My sister is legally blind and it was a real gift for her to hear you read this , thank you 🙏🏻😘💐

I have always wondered what your next-door neighbors think of how bealtine cottage turned out. It really is an eden there. You're a mighty force collette and I admire you so much

This has made me cry. I am on the verge of this change, not knowing how to wait any longer. Blessed be, Colette, dear sister what a heart you have poured into this world. I am looking forward to following in your steps. I pray the Goddess is helping ❤

Blessed be Colette and Patsy ..what a lovely cottage there..overgrow overshare overcare overseed everywhere worldwide ...have a great day cheers all stay safe and aware

Anyone who hasn't read A Cottage and Three Acres, please do so. It is inspirational. We had already begun in a similar, but slower moving project here when I discovered Colette's channel and, curious as to how Bealtane Cottage came about, I ordered the book. We have all read it, even my 8 year old grandchild is now half way through it. It gave us the push we needed to keep going and continues to support and encourages us. Our copy is a little dog dared now, the mark of a loved and constantly re-read book. Start, plant and let nature do what it wishes to do - to go back to offering beautiful, peaceful and truly natural surroundings to all creature and plants.

Dear Colette, I dont think you truly realise what an inspiration you are. I have followed your channel for many years and learned so much from you, which I am trying now to apply in my own small garden. I admire the way you have totally transformed your cottage and three acres into the beautiful space and haven for so many things it has become. You have taught us how to work with nature with love and empathy and our hearts. It has been a true delight to follow you all these years. Blessings of the Goddess to you. Much Love Deb X

Magnificent story. You're an inspiration 😊

While I have indeed read the book, I can't tell you the delight in actually hearing your voice tell your story. Thank you, Colette. 💚

As often as I’ve heard this story and read your book, I never tire of the Bealtaine project. Blessings.

Wow Colette 😢😢😢 beautiful 😊 absolutely beautiful. I often listen to others' stories like this and wonder who is saving whom. After watching this, I think I have my answers. It's the land, its mother earth that is doing the saving. We are just stewards. Thank you xx

I never tire of hearing/reading (and seeing!) that story...and it's nice for the newer members to the channel to hear it. Of course the combination of continued growth at Bealtaine plus your newer gear and honed cinematographic skills make each re-reading with videos better and better every time. I'm guessing it's also reenergizing for you yourself to reread and relive your own story. For those who don't yet have any of your books, A Cottage on Three Acres is a fantastic start! ....and as you reread this I'm seeing your mom and Jack and Sammy Bear all with you there along with visiting ancestors and their friends in amongst the trees and shrubs and woodland. As it should be!❤️

Thank you for that absolutely stunning video Collette. You and Mother Earth have co- created the most perfect work of art. So uplifting and inspiring!

Fascinating story Colette. You truly were called to where you are now and guided in every way. So beautiful and magical. Thank you for sharing. ☘

I do so admire you. I left where l had lived for 75 years and went to a country whose language l am still learning. I was lucky in that the house l bought was pretty much in tact. But the garden l am working with is a joyful challenge. It’s been 4 years and never been happier.

I often reread that first chapter of your book. It gives me such encouragement! What the determination and strength of heart of one woman can do!

Hi Colette , I was lucky enough to receive your book ... A cottage and 3 acres a couple of year's ago as a birthday gift and have read & re- read it from cover to cover many times and thoroughly enjoyed it and hearing about your move ti Ireland . It's been one hell of a journey for you . Hard back breaking work I'm sure for nearly 20 year's but the reward for all your time and effort is beyond words . The magic that you have created and the enormous joy that you bring sharing your little cottage and 3 acres with us all is much appreciated . Thankyou for creating this wonderful garden so that we get to share it with you . Colette you have turned a house into a home which is beautiful in itself but your garden is a little piece of heaven . A healing sanctuary for us all . Many blessings to you and patsy ❤❤❤ Here's to another 20 year's with you .xx

I’ll be walking with you Colette for the next 20 years and more🌹❤️

That was captivating wonderfully written and beautifully narrated, thank you

Congratulations on your 20 year anniversary. You have worked a miracle with your cottage and 3 acres. What an accomplishment from an independent Irish woman. Keep up the amazing work.

