Whatever the season, when the day draws to a close and the candles are lit, a warm, fireside feeling fills our tents. The stove is stoked, and its soft radiance creates long shadows and a cosy glow.
At home, switching off at the day’s end isn’t easy. But with us the long evenings are spent lingering over supper, having good conversation, gathering together to play games, or relaxing with a book. Without the distractions of recordable TV and late night emails, the focus can be on time spent together.
An evening amble is the last of the day’s simple pleasures and many of our farms are set so deep in the countryside that the sky is extra inky, meaning the stars are extra twinkly.
