It's been a wonderful week for us....but it's not been spent here at Sewing by Annie's. We have been away on another adventure in our caravan...the first for 2024.
We stayed on a really lovely campsite called Lamb Cottage in Winsford. It was an adult only site and the facilities were spotless. We did have some rain but we also had sunshine and lots of bird song all around us....it was perfect.
We visited Anderton canal lift....it was amazing to watch it working and while we were there we saw two canal boats being dropped to the lower canal and another one lifted up to the higher one.
We visited Quarry Mill [a National Trust property so it was free to us as members]. The grounds were really lovely with lots of places to walk and the old mill was amazing....I was able to see the old looms still working weaving cotton fabric.
We had to visit the Snugburys Ice cream shop whilst there....we had been there before so the visit was compulsory....it's the best ice cream we have ever tasted so be sure to pay it a visit if you are ever in the area.
The bee was 40 foot tall and was very impressive.
