What is recorded here
A narrow stone path climbs through heather to a small red building beside Cluny Castle. The teahouse serves hot drinks and sweet cakes to people who walk far for clean air and company. Rain may fall outside while steam fogs the glass and laughter fills the room. The castle stands above them like a guard that has stopped worrying about enemies.
