🥖 Saying goodbye to a great supplier 🥖

Today we’re saying a heartfelt goodbye to Vanes Bakery, who have supplied us with our freshly baked bread rolls for over 9 years! ❤️

It’s been a pleasure working with you all these years, and we’re so grateful for your support and the delicious bread you’ve supplied us with.

We wish you all the very best in your retirement. Now it’s time to relax, enjoy and make the most of this next chapter! 🥂

Thank you for everything — you’ll be sadly missed! ❤️

🌿 MEET THE TEAM — WRIGHTY! 🌿

Some of you may know him, but today we’re giving a big shout-out to Wrighty, our gardener of 16 years! 👏💚

For 16 years, Wrighty has worked his magic keeping our garden looking beautiful, well-kept, colourful and tidy for all of you to enjoy. 🌸🌺🌿

From the stunning flowers to keeping everything neat and welcoming, he’s a huge part of what makes The Lydden Bell look the way it does. 🥰

So next time you’re admiring the gardens, remember there’s a lot of hard work behind them — and it’s all thanks to Wrighty! ❤️

Thank you, Wrighty, for 16 years of keeping our little corner looking beautiful! 🌿🌸
