Illustrator Rachel Bright and her partner Robbie have been amazingly creative with fun posters and cartoons dotted around the lodge showing you what's on offer. There are recycled bags for the shopping so you don't need to cart your stuff back in plastic bags, a vegetable patch where you can pick your own carrots, lettuce, spuds and other leaves to make yummy suppers, some hens and a brilliant hot tub heated by log burning stove (but make sure to start warming it up early in the day). Our favourite picture was Rachel's very amusing illustration about how to use the eco-loo. The kids found digging in the little bucket next to the loo and chucking sawdust into the toilet after you'd done a poo highly entertaining!
There's a fab ladder up to a mezzanine floor where the children slept, so much more exciting than a boring old bedroom. We had a few wonderful days out - to Swanage where we had a good old fashioned day at the seaside and then the Blue Pool, which has a stunning stroll around the impossibly blue lake suitable for all ages. We also had a cracking afternoon at Peppa Pig World on the way back home. www.alphafarm.co.uk
