Sometimes I think I could watch a fire burn all evening. Then I realise I\u2019ve been sitting for hours not minutes and my mind has been set free to dream.<\/p>\n As the new year approaches somehow I can\u2019t help but think of all those good intentions we have – things we\u2019d love to do, but don\u2019t always find time for. Our search for a healthy and happy lifestyle.<\/p>\n So 2013 begins for us with a hive of activity. Very soon, the Secret Spa will be opening and we\u2019re really excited to be working with Truly Essential on this new project. In the next couple of months we\u2019ll be undertaking a \u2018Cottage Makeover\u2019 project. And I\u2019ll be writing\u2026.a lot.<\/p>\n Writing about self-guided walks, cycle rides and holidays in the Yorkshire Dales. All those places to explore from the doorstep. Adventures waiting to be discovered, just a short drive or train ride away.<\/p>\n Walking boots on, and wrapped up for the elements, it\u2019s a chance to set out on foot and enjoy the crisp fresh air. Reminding us of our dreams for a healthy and happy new year. I just love being outside.<\/p>\n<\/del>Sitting around the fireside with the new year around the corner, my eyes are drawn to the bright flames dancing and jumping in their fusion of colour. The faint crackle in the room.<\/p>\n