This has been such an honor to be here for Bealtaine. I can't wait to see and hear what's in store for Bealtaine Cottage for the remainder of the year!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful life with us all~You are so loved and admired ❤️ Blessings in abundance to you for another 20+ years!!! xx

Thank You for reading about your story of Bealtaine Cottage. So much you have gone through when it comes to cryings and Laughter.. You are woman fullfolling your Destiny and I was so happy for being able to listen to you rearding your first book... So again thank you!🤗💖

Just wonderful - this is one to watch over and over - thank you Colette 🥰🥰🥰

Oh my goodness. I live in suburbia but have carved out a sanctuary of my own. And i continue to make my small quarter acre more wild. I'm going to buy your books and have my daughter give them to me for winter solstice. Thank you for reading this chapter. Your voice seems to me to be the voice radiated by our dear Mother Earth. Blessed be.

♥ Happy Anniversary to you and Bealtaine Cottage. Please keep sharing - your videos bring so much hope and inspiration and relief from the dark in this world. ♥

What a gift to hear your words and story of Bealtaine Cotrage. It’s very inspiring Colette! Thank you!🐇🌷

Thank you Colette, for being here and creating the magical gardens you share. Peace and Blessings for the next 20 years!🌻🏡🌲🌳🪴

I recently made a move from the hustle and bustle of a city career to a small home in a rural country hamlet. Although the energies of the Canadian Prairies are vastly different from those of Ireland, I can certainly relate to the sense of healing and tranquility rural living offers, a world away from corporate dependencies. You and Bealtaine Cottage provided me with much of the strength and vision I needed to get to this place. Thank you and congratulations on 20 years of inspiration for so many of us!

I have your book & love it- but PLEASE keep reading! I am working around my home and listening to you read this is so affirming and enjoyable… Read on!

Thanks for speaking on more magic and metaphysical 🎇

Congratulations on everything you have achieved at Bealtaine Cottage! It is so beautiful, everything is thriving there (including yourself!) and is a wonderful testament to your hard work and perseverance ❤

Amazing courage to start all over again and succeed, beautiful cottage and grounds, anyone's dream

One of my most fave of all your videos! Reminds me of Emerson: “Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and make a trail.”

Dear Collette 🪴. This is absolutely stunning. My favourite video on your channel. I will HAVE to read your book. I loved every second of listening to your calming soft Irish voice telling your wonderful story. I have just last week had a garden makeover - and with your beautiful gardens in mind - I tried to base mine on yours!! However, my garden is only small - but I love it. Thank you Collette for making your watchers so happy and relaxed through your beautiful videos and books 🌸🪴🌸. God Bless Maureen Liverpool. My great Grandparents were all from Ireland 🇮🇪 🥰. xxxx

Oh my, what an absolute accomplishment. Dear Collette, the way you've worked with mother earth is so amazing and beautiful. Those colours, the light... pure magic and serenity. It does make one want to tear up, in gratitude and with love. Best wishes, Anna 🍃🌹🍃🍃

Thanks Collette for sharing your time and your book reading this lovely day. Change is inevitable and the clarity of your own life with a strong and positive attitude and a dream of finding the right place for you to shine your love light and live in a healthy relationship with embracing Change. WOW ! This is so obviously a big impact on your journey with creative passion and dedication to live harmoniously with love and care. ❤ Following your own wisdom and knowledge and trusting in your intuitive way of understanding. Such a magnificent blessing and a celebration of your life with the fine art of living ❤

Please do keep reading. I enjoyed your soothing musical voice so much. It’s a balm for the soul to hear about Bealtaine Cottage

What a wonderful way to spend twenty years of your life, creating a paradise and beautiful home, that you can share with us so that we can enjoy and feel so uplifted and inspired by. Love to you🌿🌳🌿

To say it is all but mind-boggling what you have created starting from absolute nothing. Would be an understatement. Had I personally ever lived in one location more than 3 years at a time, I wonder if it would have been possible for me to accomplish it? Or, does my imagination and determination even remotely stand along for such an adventure. I am beyond amazed at your world. I thoroughly enjoyed your first chapter. Thank you.

