Fairground Frights At Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach! From the 26th of October to the 30th Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach will once again be transformed from its usual family friendly tourist attraction of rides, smiles and ice creams to the fright night shennanigans which have put it very firmly on the map for Halloween half term in Norfolk. Five whole nights of ghoulish fun and frolics with the back drop of the fun fair and a whole host of scares. We’ve […]
Days Out
London Transport Museum – October Half Term: Secrets Of The City! When we lived in London we visited the London Transport Museum usually at least once a week. The great thing about this place is that kids go FREE and once you buy an adult ticket (currently £21 for peak entry and £18.50 off peak – off peak is term time and summer holidays only after 2pm) it counts as an annual meaning you can visit unlimited times for a […]
October 2022 At Pensthorpe! We love ALL the seasons at Pensthorpe. The gardens change and move and grow. They become different colours and different places yet one thing is always the same, it’s a calm and beautiful place to be. I like each season for different reasons and have different places I like to walk depending on the weather and at Halloween half term, a time we have always been very fond of a visit in particular, my favourite way […]
Duxford Air Show! I wrote about the Duxford Airshows ahead of the events this year and after we tried one out for ourselves I posted to my Instagram page but I realised I didn’t ever put anything post visit on the blog and we had such a great time I wanted to show you! Check out my Insta reel here: It was such a great day out which we all enjoyed and we went en masse from age 1 to […]
Wroxham Barns Pumpkin Festival 2022! If you’ve not been to Wroxham Barns over Halloween half term then you don’t know what you’re missing! It’s a fantastic school holiday day out with all the fun of the farm and fairground rides (which are always included in the price of your ticket – all incl, that’s what we like) but with added extras just for the season and this year is set to be bigger and better than ever before with their […]
Roarr! For The Holidays! It was Raffie’s 5th birthday over the weekend and for another year running he wanted to go to Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure to celebrate. I think it really is his most favourite place in the world and it doesn’t matter how many times we go, he always wants to see the Dippy Show, in the theatre, over anything else. This visit he also got to go and meet and greet with Dippy which was the icing on […]
Norwich Castle Museum 2022! Yep, here I am talking about Norfolk Museums again because frankly, they’re so good they deserve another spot on the blog! Norfolk Museums are ten across the county and with a Norfolk Museum’s Pass (which we have) you can visit unlimited times to all of them for 12 months at the wonderfully inclusive price of £101.70 for a family consisting of two adults and as many children as you have. Yes, you heard that right, as […]
Roarr – Summer 2022! This week we were very kindly invited as guests of the park to visit our fave Roarr! Goodness me we love it there, for so many reasons, but one of the best is that there’s something for everyone. Dippy and his friends are Raffie’s favourite. Hands down. He loves to see the show and roar his way through it with them and it doesn’t matter how many times we go, this is still his best bit […]
Football Golf At Amazona Zoo Cromer! We are long fans of the zoo in Cromer known as Amazona! I have been an annual member for a good few years now and absolutely recommend visiting as it’s an affordable attraction which may be small, but is perfectly formed. I won’t lie, it’s not an all singing and all dancing day out and it won’t take you long to exhaust what’s on offer in the zoo. If you’re looking for a whole […]
Nozstock Festival 2022! We’ve just got back from Nozstock 2022, The Hidden Valley family festival run by a family in the rolling countryside of Herefordshire. Not only does this backyard family party grown bigger have a beautiful vibe but it has the most stunning vista to compliment the entertainment! Happy faces surged around the festival site and we owned 6 of them, 10 if you include our family camping buddies the Cookie Crumbles gang! We’d been to Noz before, back […]
