Find out what life is like on a modern working farm! - here's where you can read news and jottings from all of us at Churton Heath Farm.
Monday, March 11, 2013 at 02:37PM At last the red swirley wirley carpet has gone!! The carpet that we inherited when we arrived is no longer! Have got a very good deal from our friend Chris Maltby, Maltby's of Chester, so we have taken the plunge and changed the carpet in the hall, landing and stairs and had the walls painted - it looks very smart!! Now we have to keep it clean!! Hope to see you soon!
Friday, January 25, 2013 at 03:15PM I can't believe that it's the middle of January already, where has the time gone!! Happy New Year to all and let's hope that it is a good one for everyone!
We've had a quiet spell in the B&B, which as been lovely in one way, but not in another!! Bookings are slowly trickerling in, with people taking our midweek special offer up, and repeat visitors their complimentary bottle of wine at either of our local pubs - wish we got one!!
It's definately time the snow went and we had a good dry spell of weather, so that Jim can get on with the farming, we are terribly behind with all the rain that we have had!
I do hope that we see you sometime in 2013, if not, it only leaves me to wish you and your family/friends all the very best.

Monday, November 19, 2012 at 08:54PM Well we've done a 3rd room - it's on our second floor, called appropriately "The Top Room", and it seems to be a great success. I think our guests like being on the 2nd floor, it's even more peaceful than the others, and still has the lovely view!
It has certainly meant more work, but I hope that it is going to be worthwhile. It's great that the whole house is being used, loved and cared for!!
Let's hope this is continues to be popular!!
Thursday, September 13, 2012 at 02:40PM Just had our yearly visit from our bank manager, who pointed out that I hadn't blogged for a while!! Perhaps it's because we have been very busy!! No excuse I know. It's been a strange summer. Awful weather, but lots of bookings!!
We have had some lovely guests visit us, from far afield and near by. Everybody (well almost everybody!) seems to have enjoyed their stay, and have been a pleasure to look after!!
The boys have gone back to school, quite cheefully!! Sam has to choose his GSCE's this year, so a lot of hard work will have to be done!! Charlie is playing every sport that he can manage, along with a bit of school work on the side!!
The butcher's shop has been fairly busy, we're always wanting to welcome new customers in though!!
We very much would like to welcome you all to our award winning Bed and Breakfast, so hopefully see you soon!!
Monday, June 25, 2012 at 07:20AM It certainly has beenn too long since I wrote a little note, but we do seem to have been very busy! We have managed to find a great logo to "brand" the Churton Heath Farm experience, being the Bed and Breakfast and our Farm Butcher's shop - which we are very pleased with - hopefully it is something our visitors can associate us with.
After a quiet start, our Bed and Breakfast has been very busy, and we have met some lovely guests, who I hope have enjoyed staying with us! I am only sorry that two guests didn't seem to have a lovely time, we do our best to make sure our guests stay here is a special one, but at the end of the day we are only human! Anway we would love to welcome you to our Bed and Breakfast, so please do come and stay with us!
The boys are well, and school finishes shortly - where has the school year gone too! I am looking forward to the summer holidays, no homework and school stress, and hopefully some family fun!
I hope you have a good summer and look forward to catching up with soon,
Vanessa
