Last month we were kindly invited to explore the buzzing heritage town of Westport with a complimentary stay at The Harbour Mill Apartments and a family pass to Westport House on behalf of Destination Westport.
Late last year Girona Camping Association and Costa Brava Tourism invited me to experience camping, glamping and all things inbetween across Costa Brava WITHOUT my kids. They didn’t have to ask me twice! Here is how I got on, including the highlights from my trip, my favoutire campsite and what I would highly recommend.

Earlier this summer we were very kindly invited to discover and explore Paradise Wildlife Park, a family-run animal park located in Broxbourne in Hertfordshire. Paradise Wildlife Park is different from your average zoo or animal park, they have DINOSAURS. So, of course, I jumped at the chance and added to our list of adventures. (more…)
There comes a time in your parenting life when you come to terms with never wanting to see a labour ward ever again, right? (more…)
What a summer. Lads it was non-stop. I got a childminder for it though, my guardian angel as my friends know her by. I swear, I would not have got through it without her. Summer was jam-packed, without a doubt my favourite to date. (more…)
Earlier this month we visited Tipperary for the first time thanks to Tipperary Tourism on behalf on www.mykidstime.com. It’s not somewhere I’d ever think of holidaying with a young family but I have to put it on the map as a family-friendly destination for a staycation in Ireland because we had an absolute blast.

Absolutely no theme park will beat Paultons Parks, Peppa Pig World – it’s insane and I’m not even Peppa’s biggest fan. Let’s start by saying there are not enough hours in a day especially with smallies who want to go on absolutely everything but we were lucky. We went midweek as part of our UK road trip in July and luckily the kids were still in school so it worked in our favour. The best time to go to any UK theme park is the first two weeks of July, preferably midweek. (more…)
I’m not a fashion blogger, in fact, clothes, in general, don’t really spark joy in me, the way they do in some people. I do love my jackets though, I’ve probably about 20 that I’m not willing to give up as we downsize to move into our new rented accommodation this weekend. The stress is real. As a busy working mum of four, I find most days a struggle to find something half decent to wear – well that was until this little opportunity. (more…)
Last month we travelled by sea to do a theme park marathon across the UK for our summer holiday. We spent four nights in Bluestone and ventured out twice, one of those days we stopped by The Dinosaur Park in Tenby. A dream for any dinosaur mad family, like ourselves. The boy lives and breathes dinosaurs and we fed his addiction this summer with a trip The Dinosaur Park, Paradise Wildlife Park and Paulton Park. (more…)
I honestly don’t know where to start. Diggerland is basically where young and old can ride, drive and operate real full-sized construction machinery. There was dirt diggers, giant diggers, dumper trucks and mini tractors amongst many other digger themed attractions. (more…)
