A little apology to everyone who joined today’s Scarecrow Trail ❤️🌾

We’re really sorry to anyone who was walking around Idle today with their map looking for our scarecrow… only to find there wasn’t one! 🙈

Unfortunately, we didn’t manage to get ours ready this year and we should have made sure everyone knew.

Sorry if we sent you on a bit of a wild scarecrow chase! 😩❤️ We hope you still had a lovely time exploring the village and seeing all the fantastic scarecrows! x