Thank you Dear Colette for the reading and commentary. I am moved almost beyond words by your voice, your words and thoughts and by the miracle of your “three boggy acres”. What a gift it is to share with your viewers. From my heart, my gratitude.

Happy birthday to Bealtaine cottage 🌱🎊 Utterly enjoyed listening, much gratitude for sharing 🙏🏽💚☀️🌿

Keep celebrating Colette, this is your moment to pat yourself on the back and say all the hard work was worth it. I was at work yesterday and a stranger popped in and we talked about how we both were trying to make our land connect with nature. The stranger said have you seen the amazing work the lady at bealtaine cottage has done. I laughed and said she’s my hero. Your inspiration is seeping through the veins of the earth. Thank you for Beautiful video.

I loved hearing you tell your story. I found it cathartic, almost like I lived it too. When you know you need out of a situation, that you will find a way of making the dream a reality. It makes wan appreciate everything because you pour your heart and soul into the land and home. I love how you work with nature and respect mother nature. I used to live in a cottage for 13 years and I use to sense the previous owners. 2 brothers and a sister. I could sense the sister the most and sometimes one of the brothers. I remember when I'd be on my own that I would say to the sister, Daisy is it ok if I make myself a cup of tea. Almost like it was still their home. I definitely had a strong psychic connection when I was younger. I think what you are doing is incredible and inspiring ❤

Collette You are an inspiration What a woman Strong and courageous Well done to you May you continue having good health and happiness

Admire your strength and words more than I can say.😊

Probably one of the best videos you've ever posted! That paradise of yours is something to behold! Blessings to you too and here's to another 20 years!!🥃... and Irish one...

Love your content Collette I have your book and your such an inspiration ♥️

I live in BC Canada which is a beautiful part of the world, but must say i have always had a love for Ireland. Your cottage and property is just lovely and i thoroughly enjoyed your reading of the first chapter of your book. Cheers from a fellow gardener ❤

Beyond Beautiful transformation and journey 🙏✨ thank you, so much love & gratitude 🌱🌸🤗🌈

Beautiful Colette thank you so much for sharing this 😊 x

Your videos make me want to climb through the computer screen and join you at Bealtine Cottage. My GGGrandad was from Wexford and GGgrandma from Wicklow.

Happy Anniversary Colette 💖 20 years, such an achievement!! This reading moved me to tears..you have are a light 🕯️ in the darkness. What an incredible inspiration to us all. You express what I feel also..a call to heal and live with Mother Earth. Love & Blessings to you & Patsy 💚✨

i feel like i am in heaven when i see your garden, so wonderfully wild and orderly and natural, there must be so many elementals there in that home, i feel the magic coming through the screen. i love trees but they are cutting them down ancient woodlands where i am, and in Wales, Scotland, Canada which is so heartbreaking as they are the lungs of the planet. My local woods have been closed to the public which was enjoyed by many, as they are with the pine forests in Wales, now just a wasteland

Thankyou for providing me with some calm in an otherwise chaotic scary world. Your beautiful oasis is something sadly I will never attain but so pleased you allow me and thousands of others to sit for a while in yours. Blessings and light to you and little Patsy ⭐️🪴🐾💫✨

Speaking of the metaphysical, while watching your video as you walk through the woods, feels as though I have traveled back in time into an ancient woodland, which is magical. Thank you ever so much for sharing your garden.❤

Love your writing and love of nature. I believe we are of kindred spirit.

