The Japanese love two things—-in fact revere them—pottery and cherry blossom. But with Japan being closed to tourists because of Covid restrictions, why not come to Blackheath Pottery instead?

We have a beautiful cherry tree just about to bloom to welcome spring.

There were some suggestions to be more Japanese. One of the men around here—-mentioning no names, but he has white hair—wanted to dress us up as geisha girls HELLO!! No.

Another male, again no names but he has a big red beard, suggested samurai warriors!! NO-NO-NO!!

Our cherry tree is 60 years old. Our garden is a peaceful haven away from the busy Causeway Coast. Relax and enjoy a coffee sitting between the branches of a glorious example of a cherry tree in full bloom. A place for quiet contemplation of the glory of Mother-nature, away from the hustle and bustle—--- Japan comes to Aghadowey.

Your table awaits—Sayonara until we see you.
