*We were provided with this experience for the purpose of this post however all opinions are my own.

Last weekend we had a really lovely break away as a family at the Whittlebury Park Hotel and Spa Resort in the Northamptonshire countryside.

One thing we love when we go on holiday is playing games together, as a family or couple. We’ll play games on the beach, whilst enjoying pre-dinner drinks, after dinner or once the kids are in bed out on the balcony. It’s such a nice way to pass the time.

The Books I Read {2022}

December 29, 2022

It’s that time of the year where I share all the books I’ve read over the course of the year. I always try and read more than I read the year before but, to be honest, my main focus is enjoying reading – and I’ve definitely succeeded at that this year!

Visiting the Rampion Visitor Centre in Brighton

January 3, 2023December 21, 2022

As a family, we quite often enjoy going out for the day during the spring and summer to Brighton. We play on the penny arcades, get fish and chips on the pier and the children enjoy paddling in the sea.

On our last visit, we discovered the Rampian Visitor Centre, nestled under one of the red brick arches on the seafront. Free to enter, we decided to see what it was all about.

We had a weekend in London for Dave’s birthday and booked a hotel through Hotels.com – Arosfa Hotel in Fitzrovia. I had no idea what to expect from the hotel as there’s very little information online, but it was a good price, well located and had breakfast included.

Last night we were invited to see Cinderella at The Anvil in Basingstoke. It was their opening night and we couldn’t wait to see the show. The Anvil is a fantastic theatre, in the heart of Basingstoke town centre, and they always put on a great show.
