Hello all,
been a while since popping in here, into July and the weather is not quite as good as in June but we wiil persevere. This week is Torbay Lifeboat week with various activities planned, notice I said planned, it depends on the weather. Apparently there will be wing walkers, parachute displays and the traditional lifeboat demonstration.
Next weekend is Cowtown carnival, always a fun day (31st July) then the steam engine rally returns to Churston the 1st weekend of August.
Tracy passed her illustration degree with a 2:1 and is beavering away on new works, David continues his Ghostwalk exploits and choir singing and expects to have no voice left by the end of August. For many people this could be a good thing. We have some vacancies in August so if you gancy a few days call and try your luck, otherwise we hope to see you soon.

May Update

Hello all, now mid May and the sun is shining though could be a touch warmer. It's been a busy time at Sampford House with the Icelandic volcano bringing in extra visitors and preventing some getting here. The pirate weekend went very well with a new record of 1722 despite cold conditions. David's choir, Perform Sings, won the shanty competition and if you ask him nicely he may sing for you at breakfast. (please don't ask him).
Brixham Heritage festival is the next big event starting 29th May and running for a week and the Brixham Ghost walk is back up and running if you fancy a bit of fun.
Tracy is on the last few weeks of her degree and has really worked hard so good luck with that Tracy.

Pirate Festival

Yo ho yo ho, May bank holiday weekend is the 2nd Brixham Pirate festival and once again we are going for the world record for the most pirates gathered in one place. Brixham attained the record last year but those damn americans have since snatched it so if you come to Brixham come as a pirate. David will be playing in a samba band, singing in a choir and ghostwalking that weekend as well as cooking, cleaning and ironing.
A traumatic few days at Sampford House as Frida went awol for 3 days but happily she came sprinting back meowwing loudly and very hungry. She is now the proud wearer of a collar and tag!

Winter weather

Hello from snow and ice free Brixham, what's all the fuss about? We have had hardly a snowflake fall here at Sampford house though the surrounding hills have had a smidgen and the mega hills after Exeter have once again struggled to be conquered.
Not much going on in Brixham though the fish market has almost been demolished, looking to complete the new build by end of August. I am rehearsing for panto Mother Goose from 17th - 20th February and doing a few jobs around the house.
Plenty of booking coming in for the season so if you fancy a break please get in touch.

Take care
David & Tracy
