The Winner



No big surprise that Mick Croot has won our photograph competition, if you have seen the great selection he and Jane sent us after their stay here last November. This one of neighbouring Dunbrody Abbey is just one of many superb photos, and I just picked this one above the others because I love the view of our 12th Century abbey. We had lots and lots of entries, and I've posted many of the best on Facebook, but Mick is our winner, and I hope all will agree. His prize is a 50% discount whenever he and Jane choose to return for another visit, and we'll line up some special treats to really spoil them next time.
Thanks to all who sent their photos. Please keep sending us your holiday pictures - we love to see them, and you never know. . . could be more prizes and discounts from time to time !
