We had the pleasure of having Louis de Bernières and his partner Ilone to stay recently. Louis is a British novelist most famous for his book Corelli's Mandolin, alternatively called Captain Corelli's Mandolin...which of course we asked him to play:
We very much look forward to their next visit to Lantallack.
Lantallack is an idyllic place in which to unwind. Beautiful gardens, with flower-filled borders and sweeping lawns. Sit under the Wisteria and watch the swallows swooping across the pond. Take a dip in, or lounge beside, our lovely outdoor heated swimming pool. Wander in May through the orchards or simply sit outside on your own patio, sipping a glass of wine, taking in the stunning view or a magnificent sunset at the end of the day whilst enjoying this haven of tranquillity.

Bee happy!
We have been overwhelmed at the successful growth of Lantallack's bee colony. The honey bees have bombarded all previous bee-hiving records by increasing their numbers from 10,000 to about 45,000 in less than 1 month (according to experts this usually takes a year!!) Watch out Pooh Bear...honey times are a-coming!! It must be something in the pollen at Lantallack! :)
