Hunchy Hideaway May Newsletter
Hi Everyone, Nights are cooling down … it won’t be long before Hunchy is lit with romantic fireside conversations! We have talked about proposals and weddings, so it seems opportune that local marriage celebrant, Kari, is offering a special deal which is detailed below.
It is time to announce the winner of the Like us on Facebook competition. Congratulations Naomi Sherlock, you have won a two night midweek accommodation package, delicious breakfast provisions, scones, jam and cream for afternoon tea, roses and chocolates! Naomi, call us so you can enjoy your package sometime in the next twelve months.
Recently, We were talking to Martin from Freestyle Escape cooking school, and we thought that cooking classes may be an activity that some of you may be interested in trying out while you are staying here at Hunchy Hideaway. We are fortunate here in the Hinterland to have access to amazing cooking schools, and we were surprised at the value for money, so we have popped them in an article for you below.
So check out our website or call us to plan your next romantic short break!
