A little bit of sunshine on a cloudy day
Some of you may know that I moved to the South Coast last summer from the North East. At the moment I feels like I’m on a journey of discovery finding new places of inspiration for my painting. I recently discovered Rogate Sunflowers which was a delight. It was a bit of an overcast day but they definitely added some sunshine to it, I continued driving round this area and was delighted to discover Durleighmarsh farm.
Originally a traditional farm it has adapted over the years now grows more than 20 acres of fruit and vegetables for Pick Your Own, old livestock buildings now house a variety of independent businesses. The Barn Emporium is a gorgeous mix of antiques, home accessories, furniture, art, jewellery, clothing and many other hand crafted products. There is also a delightful cafe on site and a farm shop full of tasty treats, I had to partake you understand:)
I would thoroughly recommend a trip out there, the surrounding countryside is just beautiful and makes for a relaxing and refreshing trip out. The address is The Barn Emporium, The Courtyard, Durleighmarsh Farm, Petersfield, Hampshire, GU31 5AX
