A blog mostly written by Lynsey and sometimes read by Josh (who is usually in the mountains) that aims to document our life in rural North Wales, the homebase for Crashpad Lodges. Here you will find everything from how we manage and run our off-grid accommodation business, our journey to become sustainable, crafting new interior items to weathering the weather!

Being successful and how Crashpad Lodges is the new Rolls Royce of our time.
Last week I listened to a podcast that spoke about how people are re-defining what success means. According to the podcast success as we know it today is measured by what we wear, what car we drive, how many likes on Instagram we have, the career, the house, being able to multitask and have it all. The list goes on. The podcast went onto suggest that the measure of success is starting to change with a noted discomfort surrounding ostentatious spending and displays of wealth. Driven by this new outlook growing amounts of people are moving towards smaller culture laden goods that speak volumes, items with provenance, buying local bread and homemade soaps - once seen as humble products into everyday luxuries. In North Wales small artisans have been doing such that for the example Dinorwig Gin, Purple Moose Ale and Heartland Coffi who are all starting to see rapid success due to this new luxury and shift in mind-set.
