I’m very lucky that my work takes me to some incredibly beautiful places. I travel all over, work from gorgeous settings and experience wonderful things.
But I’m usually in work mode.
This was the first time this year I packed a bag, went somewhere beautiful and it was simply me.
No work.
No schedule.
No rushing off somewhere else.
Just a little pause for me.
And I chose Wales.
Every time I come here, my shoulders drop. I just feel completely at home.
And was the perfect place to slow down.
Sheep in the field as soon as you open the cabin door 🐑
Falling asleep under a sky full of stars.
The rustling leaves.
The cows in the distance.
And absolutely nothing else.
The copper bath outside, tucked beneath the oak tree… with ample hot water to create the best bubble bath.
A log burner, more than enough logs for the fire, and the loveliest welcome hamper (an optional add-on, but one I would definitely recommend) filled with fresh berries, yoghurt, homemade granola, farm shop biscuits, bread and fresh farm eggs.
But really, it was the stillness that made it.
After such a long summer of constantly being on, I finally got to be off.
And that feeling of peace is still very much with me.
A little reminder that sometimes we don’t need to go far, do more or fill our time.
Sometimes we just need to change our pace.
Thank you, Cwm Llan, for such a beautiful little pause.
I’ll definitely be back 🍁🙏🏻✨
And a little shoutout to for introducing me to this beautiful place 🤎
