It really is one of our favourite times of the year, when
the evenings draw in and the temperature drops. The gardens are resplendent
with red, gold and tangerine coloured leaves that carpet the ground like a
soft, plush rug. The cold air clears the skies, leaving us with chilly noses
and bright eyes. The Castle comes to life as we light the fires for the first
time, warming the stones and filling the chimneys with wood smoke. We hastily
shut doors to keep in the heat, and enjoy the cosy atmosphere within the
drawing rooms and Great Hall. What a fantastic season it is.
