Savernake Forest Hotel.

A Memory of Savernake Forest.

Hi , I used to work at the Savernake Forest Hotel in 1970/71. I looked after the the hunt horses which were stabled at the back of the Hotel. I had a room nearest to the back door so I could easily get to work. 2 of the Horses I looked after belonged to Lord and Lady Savernake, 'Kismet and Cinderella' .I rode them everyday to keep them fit for the winter hunts.
I also attended a Christmas party at Lord and Lady Savernakes house. As I was a friend of their daughter I was invited to keep her company. We had a really lovely time. Unfortunately I am unable to remember her name, but we had fun around their gardens . I was only 15 at the time and I am 65 now so some of the memories have faded now.
