This superb property is owned by the National Trust. The impressive Georgian house is let privately, however, apart from the gardens around the main house, the rest are open to the public. There is a beautiful low lying meadow with a stream, this is all flanked by rising woodland areas to each side.
In addition there is a walled garden with a Gazebo and rill, not forgetting the outbuildings which have been turned into a Café and gallery.
PLEASE if you are ever in Pembrokeshire you must find time to visit, you won't be disappointed.
Right, that's the advert over with!
During the Spring and Summer months, Colby can be quite busy, but this morning I was completely alone, it was perfect.
The frost crunched under foot as I walked across the meadow, with just the sound of the streams waterfalls in the background. The last bits of the earlier mist still hung over the house and smoke rose from the cottage chimney on the hill behind.
I took several photographs, from wide shots of the house in the meadow to more detailed photographs of frozen leaves and fallen trees.
I must say that I had a most enjoyable time and I do hope that you like some of the images that I've posted here.
I really do love Colby. Every time you visit you see something different.
I have an interesting affinity with the house as well, both professionally and on a personal level...but that's for another day.
