If every writing project ended in a relaxing and sustaining residence like The Bees Knees Fruit Farm, Country House and Special Occasions, no one would ever complain about writing ever again.My friend Pattea Torrence once again created a space of such opulent beauty, yet grounded countryside in this Farm Stay. This is a place for weary souls to come to recover and find nirvana. Every tiny thought has gone into making it a temporary home. A well-stocked pantry, multiple coffee and tea options, many spaces to rest, and voluminous books to read. The inside boasted a cook's kitchen and an art museum quality to the furnishings. The feather bed- neigh every pillow, stuffed with soft down to encourage you to sit, read, recharge. Large country tables invited you to share nourishment and merriment with friends. The outside grounds are a combination of manicured plant perfection, while sprinkled with whimsy. And then a real farm. I made myself lunch from the leftover garden of summer. Plucked straight from the ground. I ate the apple off the tree as I had done as a child. I hugged a calf, took the ducks for a walk, and petted a purring rodent control system. This property was meant for strolling, I wandered by the seed barn, the playhouse, and the door that frames the distant mountains. I found a likeness in the garden. In the berry orchard, flanked by an ancient table with empty wine bottles. The setting was welcoming and capricious. Like everything here, such heart went into making each turn a surprise, yet sumptuous. A hawk screeched and circled above me as I tipped my hat to the woman who gives the world splendor and creativeness every day without regret. Her virtuosity and the magnificence she shares are pure magic. Book your visit NOW to The Bees Knees Fruit Farm, Country House and Special Occasions. #WritingRetreat #BeesKnees #Airbnb #farmstay
