Ready for your next instalment from The Chateau?

Grab a cuppa, take a comfy seat and enjoy!

After a full day of enjoying the sun and exploring Belton House, we headed back to our little chateau on the hill. Belton House and grounds was such a fantastic day, I'm going to have to tell you all about it separately, so keep a look out for that in the next few days.

We stocked up on coal and fire wood and just as it was getting dark arrived back at The Chateau. We got the fire roaring and settled down to an evening of bangers and mash, champagne and card games. I say card games, but the evening was mainly spent teaching Alex any two player card game I could think of. He's normally a clever cookie but rummy seemed to stump him! There was a lot of rolling on the floor laughing at his inability to grasp the rules.
