Your August Journal

by | Aug 2, 2026 | Blog | 0 comments

Hello-1

We’ve got back-to-back bookings at The Olive Farm this year and all of the guests who came through Airbnb have given us five star reviews ✨ Here’s a taste of their comments:

We had a magical trip at Claire’s as part of a trip we took to Italy this year.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful trullo.

Everything was very clean and exactly as shown in the pictures.

We had so much fun enjoying the pool and the peaceful evenings outside as the sun went down.

The property had so much charm and was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the area.

Thank you so much to everyone who has booked with us, it’s an honour to host you.

Last month’s Edgbaston Night Market was one of my favourite events. It had such a great vibe with families and friends out for drinks and dinner along gorgeous Greenfield Crescent. 

My calendar for August is on the Events page.

A Room With A View

The main bedroom in The Olive Farm’s trullo has doors leading out to the patio and endless views beyond. Both bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms and we can accommodate groups of up to six people with the Hayloft as an add-on.

What Im loving

Joining in The Odyssey obsession reading a 1943 translation of the story. I’m surprised by how engaging it is but impossible to keep in your head who’s related to who. 

Blackberry picking so early is astonishing but I love the way it slows you right down hunting for the ripe fruit

Not watching telly because the warm evenings are wasted indoors. Eating al fresco gives even the most boring of meals a touch of exoticism.
