How To Camp Better With A Large Family! While we are by no means the experts in the field of camping, I don’t think you have to be to enjoy this absolutely terrific style of family holiday. Is it hard work? Well, yes, in all honesty it is. It’s hard work before you leave, from the planning and packing (playing Jenga in the car more like) and it’s hard work when you’re there (with children at any rate – keeping […]
Suffolk Yurt Holidays Again! After the most glorious weekend at the Suffolk Yurt Holidays site last year, we booked again right away to return. I couldn’t get my birthday weekend for 2023 but as luck would have it my Mother In Law’s 70th fell on a weekend when they did have full site availability so we snapped that up and booked in advance for 2024 as well! And we’ve just got back from that second stay to celebrate my Mother […]
Coleman Tents 8 Position Recliner Chair! As you will know by now, we love to camp! Camping, for us, is a way of having a break away with the family, on a budget, without scrimping too much on comfort. I mean, it might not sound like the most comfortable thing in the world, sleeping beneath the stars, but it’s all down to the investments made when choosing your kit which makes the difference. Creating a home away from home by […]
Campingaz Kitchen 2CV! Every year we get better and better at the camping malarkey which we love, but are probably still rather novice at. Every year I have a list of new things I must add to our kit (the camping washing line always seems to be on it and ALWAYS seems to get forgotten) and one of those things has been a double camping stove. We have the Campigaz Party grill which is extensive and great for cooking everything […]
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 […]
Nozstock 2022 – No Better Family Festival! Yes! After a 2 year COVID hiatus the best family festival we ever went to is back with aplomb and we cannot wait (only I can wait because that means the end of term and I’m not ready to have Raffie to not be a pre-schooler anymore)! It’s going to be worth the wait for the festival and a massive softener to my baby boy being grown up enough to be graduating from […]
The Fine Bedding Company Night Owl Double Sleeping Bag! We’ve had our Night Owl 10.5 tog King sized duvet for a while now and it’s become such a handy spare duvet that we plan on buying them for all the beds in the house – you can even get junior sets which is perfect for the littlest in our family. The really innovative thing about the Night Owl duvets is that they don’t need a cover. At all. So you […]
