I know I have mentioned this many times before..but I absolutely love Cornwall. I love the rugged coastline. I love the beautiful turquoise waters. I love the independent shops and restaurants. We also love St Ives. Cornwall is a beautiful place to visit and makes for a fabulous motorhome trip in the UK. There are also…
We have been looking for quite some time for a compact stroller that is not only great for travelling but that stores easily in the campervan. I have to say, with five of us in the campervan, storage is tight and we have to be really clever with what we take with us and how…
My Personalised Case Review For as long as I remember, I have always loved taking photos. It is true what they say – a picture is worth a thousand words – and there really is nothing better than looking back through old photographs and smiling at the good, the bad and the ‘not so styled’.…
A Weekend stay at Cameron Lodges Sitting on the balcony of our apartment at Cameron Lodges, I looked out to the calm and still waters of Loch Lomond…it was so very peaceful and so very quiet. All I could hear was the sound of the birds tweeting. It was cloudy, yet warm, and we were…
Walking along the path I look up to find a few people dressed as sheep coming towards me….. Our girls are jumping around dressed in their usual tutu, head garland and wellies combination, there is a man walking around on stilts, and I can hear the buzz from the campfire songs and trumpets in the…
Books and activities for kids to take on a road trip Ad- Paid collaboration If you have followed my blog for a while, you will already know that we are big fans of a road trip! Why? Well I love the freedom that a road trip brings, I love that we are not restricted to times,…
Outdoor fun with Micro Scooters Outdoor life and fresh air. You can’t beat it. We try to get out most weekends, whatever the weather…I find it is good for the soul. I have to say though, just lately our family walks have often ended before they have really started, with myself and the hubby carrying…
Experience Days We are always on the lookout for different ways to create memories. Before the arrival of our three littles,…
Winfields ‘Walk and Talk’ Campaign When Winfields Outdoors recently got in touch and told me about their ‘Walk and Talk’ Campaign, I knew I had to get involved. Winfields have created their ‘Walk and Talk’ campaign to promote the wonderful benefits that getting outside can have on your mental health health and wellbeing. The campaign…
Beach days and rockpooling in Cornwall We have just spent a wonderful February half term break enjoying lots of beach days and rockpooling in Cornwall. We were so lucky, the sun shone, the sky was a deep shade of blue and the sea twinkled. Hard to believe that it was February. I have a real…
Before heading off in the campervan, I do try to give some thought to our meals and snacks. If we are heading away for the weekend, I often think ahead and try to prepare meals at home. We have a fridge and freezer in the camper, so preparing meals beforehand at home can save so…
Why do we love to travel with kids? “Are we nearly there yet” ….As we just pull out of our drive. ” I need the toilet desperately!!!! “…. As we are stuck in a traffic jam on the M6 “Oh no….I have left Peppa on my pillow!!!” …..As we are just about to go through…
I am a dreamer. I love to be spontaneous, and I love an adventure. For as long as I can remember I have dreamt of owning a campervan. The idea of throwing a few essentials into the van and hitting the road, in search of rolling hills, lakes or sea air…well there really is nothing…
I have had a love for travel for as long as I remember. Before children, myself an Mr S would spend our last pound on holidays, weekends away and trips… quietly ticking off our bucket list as we went along. Since having children, I genuinely believe travel has become even more important to us. We…
12 great UK getaways with kids We have never been very good at planning our weekend breaks, road trips or holidays. We always seem to spend the first weekend of the holidays frantically looking for inspiration for a short break or a last-minute family holiday. This year is going to be different and I am already…
*Collaborative post I really love this time of year. That time when Christmas and New year has passed by just as quickly as it arrived. Those weeks after, when everyone seems to slow down, enjoy the slower pace and the simple things after the busy run up to the festive period. We recently returned from…
*Collaborative post. 7 reasons why cruises are great for families Deciding on a family holiday seems to get harder and harder every year. There are so many wonderful destinations to choose from and it can be difficult to make the call. We spend so much time in our campervan travelling around the UK, but sometimes…
I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love to take photographs. I have always been the same. A five minute walk takes an hour because I have to stop and take a million photographs. I love to get up early to capture that beautiful sunrise and I am the one sitting on the beach…
I love to plan a holiday or a winter break. There is nothing better than spending an evening or two surfing the internet in search of that perfect trip. Picking the perfect destination for a break is always an exciting task, don’t you think? We often try to squeeze in a few weekend breaks, particularly…
And just like that…2017 comes to an end almost as quickly as it arrived. I have to say I didn’t really know what I was doing when I started my little travel blog at the end of last year. I had talked about writing a blog for so long, and my little maternity leave ‘project’…
There is something about a heavy snowfall, twinkling Christmas lights, candles flickering in the window and the magic of the snowman playing on the TV that just seems to set a scene for the perfect Christmas image, don’t you think? We had had our first proper heavy snowfall in years. Standing from our Kitchen window…
