Explore Norfolk With A “Good Journey”! I saw last week Norfolk has just become the first Good Journey County promoting car-free days out for residents and visitors to Norfolk. This reminded me of when I was growing up in Norfolk we didn’t have a car because my Mum didn’t drive. Though this wasn’t always the most convenient of things, it really didn’t hamper us as much as you might think. I fully believe that these days we’ve become so used […]
Pettitts Animal Adventure Park – Norfolk! I remember visiting (and enjoying) Pettitts Animal Adventure Park as a child myself and then absolutely year’s ago taking Florence with a new born Jimmy for their first and only trip there. I’m not sure why we never went back but for whatever reason it simply wasn’t on my radar and whenever people have mentioned it the idea hasn’t stuck. Until now… Friends were going this week and Posie and I joined them in […]
Pensthorpe For Easter 2023! Having been regular visitors of Pensthorpe ever since we had children we’ve seen many changes at the park. It has always been a wonderful day out for families, but over the years there has been tremendous focus on making it more welcoming and inviting as well as inclusive for all. Not only have the play areas, both inside and out become a real hub, a massive talking point about their brilliance, but activities on offer such […]
Wroxham Barns For Easter 2023! Look, I honestly cannot fault Wroxham Barns and yet each season, each holiday, year after year, they get better and better! As a family run business they are in a position to really listen to customers and action points immediately, and boy do they! At the forefront of Wroxham Barns’ ethos is family, from the unit within who own and run the farm and park, to the way they consider their customers and these days […]
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 – 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 […]
Roarr! Valley Of The Dinosaurs! Obviously we are massive fans of Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure based here in Norfolk. I’ve written many times about our visits to the park where we enjoy all that’s on offer on site, all of which comes as part and parcel of the entry price and now, though we can never get around all they have in just one day as it stood, there’s another new attraction joining the line up! As well as the high […]
Wroxham Barns For February Half Term 2022 – Lambing Live! Lambing Live is happening right now at Wroxham Barns for February Half Term and after our (very cold so wrap up warm) visit this week we are yet again singing the praises of how they run this fabulous resource for children! It’s not just a jolly on the farm with play equipment (indoor and out), a fun park (with all inclusive rides) and for this school holiday a maternity wing […]
Pensthorpe Christmas 2021! What’s on at Pensthorpe Natural Park this festive month? Absolutely tons but it’s no surprise that their Christmas offerings have been VERY popular and are mostly sold out. You can absolutely still soak up the festive lights and ambiance however and a visit, as always, comes highly recommended from me! Pensthorpe really is the most beautiful day out and with a crisp walk around the lake before some major fun on the extensive playground before a warm […]
October 2021 At Roarr! October at Roarr Dinosaur Adventure is looking hot to trot geared up for Halloween fun, October Half Term and even for their fright nights with Primevil which are running through to the very last day of this spooky month! We are long term fans of the park for many reasons but most notably that there really is something for everyone in our family there and when you have kids ranging in age from 0-11 that’s quite […]
