May competition winner announced

The winner is...'windmill and dog walker' by Mr Hacker at Cooper's Hill,

Thank you for participating in our Springtime at Audley 2022 campaign.

Springtime at Audley is now officially closed.

.

It is a pleasure to appreciate all that our Audley villages have to offer during Springtime this year. We are all glad to be back outside, and watching from our windows, as nature is waking from the cold weather and starting to stir.

All over the country, our villages have a diverse and rich wildlife, ranging from foxes to bats, wet fowl to amphibians – all deserving of a place in our Springtime updates. Most exciting, is the wonderful amount of involvement from you, our Owners, without whom Springtime would not be able to blossom!

This year we have been joining you at your own villages, as well as taking you to other parts of the UK, on a virtual exploration of flora and fauna over the months of March, April and May...
