Just before Christmas, I asked my son if there was anything he still wanted to do this year. Luckily for me, he asked for a themed afternoon tea. I’d had Cupcakes 2 Love in Doncaster, South Yorkshire on my to-do list so I booked us in as pre-booking is essential. Sadly we got snowed in […]
We are lucky to live between 4 great tourist attractions in the UK that offer free returns. (Once you have paid for your first visit). Before my son started school they were absolutely fabulous days out for us as we could take along a picnic and proof of our free returns. All I really had […]
My son at the ripe old age of 8 had still not learnt how to ride a bike. He’d had a balance bike when he was a toddler but rarely used it. We then bought him a bike with stabilisers which he hated so he rarely rode it. We then bought him a bigger bike […]
Talk about last-minute plans. We were stuck between deciding on taking the caravan out again this year or doing something a bit different. So two days beforehand we booked to stay at the Knight’s Village at Warwick Castle and experience glamping for the first time. Below you will find my blog review of the Knights […]
Haven is one of our favourite Holiday Park chains to visit. It is worth noting that touring options vary and not all allow campers with tents, caravans, motorhomes and trailer tents. These sites also have static caravans to rent. Top tip if you are looking for the biggest pitch possible it pays to enter the […]
First, there was a scale version of the Moon touring around the world. Now there’s a scale version of our planet earth and it’s touring around a few places in the UK. It will be presented in art exhibitions and festivals around the world over the coming years and it is a great thing to […]
I don’t know about you but I love a weekend break at a holiday park, especially one with lots of facilities. As much as I love exploring and visiting new places sometimes it’s nice to go somewhere and not have to leave the park to find something to do. With that in mind, I’ve put […]
We LOVED and I mean LOVED our meet and greets at the two Universal parks in Florida – Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. They were such a refreshing change to our meet and greets at Disney. Now don’t get me wrong we had some amazing meet and greets at Disney World, with our highlights […]
This is a comprehensive list of all of the soft play centres in Leicestershire. It is not a list of recommendations or endorsements but ideas on where to go. We have not managed to visit all of these indoor play areas ourselves. Unless they are running limited play sessions each centre should be somewhere you […]
We love living by the sea and we will be exploring as many beaches on the East and North Yorkshire coast as much as possible. I struggle to find reviews of each beach so hopefully, this is something I can change. In each review I will cover parking, access, facilities, the potential for fossils/sandcastles/shells/rockpooling and […]
I spent hours going through websites trying to work out which were the best rides to Fast Pass at Walt Disney world, Florida. I spent an equal length of time looking at videos of the rides at all of the Disney parks. How much research did I do before we went to Universal Orlando theme […]
Mablethorpe is my favourite seaside destination on the Lincolnshire coast. A lot of people would say they prefer Skegness. For many, this is possibly the easiest resort to get to as it’s the closest to most other counties. However, I’d much rather travel the extra distance and avoid the massive queues and overpacked attractions and […]
