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 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!

They’ve both had a great year at school this year. Troy’s first without his sister by his side and Athena’s first at secondary school. 

They both had great reports, always did their best and have made some really lovely new friends this year. I could not be more proud of them.

Now, let’s go and enjoy the next six weeks before school starts all over again!

Ready for Autumn with Regatta

Disclosure: We were sent the featured products for the purpose of this post however all opinions are my own.

As a family, we love the outdoors and go on outdoor adventures all year round. However, I’m the first to admit that I’m never very prepared for anything other than sunshine. Whilst the children have wellies and waterproofs, I always forget about myself and just grab the nearest clothing and footwear. Until now.

Ready for Autumn with Regatta

At the end of the summer holidays, Regatta sent me some beautiful yet practical walking boots and a new coat to set me up for the changing weather of the coming months. I now feel more prepared for autumn adventures than I have ever been before and it’s such a welcome change.

Ready for Autumn with Regatta

I may be 36, but I’ve never owned a pair of walking boots – despite often walking miles at weekends with the children, going here, there and everywhere. It’s something I’ve never really thought about, and it’s only now having a pair of walking boots that I realise the huge amount of benefits that come with them.

Having new boots that fit my feet perfectly, offer great support and allow my feet to breathe is such a novelty – and something I’m sure I’ll cherish going forward. I’ve never had such comfortable boots – ones that I take off and my feet feel as happy as they did when I first put them on.

Ready for Autumn with Regatta

I usually wear my normal footwear when we’re out and about – trainers or boots that are made with fashion in mind rather than comfort and durability. But having walking boots has already made such a difference. They grip so well on every surface and help me feel so safe from slipping wherever we’re walking.

Plus, the boots are waterproof – I’ll no longer end up with wet socks and soggy feet! I know that having a good, durable pair of walking boots is something that my feet are going to thank me for.

Team the boots with a gorgeous waterproof jacket and I’m all set for the autumn. With so many pockets, a breathable design and water repellent finish, it’s the perfect coat for everything from the school run to big adventures. It’s super lightweight yet keeps me warm and dry.

Ready for Autumn with Regatta

Thanks to Regatta, I am now kitted out for the changing weather and ready for all the outdoor adventures we can fit into the autumn and winter. I can’t wait to get exploring – and we already have lots of plans for the upcoming half term too!
