Late Spring at Hammer Inn

Hammer Inn is our base in the East Neuk of Fife, just outside the fishing village of Crail. The name ‘Hammer Inn’ comes from its history as a coaching stop in the mid 19th century, when a Blacksmith (then also known as a Hammer Man) plied his trade here, shoeing coach horses.

We have a wonderful selection of wild flowers and trees on the property, as well as an orchard with apple, cherry, plum, damson and gooseberries, so this is a lovely place to observe the changing seasons.

This is what late Spring looks like at Hammer Inn: lengthening days of wide, bright blue skies and beautifully clouded and coloured sunsets; April bluebells and and tightly-closed buds giving way to blossom and dandelion clocks in May.

I hope you enjoy this little glimpse of late Spring at Hammer Inn…

I hope you enjoyed this little peak at early Spring in Scotland. These photos were taken during February and March but I plan to show you what late Spring looks like, too - in April and May. For now, I’ll leave you with a short clip of daffodils nodding in a gentle breeze and some birdsong in the background, so make sure your volume is turned up!
