Visiting Tom and Ruby

Angel's parents, Tom and Ruby, invited us to visit their place in Gough's Bay while we were in Mansfield.  Their amazing log "cabin" inspired by the Canadian log houses, was built by a local company using locally sourced timber.

The house is in a beautiful setting with fields and local woodland providing plenty of dry timber for the wood fired heating.

During the Covid epidemic, Angel spent her study time in the loft area amongst the massive timber beams.

Luckily the weather was perfect.  So while Ruby was doing the Masterchef thing in the house, we sat around an open fire over which Tom cooked the roast for dinner.
