Some more Sunday Shots...

As you already know I love to go exploring on Sunday's with my boyfriend, last Sunday we went to the grounds of a lovely estate run by the National Trust, the weather was beautiful, I was all set to take lots of photographs but as usual my batteries died. I got in a frenzy when I saw the light flashing and got to take these few photographs, so that explains why they are at funny angles. These cottages were part of the old farmyard which was converted into self catering accomodation.

Here is a photograph of the Castle in the distance, the castle is privately owned so we didn't get to see inside :o( We were very disappointed as I'm very nosey and like to see everything!
There were also the ruins of an older castle on the grounds of the estate, a boat house, workers cottages, summer house, mill and stables. I was very disappointed as we had gone here another Sunday in March but it was closed and that day my camera wouldn't work properly either. The grounds were beautiful with an array of wildlife. There were sheep and new born lambs bouncing about in the fields. This Sunday I'll make sure I have the camera batteries fully charged as I'm going to charge them now.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend and I'm looking forward to you all sharing what you got up to.

  2. What pretty cottages! its annoying when your batteries run out on your camera. We have been out and about the past few weeks, and I mostly forgot to take out camera with us. Doh.

    Looks like you have many beautiful places to visit in Ireland.

    Hope you have a lovely weekend.

  10. Oh how lovely!

    I miss the UK so much and a large part of that is (aside from family/friends) because of the stunning cottages, stately homes and castles...sigh.

    Looks like you had a great weekend, did you go for tea too? :-)
