Blog Name: Elderwomanblog
Location: North Devon, England
I blog in a tiny corner of our tiny living-room in our tiny cottage at the edge of a village in North Devon, England. Sky (my partner) and I are passionate about living simply and lightly on the Earth, so this little cottage suits our lifestyle perfectly.
It is built of cob (mud and small stones) and has been standing here since 1733, and it is so small that during the day our 10-by-12-foot living-room is our everything-room, including an office for an organization Sky runs called the Wholesome Food Association.
We share an old, pine table. My workspace is at one end and his is at the other. It is very cosy (especially on winter evenings when the woodstove is going). If anyone is interested, there are lots of pictures of our place here.

I'm in love with your cob cottage! It's absolutely beautiful and even more enchanting, if that's possible, with the dusting of snow.
Thank you so much for sharing your little piece of heaven. I'll visit your blog often.

Now when I read Anthony Trollope (as in now), or read British mysteries, or watch British Comedies, or listen to Gardener's Question Time, I will be picturing the places I have seen in your photos.I'm in Texas but my heart (for 72 years) has always been in a place just like yours. Good for you! BTW, I found this site by looking for As Time Goes By - you know, the best British comedy ever, well, among others.
