A weekend away – part 2

So if you read part one of our Blue Chip Holiday’s break you’ll of seen just how stunning the lodge was and how amazingly spoilt we felt staying their. Calling it a lodge doesn’t really do it justice, if I am honest it was a little house really – full central heating the lot.  Saturday morning arrived and Maisy, my little early riser thought 4:40am was the best time to get up.

A weekend away at Furrow Fields Lodge

Last weekend the girls and I were invited by Blue Chip Holidays to stay at the beautiful Furrow Fields Lodge in Bradford Abbas – Dorset.

Butlins Bognor Regis 2014

Yesterday we got back from out first little trip as a family of 5, I’m not going to lie before we left I was bricking it I had visions of the kids running riot losing them in a busy resort, them getting bored and hating the food. But I was so pleasently suprised it was brilliant we had such a great time.  We we’re staying at butlins, Bognor Regis in the ocean hotel; the room itself was nice comfortable beds, little fridge, cupboard space, iron and hair dryer tea & coffee facilities all in there already. The girls had there…
