I left off in my last post in a packed car, singing to Moana as we headed from Cornwall to Devon for part two of our half term break. We arrived at Andrewshayes Holiday Park at about 8pm, all pretty exhausted from a busy day we wasted no time in unpacking our bits and getting a good night sleep. First impressions were great the caravan was immaculate, well equipped and had loads of storage. I was so excited to see we had been upgraded from a luxury 3 bed to a luxury 3 bed WITH HOT TUB! Well it took…

As you may have spotted on my social media a few weeks ago the girls, Scott and I headed west for a few days in the cornish countryside. I love Cornwall, it’s one of those places that brings back so many fond childhood memories for me. I spent many summers visiting my grandparents in Cornwall, it’s a place I want my children to experience as I did. We were invited down to Rumsdale Cottage by Cornish Traditional Cottages for a few days of family fun. Half term was so welcome; as much as I love having a routine the school…

It feels like an absolute age ago but was in fact only two weeks back that the girls and I took a trip to our favourite Cornish town St.Ives to enjoy our half term break. You may remember back in the summer we visited St.Ives and all hell broke loose as chicken pox reared it’s ugly head and ruined our little family break. Tregenna Castle came to our rescue and invited us back to do our trip right this time and I am so happy they did! We were staying in one Tregenna’s self catering cottages this time around rather than the…

If you follow me on social media you may have spotted the girls and I went off on a little adventure last week to Cornwall. We were invited back to Tregenna Castle to stay for a few days and enjoy all that the beautiful St.Ives coast has to offer. We stayed at Tregenna Castle back in July and after one lovely day chicken pox struck my girls and needless to say the trip was kinda ruined as we headed home early, spotty and shattered. Thankfully this time we had no such dramas just a fun few days me and my…

Last Thursday I took the plunge, I took all three of my little ladies up to London, in the summer holidays. Am I mad taking 3 children aged 5 and under into the busiest city in the country? Yes probably but I am not one to ever miss out so off we went. The train was so busy even at off peak times but we managed to get some seats, the girls each had a magazine which kept them happy for the duration of the journey. We has a couple of things to do in London, I was attending an…

Long car journeys with young children are never going to be overly fun are they, no-one wakes up and says ‘hmm come on family, lets go sit in the car for four hours today – it’ll be awesome’. It is the thing that most of us parents dread a little, you know it’s guna be a lovely day out or holiday but the traveling is just going to be a night mare. I have had quite a few long drives with the kids recently including 4 hours to visit Bluestone in Wales, as you can imagine with 3 children vs 1…

The girls and I recently took ourselves back off to the Pembrokeshire country side to visit one of our favourite places in the UK – Bluestone National Park Resort, this is the third time we have been and we still absolutely love it and would visit time and time again. This time we were staying in a St David’s Lodge. As we always get so many questions about which accommodation is best at Bluestone I thought I would answer it all here for you. Which lodge is best for families at Bluestone Wales? We were staying in the stunning St…
