Fun for the Kids…

Posted by web_administrator | Category : The Abbey

I took my daughter and nephew to The West Midlands Safari Park, two weeks ago, and we had a fantastic day out. The park has four fantastic miles of self-drive safari, with close encounters all along the route. For a small fee you can purchase animal food to feed the tamer of the animals, such as the deer and goats (the kids loved this). After all the excitement of seeing the wild animals you can visit the amusement park, which has rides for all ages. The West Midlands Safari is a 50 minutes drive from The Abbey Hotel, so if...

So when people ask, has ‘Britain Got Talent?’ I think of the hills and the talent Britain has for amazing countrysides, and not the TV show. Over the past few weeks it has been far from quiet, the country has been gripped by the reports by the media, and the numbers...

Hooray! It’s asparagus season!

Posted by web_administrator | Category : The Abbey

The British asparagus season has officially started and will run until the end of June, so make the most of this delicious vegetable whilst it’s available. Asparagus is very climate dependent; the temperature of the soil must be at least 10ºc before it will begin to grow, so if it has been a warm spring then it is possible to see the first asparagus spears on the shelves by late April. Asparagus growers in the warmer, south of the country will traditionally harvest their crop first around April – growers further north may not start until a few days later....
