Happy Christmas you lovely lot!

Signing off for a few days in front of the fire, being awoken at 5am by excited children and enjoying a feast of food mainly grown by the family (what a privilege!).

Thank you to each and every one of you who supported us this year, and an enormous thank you to our irreplaceable, awesome team 🤍

If you still have some food shopping to do- try and support your local farms, farm shops and Farmstands- the farms won’t get Christmas Day off.

If you’re in need of a last min present- you can grab a wee voucher on our website and it’ll be emailed over to you at any time of night (or morning…). https://www.guardswell.co.uk/store

Love to everyone, and happy happy Christmas!

Little Winter Store

This Friday and Saturday from 10am-6pm.

Mince pies and mulled apple, coffee and biscotti, little lovely presents, bunches of mistletoe, twinkly lights, winter bulbs, beautiful books, and some jolly cheery faces.

We’d love to see you 🌲

Things we’d do this weekend if we were you…
- Visit our Little Winter Store on either Friday or Saturday, 10am-6pm
- Pop your wellies and waterproofs on and take a wintery walk, maybe collecting windfall cones and a small handful of evergreen branches for decorating.
- Support some brilliant local businesses at Christmas in the Tattie Barn, or Dunkeld Santa day- we’ll be at both with and our Shetland beef and yarn from the farm.
- If you’re staying with us, get the fire roaring and settle in for an afternoon nap (how luxurious is a day time nap??)
- A wee trip to the gloriously festive, and beyond beautiful
- If you haven’t already- there’s still time to make a decadent fruit filled Christmas cake- and for an extra special touch, make your own candied peel first.
- Head to .artland for Christmas at Jupiter… it looks so beautiful!
- Spend a little time thinking up and making a start on some homemade presents- whether that’s beeswax for cone firelighters, or maybe even some of white choc and ginger fudge.
Love from Team Guardswell. Gorgeous photo by for Diggers, at the Glasshouse.

Little Winter Store. A tiddly version of our Winter Store. A few beautiful things to buy, delicious coffee to sip, mulled apple, our own Shetland Beef and Hebridean Hogget for you to enjoy at home. It’s going to be lovely, just wrapped up slightly smaller and tied with a velvet ribbon. 5th and 6th, 12th and 13th December, 10am-6pm

Huts + chilly days. You might find the idea of a wee hut, with no central heating, a little unappealing in winter… but, oh, how you’d be wrong. Our huts truly come into their own when the mercury drops! The careful, planned feeding of the wood burner with logs. Ensuring the embers don’t burn out through the night. The thick, woolly jumper of sheep’s wool insulation. Layers of blankets on the bed. A warm cup of thick hot chocolate for breakfast. Bed socks. Rosy cheeks as you warm up from a frosty walk. Arguably, a winter hut stay is more of a slow down than a summer stay- you’re forced to think about your basic needs and that puts any of your modern stresses on the back burner. If you need to step back from a cluttered mind and cortisol fuzzy body, come join us on the farm over winter.

Adventures for soggy days. We absolutely subscribe to the no such thing as the wrong weather, just the wrong clothing… but it is always nice to have a wee refuge, a bothy, a boat… to hunker down in at the half way point- especially with wee explorers in tow. The Boat on the Hill is just that- somewhere for a picnic, to escape the rain, or just to sit awhile and look, plus it’s only a 10 minute walk from the main farm. How tiny is Aster in these photos taken by the wonderful ?

Oh the first real frosty morning, and a little “what’s on at the farm for the next wee while”. A November and December of cosy relaxation or taking a little moment for yourself over a hot choc. You’ve all been asking about the Winter Store… and who are we to ignore?! However- it’s going to be a “Little” version this year. Join us in the Steading over two Fridays and Saturdays for a coffee and peruse of some of our favourite things. If you feeling a little like the end of the year has come around far too fast, the days are whizzing by and you need a deep long exhale- we do have some winter availability in our huts and houses too, and we’d love to welcome you to stay and regain a little more of an even footing on this earth

The chooks are going through a bit of a mega moult at the moment so we’re eggless, which feels like a bit of a hardship for an egg loving family. So here’s a wee homage to the hennypennies before they looked as scraggly and featherless as they do right now. The bantam in the nest box is “Salla”, Asters favourite hen.

Just as the sun is going down at this time of year, before its hidden by the hill, there is a spectacular beam of sunlight that hits the side of the Infield- filling the whole hut with its warmth, illuminating the space, radiating warmth. After work one day, Ritchie ( and Team Guardswell) took a wee walk and caught the magical moment.

Happy Anniversary (Auntie Kiki and Uncle Iain), and an exciting first one with their wee Loofah squash. We’ve had some pretty spectacular weddings at Guardswell over the years, and we know we know… we’re bias… but this one was absolute top of the pops, and the most stupidly beautiful October day. Maybe we need to have another party soon?!
