An absolutely WONDERFUL thing I've done recently was to book onto a Leeds Food Tour.

A few days ago my Mum and I went to do (and hopefully complete) an escape room at the UK’s longest running jail: Shepton Mallet Prison.

Last year we went on somewhat of a road trip, that took us in and out of Italy and Switzerland via Lake Como.

Aqua Sana at Longleat Forest Center Parcs is a beautiful spa offering a variety of packages for different amounts of hours.

If you're local you've probably heard there’s a festival happening in Winscombe on Saturday (19th July) but you might not realise quite how much is going on.

1 kid can eat for free for each full price adult menu bought at participating Sixes restaurants during the summer holidays this year.

The Sidcot Arms used to be a Brewer’s Fayre but it’s now a restaurant owned by a company who run lovely pubs. So is the Sidcot Arms as good as their others?

Cineworld are showing modern family faves for just £1 per ticket this summer.

I found myself in Exmouth for work last week, and as the meeting finished early I thought I’d head down for a stroll along the sea front. And now I think Exmouth is my new favourite place!

There's a new trail in town! Gromit is back in Bristol for Gromit Unleashed 3, and he's got a fab new range of disguises.

Malvern has so much to offer and is a great destination for a romantic couple's break, a solo explorer, or a family weekend.

A bit of a family favourite day out when we’re staying in South Devon, is the House of Marbles in Bovey Tracey, near Newton Abbot, with fun marble runs and a museum.

If you're heading to Bristol for a school holiday, be sure to read our guide to the top days out - both in Bristol and further afield if you can make it to Bath or Weston-super-Mare.

We had to find a day out that let grown ups chat and catch up, whilst entertaining a range of kids including 2 toddlers.

I appreciate it sounds a little contradictory to say we went somewhere for their gardens on a rainy day out in Torquay, but it was a considered choice!

If, like me, you're local to North Somerset you might have seen the very distinctive and boxy Land Rover of the North Somerset Bird of Prey Centre driving around.

Bristol Comedy Garden ran from Wednesday to Sunday last week with a great line up of house hold names.

Get Ready to Race with Build the Thrill at Lego Discovery Centre, Birmingham (5th April-29th June)

The Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue (with a name that makes me think other, different "rescue" themes could be coming another time) is based in London (of course it is), at Corner Corner, Canada Water.

Bletchley Park, home of the Enigma machine and the code breakers, is a fascinating day out for a range of ages - and free for under 12s.

I've seen ads everywhere for Six by Nico and I finally gave into the marketing and the hype and booked a table for my husband and myself for dinner for my Birthday.

My massage at Malvern Spa, and what I thought of the facilities in Malvern, Worcestershire.

We love Westonbirt Arboretum! Whether we're visiting for the walks and trails or the seasonal activities and Christmas Lights, it's fantastic, and I haven't even accounted for the runs I'm planning to take, or the concerts I keep meaning to book yet!

The new Oxford Street IKEA opens today in London, and will give shoppers 3 floors to shop - but how does that compare to other IKEAs?

Legoland Festival is exclusively coming to Legoland resorts around the world - including in Windsor UK.

The Early May Bank Holiday weekend isn't far away so you might want to start looking for ideas of things to do!

A surprising but very reasonably priced day out for all the family - have you ever thought about taking the kids to the races?!

The kids absolutely love going for breakfast here because of everything there is to see outside afterwards.

I took an 11 year old Minecraft fan, a 7 year old and a 3 year old to see A Minecraft Movie - and this is how we found it. Spoiler alert, I wish it was funnier!

We live locally to Slimbridge, and therefore love WWWT Slimbridge as a day out! Before my son started school, we visited at least once a week. The membership is so reasonable, it is definitely worth looking into! 

We went to Legoland Windsor as a family of 5 in 2022, and have just been back again in 2025 - and quite a lot has changed! Not least, the age of our kids.

Spring at Cotswold Farm Park is a brilliant time, with baby animals aplenty! This Easter we saw kids, lambs, calves, and foals, to name but a few! 

The Buzz is a large inflatable play area. Before we went, I had a few questions I was trying to find the answers to - and so now I've been, I can report back fully!

Your next TV box set binge. At first it's kind of your typical president gets shot, FBI guy is his friend, has to investigate kind of thing. But very well done. BUT THEN...

On Saturday we visited The Grand Pier in Weston-Super-Mare. The sun was shining, and the sea was in. It was perfect! 

We recently had an epic afternoon at Baboon Adventures! We did their electric scooter tour at Charlton Park Estate, Malmesbury. However, they also have a tour at Kinsclere Estate, Hamshire.

My friend and I recently spent the evening watching Emma Smith at the legendary jazz club Ronnie Scott's in Soho, London.

I recently tried, for the first time, to redeem some Tesco Club Card vouchers for tickets to Legoland Windsor, and found the process surprisingly frustrating and uncommunicative for a new visitor.

Last night I went to view a screening of an Imagine Dragons concert. I'm not a big Imagine Dragons fan, but my 11 year old loves them.

As a Primary School teacher as well as a Mum, I was interested to see the newly revamped science museum and assumed it would be a completely new day out for us, as they were closed for such a very long time after the fire.

As the iconic attraction marks it's 25th Birthday, the team at The London Eye are sharing 25 lesser-known facts about the modern landmark.

I’ve been compiling a list of treats to make birthdays even better! Loads of places will give you a freebie when it’s your special day so bookmark this post and be sure to refer back to it.

If you're looking for a relaxing but decadent, fun but laid back weekend with friends, you can't beat the Cotswolds. Especially if you and your friends are Foodies, like we are!

Yesterday we went to the national history museum in Oxford. It was EPIC! My dino-obsessed child loved becoming a Dino Detective for the morning!

On another day trip to London recently, we hit up a few sights that our kids have been learning about at school.
