AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @p AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @pottersresortsfivelakes with @slwilson84. It was an action packed three nights with a full activity and entertainment programme, great food, lovely drinks and beautiful surroundings. 

The staff go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home and they ensure that everyone has the best time possible. I don’t think I stopped smiling all weekend.

The best thing about Potters holidays is that everything is included in the price you pay. Four meals a day, all your drinks - including wine, Prosecco, most spirits and soft drinks - great accommodation and so many activities. 

I’ll write a full review soon but for now here’s a little Reel of our weekend
I always have a lot of questions about accommodati I always have a lot of questions about accommodation when we stay anywhere as a family so I thought I’d share this little tour of our room at @windjammerlanding which was a pretty perfect place to stay.

It’s the ‘Ocean View Two Bedroom’ which was like a little house, with an upstairs and downstairs, built into the hillside. Both rooms had outdoor space and their own shower rooms. Such a great option for a family.

We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in S We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in St Lucia staying at @windjammerlanding and it was just the holiday we needed. Two weeks of sunshine and relaxation in what must be one of the most beautiful islands in the world. 

We can’t wait to go back again in the future. Here’s just a little snippet of our trip.
AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @na AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @national_motor_museum despite the rain! The children loved the Little Beaulieu play area and we loved exploring the National Motor Museum and Top Gear exhibit before having a ride on the monorail! We went on an old open topped bus, explored the Beaulieu Manor House and loved the gardens. 
Beaulieu is always a great day out - whatever the weather. This summer they have a whole ‘Summer of Fun’ planned, with activities most days - parades, bird shows and hundreds of sculptures within the grounds too. If you’re looking for a day out this summer definitely think about heading to Beaulieu.
AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to t AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to their first concert - but it was so much more than just a concert! @abbavoyage is incredible. With CGI ABBA and a live band, it’s like being at an ABBA concert 40 years ago but with modern lighting, effects and sound. ABBA look and sound real, it’s a mind blowing experience.
The set includes all the songs you know and love as well as a few less familiar ones.
You can’t take photos during the show which actually made a refreshing change. A whole arena focused purely on the show and soaking up the moment. It’s definitely something the four of us will always remember.
Now, I’m off to sing Dancing Queen all the way home.
AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdo AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdockyard today. They have a fantastic Ultimate Explorer ticket that lets you visit all the attractions as many times as you like for 12 months - and after a day at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard we can see that you need more than one day to really do everything!

We explored HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Exhibition - which is incredible! We also saw where ships are built and restored and spent time in Action Stations where the kids climbed and did an assault course.

Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is such a fun, educational day out with something for all ages - we can’t wait to go on their harbour tours next time we visit!

Fun at Woking Park Playground

Since lockdown we have been trying to spend more time close to home, exploring local areas around Surrey and really just appreciating the area we live a little bit more. One place we drove to a couple of weeks ago was Woking Park, somewhere I had always heard good things about.

Play areas vary so much don’t they? Our closest one, within walking distance, is pretty rubbish. It’s run down, covered in graffiti and the swing frame doesn’t even have swings on. Thankfully it’s being redeveloped next year but until then we really appreciate fantastic play areas when we find them – and Woking Park was a real ‘wow’ playground.

Is there parking at Woking Park?

Woking Park is right next to Woking Leisure Centre, managed by Freedom Leisure, and has a car park beside it too. The Woking Park car park has three hours free parking which is a great length of time to be able to enjoy the Woking Park play area without any cost.

I took a thermos of tea and a book and settled down on a bench which the children played. They could have stayed there for hours!

The park has a really wide range of play equipment for all ages with a zip line, huge adventure play structures, so much to climb on and features being made from the hills and greenery in the park too.

The children loved the swings, the seesaw and the slides – simple playground pleasures. But, they also loved climbing, exploring and playing hide and seek!

Woking Park playground is vast and one of the nicest parks in Woking. Every time we turned a corner we found something new for the children to play on and they really got excited when the grass floor turned to sand!

There’s a big ship climbing frame that they enjoyed using to act out their own adventures and it’s in the middle of a big sandy play area. The children could have spent all day in the sand – especially as there was a water play area too. It was great fun and definitely a highlight of our day out.

Woking Park is a great size, with so many different activities and pieces of play equipment. The children absolutely loved it and we only headed home as it started to get busy.

As with any really great park, it’s popular. So, if you go, expect there to be a lot of people. Adults were able to easily socially distance but when it became impossible for the children to do the same we went home but the children still had a couple of hours of great fun in the park and I’m sure we’ll go again before too long.

You can find out more about Woking Park over on the Woking Borough Council website and for reference the postcode is GU22 9BA.
