Wow, Wyllie Cottage sounds like a real hidden gem! I’m fascinated by the idea of stepping back in time to 19th-century colonial life. Has anyone here done one of those living history demonstrations? I’d love to hear what it’s like churning butter the old-fashioned way! And those gardens sound perfect for a picnic – I’m thinking of packing a traditional Victorian-style lunch to really get into the spirit. Any recommendations for authentic 19th-century recipes I could try? Also, I’m curious about the best time to visit. Are the gardens still nice in autumn, or is summer really the way to go for the full experience?
