The club is very lucky to have two properties - the cottage (for members and their guests) and the barn (for booking out to groups). It does mean twice as much maintenance though!

1998	New Velux windows to both the cottage and barn Barn kitchen extensively refurbished Both buildings redecorated
2000	Hut Appeal Fund launched Appeal raises over £4000 in 6 weeks
2002	Cottage rewired Fire Detection Systems fitted in both the cottage and barn Cottage kitchen refurbished (including fitting hobs to CORGI standards)
2003	New fire escape installed in the barn lounge Fire doors fitted in barn and cottage Barn washroom totally refurbished Cottage drying facilities completed
2004	Ceilings in the barn bedrooms replaced Two 80 year old beech trees felled from behind the barn
2005	Floor tiled in cottage kitchen and bathroom Cottage Kitchen redecorated
2006	The mains water pipe to the cottage and barn replaced Cottage lounge repainted

In 2008 the committee aim to focus on the cottage lounge (and hallway) so that the cottage becomes more of a home from home with a decent floor, comfortable but hard-wearing furnishings and maybe even a new fireplace.

If you have any comments on these improvements, or can help in some way, then please email John, who is putting together a development plan for both buildings.
