I grew up near Windsor (in fact I went to school in the town for a number of years). Since then my parents have moved away but we still find the time to visit as and when we can. We recently returned on a gorgeously hot weekend over Easter. Here are my top tips for… Continue reading Top Tips for a family day in Windsor
Legoland Discovery Centre is the ultimate indoor Lego playground with 3 rides, 10 Lego build and play zones, a 4D cinema and much more! Top Tips 1. Book in advance - The attraction regularly sells out, especially during school holidays and weekends. 2. Book a slot for early or late in the day - Once… Continue reading Lego Discovery Centre – Birmingham
Updated June 2024 Before children my husband and I enjoyed an annual ski holiday (definitely a holiday and not a trip!). Since having our two children we’ve managed to ski most years (mostly in France - Val Thorens and Courchevel 1850). I’m not going to lie, it is an expensive holiday and at first glance… Continue reading Top Tips for a Family-friendly ski and snowboard holiday
New Year is one of those funny occasions as parents - you feel like you should be doing something but in reality you have nowhere to go and the chances of getting a baby sitter are slim at best.

'Camping with kids? You must be mad'. This was what I heard for months before we set off on our first camping trip as a family of 4. We had both regularly camped before having the children and we'd taken our eldest camping (in Spain at the same campsite) when she was 18 Months. Since then… Continue reading Camping at El Delfin Verde Resort, Costa Brava
It's one of those places that you just have to go to with little people (well at least that's what I told my husband!)...but my goodness the amount of information and various choices you have to make (all of which have a cost implication) is simply boggling (and it's not often I feel overwhelmed when… Continue reading Top Tips for a budget friendly trip to Disneyland Paris
My husband and I were students in Cardiff (for way too many years!). During this time we were lucky to be able to explore the length and breadth of Wales. One of our favourite places was/is Pembrokeshire - there is something about the remoteness of it that makes you totally switch off. It is real… Continue reading A staycation in St Davids, Pembrokeshire
Just ordered a couple of Solar Buddies as per your recommendation for our holiday next week. You’re my family travel guru!
Ghent wasn’t really on my radar until reading your blog, but when we were staying nearby in Lille with our 14 month old son we thought we would have a day trip there (it’s only an hour’s drive from Lille). We are so glad we did – it is beautiful! We loved Bruges which we… Continue reading A family trip to Northern France – thank you MummyandMe
