A seed has been firmly planted in my mind that I want to take the family on holiday to Walt Disney World in Florida. This seed is growing at quite a rate and I predict that we will be exploring the most famous theme park in the world in the next few years. I would…
Al Fresco Holidays was a new concept to us, but as a family with young children who enjoy travelling we were keen to give it a go. Can you believe our visit to Tamarit Park was our first holiday together as a family this year considering how much I talk about family travel? That’s the problem…
Breckenridge is a beautiful and unique mountain town found in the Rockie Mountains near Colorado in the US. I’ve always loved the thought of visiting somewhere like Breckenridge, a town which, unlike others in America, still has a feel of the Wild West about it. As a kid growing up in the UK I used to…
Aruba is one of the lesser known islands in the Caribbean just off the coast of Venezuela. For some reason it’s not quite as popular as it’s neighbours in the Lesser Antilles such as Trinidad & Tobago or Antigua even though it’s just as stunning as a holiday destination.
My faith has recently been restored in the UK family holiday after our recent trip to Wales and I’m already starting to think about the next road trip. After a little research on the internet it soon became apparent that Woolacombe is the next place I would like to take the family. Now that my…
Describing the top places to visit on the ancient Island of Sicily in Southern Italy is no easy job. The Island is dotted all around with a huge variety of magical ancient monuments, naturally protected reserves, and activities of all kinds for children and adults alike. If you’ve come for the sites and the beauty,…
Remember how I recently covered places I’d like to visit as disparate as Iceland, Madagascar and Florida in my top five bucket list destinations. Well, it soon became apparent that five wasn’t quite enough. So it only seems fair to add another five must-visit travel destinations that range from glamorous European cities to famous locations in…
I have literally been looking forward to going back to Larmer Tree Festival since our first visit last year. As a family it was our first experience of camping with children and going to a family friendly festival and it really was a lot of fun. We were blown away by the quality of the…
Next week, my daughters and I are heading off to Bluestone National Park Resort in Wales for a mid week break. We are leaving the boys home alone so we can go and enjoy the beautiful Pembrokeshire beaches and get a big dose of fresh air. We are so excited! It got me thinking about how…
I have really caught the travel bug recently and I’ve been thinking about all the amazing destinations I’d love to visit. It struck me that there are so many places I could have on my travel bucket list that it could actually start to become counter productive. There is a theory that if we have long…
Going to New York with teen, and leaving the rest of the family at home was a big decision for me. No matter how excited I was about the trip, leaving the girls for what would be 5 days including the travelling, made me feel sad. Little Pudding is too young to understand and is…
If you caught my first post, Getting To New York, you’ll know that we had rather an abrupt introduction to New York City. It was somewhat amplified by the fact that we started travelling at 9am, and by the time we reached our hotel it was 3am in the morning according to the UK and our…
If you’ve been following my blog and social media, you might have noticed that I have just been to the amazing city of New York. Welcome to the first of many posts about our trip to the ‘city that never sleeps’. If you are planning a trip to New York City, I really help you…
Did you hear that we are about to visit New York? I’m sure the news has caught up with you by now. In a rather timely fashion, I have been asked to review the Independent Guide To New York City 2016. When it comes to planning for a city break, I think a guide book…
If you have been keeping up with the blog recently you’ll know that teen and I are heading off to New York next month. To say we are a bit excited about all the things we are going to do is an understatement. Packing for teen will of course come down to me, as he…
Are you heading off on a city break this year? If so, you’ll agree that nothing quite beats the excitement of venturing off to a new city. New culture, food and languages to explore, new people to meet and new experiences are to be had, and all of this has to be packed into just…
