A Weekend in Scotland, Marmalade Making, and Countryside Life (A Stay At Innes House)
This week has been such a mix of adventure, work, and family life! We spent the weekend in Scotland, staying with friends at the stunning Innes House. It was so special to switch off from filming, enjoy time with friends, and soak in those breathtaking views. I even tried a dram of whisky for the first time—when in Scotland! On the way home, we stopped at the House of Bruar for a quick shop and some sandwiches to fuel the long drive back to Sussex.
Back at home, I’ve been busy with marmalade-making—it's that time of year when Seville oranges are everywhere. The garden also got some TLC and Colin, our lovely horse, is getting ready to move to his new home, so I’ve been sorting his rugs and getting everything in order for the big day. It’s bittersweet, but I know it’s the right next step for him.
Bower Collective sent me their new pistachio and vanilla hand wash to test and honestly, it smells amazing. My favourite supplements are doing wonders for my skin, hair, and overall mood, and I’ve started taking Lion’s Mane after a recommendation from Lucinda Miller to help with focus—it’s early days, but I’ll let you know how it goes!
Lastly, I managed to squeeze in a visit to Petworth, one of my absolute favourite little towns. It’s full of antique shops and lovely independent stores, and perfect for a wander. The week’s been packed, but it’s those small moments—singing while riding Santana, or an evening with Simon with a good TV show—that make it all feel balanced. I hope you enjoy catching up!
Love, Charlie x