Im in Ireland currently on almost an identical journey. Solo female looking for that property and abandoned cottage where i can create abundance, connect to the land and to the spirits and the ancestors. Thanks for sharing your journey . Thank goddess for your ability to, not only hear The Call, but the take action ❤

What a beautiful story and transformation, Colette. I hope that I can find my copy of A Cottage and Three Acres, to revisit your story. I made a move over 3 years ago, now. A hard and difficult move, But I have a home albeit small by your measure. The move, new environment and my home have grown on me now. And I am now after a long hibernation … ready to take it on. And to create an oasis. 🙏💚 You are such a blessed inspiration. The way you live. The story you tell thru Bealtaine. I have watched you for a long time now. I love the blue (oil) lamp in your opening scene … such a beautiful color. And, might I ask - what is the name of the tall wispy, flower (lavender color) that envelops your charming wooden bench? Where the plump bumble bee seeks the nectar? I must plant the same around my back garden bench. Bealtaine … sigh 🙇‍♀️ has transformed into such a lovely home and garden. The little (perfect shade of blue) cottage for you and your dear little Patsy.🙏💙💜🌙 Might I say: remembering your dear sweet Jack, today. He was such a dear boy. Thank you for sharing. 🤎

Happy Anniversary Collette! The reading and walk through the cottage land has warmed my heart! Thank you for sharing💖

❤ truly magnificent story, hugs to you and Patsy 🐾

It’s wonderful to get to hear your book read by you. I love every book you’ve written and anxiously await the next. Anyone that’s not read them I can’t praise them highly enough.

Thanks Collette. I really enjoyed that. You help me to keep my spirits up. Ann

Oh my, as you just said in the video after I paused it, you have revealed what Mother Earth had created at Bealtaine Cottage land in the beginning, which you have restored with her support. 🙏❤

Many years ago you inspired me deeply on my son and my journey. For I have made moves in my life in a similar fashion and it continues to produce joy.Thank you.

A truly inspirational and fantastic story about the origins and your determination to bring about the much loved and admired all over the world Bealtaine! It took such courage, faith , foresight, and hard work! Amazing! Well done, you have such a beautiful home and so well deserved! Many blessings to you and little Patsy ❤❤

What you and the Goddess have achieved is amazing! Blessings!

That was lovely and what a journey you've been on. I'm so thankful that you decided to share that journey with me and everyone else who truly understand what that's all about.

Sometimes you just have put up the spinnaker sail and see where it takes you. Courage to change, hard work and trusting yourself is a wise way to live and evolve. You created your own paradise ❤

Dear Colette, Happy Anniversary, Bealtaine Cottage has become a piece of paradise, so very beautifull and peaceful, you are a very brave woman and I admire you for your strength and persistence.

beautiful ! thank you so much for sharing the magic of your home and the work you have done, its such a lifeline, source of hope and connection to the joy of nature! heres to another 20 yrs of magic X

Get another beautiful video Colette.. I do love that book and have carried it with me many times.. It's a book that represents 'Hope' and 'Dreams' which at many times through I need reminders of.. Your books give me that. Blessings ✨✨

You’re so talented in so many ways. Your ability to put into words is one of your many talents. I’m so glad I found your KZfaq channel.

Beautiful video Colette❤❤❤❤

A beautiful life @ Bealtaine Cottage... 🥰

Turning a piece of lackluster land into a beautiful landscape is something many people could not get a grip on. This is proof that if anyone wants something of this magnitude one will need to work hard at making it work. The fact that Bealtaine Cottage did not look this way overnight proves that one does not need to be a millionaire to achieve this.

Beautiful story. Beautiful home.

Happy 20th anniversary❤. Your garden is a wonderful and peaceful place,so is your cosy cottage. You had so much work with all of that....but it is a special treasure❤😊.

Thank you for you'r story ❤ The garden is so magical and beautiful. 🌿🌳💚🌳🌿
