to be fabulous if this day is anything to go by.
