Help! It’s that time of year again. Gift ideas for my son’s teachers are needed. What do I do when I need help? Well, I turn to some fellow talented bloggers for some inspiration. We are planning on making their gifts this year but it would be nice to make them something they’d actually appreciate. […]
I had repeatedly seen great recommendations for Mythos Restaurant at Islands of Adventure, Universal Florida. So once we had our stay at Cabana Bay Beach Resort Universal booked I then booked us a table at Mythos. It’s one of the few restaurants at Universal that you can pre-book online for. You need a park entry […]
Trevornick near Newquay, Cornwall offers a range of different ways to camp. Whether you have your own tent or caravan or wish to stay in a static caravan, this is a highly recommended 5-star family and dog-friendly site. Our choice for this short break for myself, my husband and our son was a stay in […]
On August 29, 2011, Disney extended their magical offerings by opening Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa on the coast of O’ahu, Hawaii. Working hand in hand with locals, Walt Disney Imagineers integrated some Disney magic with the rich traditions of the Hawaiian Islands to bring families a relaxing Disney experience away from the crowded theme parks […]
When we booked our 3-week family holiday to Florida we weren’t totally sure that we would go to Universal. We knew little about it as all of my research had been about Disney World and where to stay for a break after Disney. Originally we had looked at going to the Florida Keys for the […]
We love to eat out. After living in France for 14 years eating out becomes a big part of you. Jamie at 4, I am sure, has eaten out more than most kids have by the time they reach 10. Because we love to eat out I did an awful lot of research into where […]
Three years in a row now we have been going to see the grey seals and their pups at Donna Nook Nature Reserve in Lincolnshire. There aren’t many places in the UK where the seals go in such great numbers. Donna Nook is one of only 10 places and is a seal-watching paradise. Most years […]
The special thing about Animal Kingdom Lodge at Disney World is that they have a Savanna at the back of the hotels where they have African animals roaming around. So if you are thinking of staying there a view from your room overlooking the animals can certainly be something you’d like to have. Disney knows […]

Eurocamp only accepts the very best holiday parks into their range, so guests can be sure they will find the very best facilities, in the most beautiful of locations. They […]
I won’t lie we have struggled in the past with a long-haul road trip with our son. He was two years old at the time and we travelled 13 hours in the car in two days with just a short ferry crossing and a night stop in between. He was an absolute nightmare and the […]
It’s easy to forget how lucky we are, living in the South West with a seemingly endless coastline to discover. We ventured a bit further down the coast to Trevornick Holiday Park, just 5 miles from Cornwall’s surfing capital of Newquay. Trevornick is a family-run campsite next to Holywell Bay, a large sandy National Trust […]
Look what opened not so long ago zat Legoland Gardaland in Italy. This is the kind of water park I guess the UK can only dream of. But we could have one and put a roof over it, right? Or failing that maybe this is somewhere to play a future holiday to? It looks great […]
