Isn't he a cutie !! There are two donkeys in the field at the venue and when we originally viewed the venue in February, it was thick fog and we couldn't see the end of the car park but we could hear the donkeys EEAAAWWW ing but couldn't see them. The venue own the donkeys and they are called Jermaine and Ronnie. We arrived at lunchtime and they were just being fed and cleaned out. This is his friend:-


We went for Sunday lunch and the food was fantastic. It's high up on the Moors on the borders of Yorkshire and Lancashire and this is the view all around it:-




So we are hoping for good weather and praying for no snow LOL! Wedding is in March!

    Awww what a cutie! I love donkeys but they always look so sad. March is going to be a bit hit & miss with the weather though!

    Awww, the venue looks wonderful and I've always had a thing for donkeys ... they look so sad I always want to give one a hug. You never know .. maybe the wedding will make one smile?

    Ha ha Carol - I know what you mean about the snow! It probably will be snowing up there but at least most of the guests are staying the night before or live fairly close in Meltham, Golcar, etc so they only have a short journey albeit a fairly steep one from Holmfirth upwards!! The Manager did say that they have only ever had to close once and that was this year when they were cut off for a week! The donkeys will be great for the kids and the soppy adults like me and my daughter who are donkey lovers obsessed!

    They did get a big hug off me yesterday! The lady who was feeding them asked if I wanted to give them some carrots myself but I didn't fancy being slobbered all over!
