We were invited to Studley Castle Hotel in exchange for this review. As we turned onto the drive away of Studley Castle, nothing could have prepared us for what lay ahead. As we took the bend onto the tree lined avenue the beautiful Studley Castle Hotel stood proudly in the distance beckoning us to join…
Contains affiliate links If you are planning a visit to Carlisle soon I’m super excited for you. This historic 2000 year old city has a lot going for it and is well worth a trip in its own right or adding to a UK holiday exploring the north west of England. With two areas of…
Family Day Out at Twinlakes Last half term the girls had an inset day following the week off. I went online and had a look at Twinlakes ticket prices, and because it was ‘off peak’ to them it was just £8.50 a ticket. It was a no brainer really, I booked tickets for Indie, Brook…
Drayton Manor’s Magical Christmas is back for 2018 and it’s the perfect day out for the festive season. We took Indie, 6 years old, and Brook, 4 years old, back to Drayton Manor Park after a 2 year break. I’m really not sure why we left it so long as it’s always been one of…
October half term meant the chance for the girls and I to enjoy a a short break in Chester with Roomzzz Aparthotel. None of us have visited Chester before, which is pretty ridiculous for a family that loves city breaks. We’d also not stayed at Roomzzz Aparthotel either, so we were really looking forward…
I’m really not a huge fan of having a bored 4 year old and 6 year old at home over the summer holidays. Can you relate? We’ve actually been on the look out for some new days out near Nottingham to take Brook and Indie for this very reason. Our visit to Timber Festival in…
If you are looking for the top things to do in Liverpool with kids then you have definitely come to the right place. I’ve always thought of Liverpool as one of the best cities to visit in Europe and the UK and I’m really looking forward to sharing my ideas with you. Liverpool is a…
If you are planning things to do with kids in Bristol any time soon, then I really think that a visit to the SS Great Britain should make it to the top of your list. We were lucky enough to visit recently with the girls, and were completely inspired by what turned out to be…
I’m the first person to admit that staying in a hostel probably isn’t my first choice when it comes to planning a road trip, but when I saw the pictures of The Bristol Wing I could see it featuring in our family travel plans. This new hostel in Bristol is fun and funky and a…
Glamping at Warwick Castle is probably one of the best castle stays in the UK for children. We were lucky enough to stay in a Warwick Castle Knights Lodge last year which we loved and were overjoyed when we were asked to come and stay over at the new Warwick castle glamping for 2018…
Glamping with kids is one of the easiest and best ways to get your children enjoying the outdoors at this time of year. We were lucky enough to be invited to Wigwam® Holidays Millside near Grantham recently and I was super excited to be able to take the girls glamping in Lincolnshire and spending some quality…
We hadn’t even reached the reception at Darwin Forest Country Park near Matlock in Derbyshire, before my husband was planning a visit to one of their luxury holiday lodges without us. Don’t get me wrong, he loves our family holidays, but he doesn’t get to experience many child free breaks these days. He was really…
When it comes to keeping teenagers entertained, we know it can be a bit of a challenge. It’s inevitable, unfortunately, that they’ll grow out of the activities that used to get them excited and the adventures that used to get them bouncing out of bed on the weekends soon become a thing of the past….
On the day well left Camp Katur and our little Hobbit House on the Camp Hill Estate we decided we would go and explore Hackfall Woods near Masham. We thought it would be a nice idea to take a little walk before the 3 hour drive back to Nottingham. Now, it’s safe to say that I didn’t…
Even when the weather takes a turn for the worse, the family still needs a good day out to lift the spirits. If you are looking for places to visit or things to do with the kids this Autumn, I’ve got 5 tried and tested family days out I think you will love. Drayton Manor…
