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 […]
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 […]
Fairground Frights At Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach For Halloween Half Term! Last week I wrote about how much we were looking forward to Fairground Frights at Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach, our second visit after we had an absolutely fantastic time last year being scare witless by both the rides AND the actors! This year we had another great evening with the big kids and went on ALL the rides while dodging the ghosts, scary clowns, ghouls, mummies and the rest! […]
Wicked Wildlife At Pensthorpe For October Half Term 2021! When aren’t I banging on about how brilliant Pensthorpe Natural Park is? I know, we love it! We love the fact it caters for all ages (baby to Gram), we adore the park (inside and out), can’t get enough of the walk ways (with their activities along the way), miss visiting the red squirrels and flamingoes if we haven’t been for a while and when they do pond dipping or we […]
Out There Arts Presents Fire On The Water Great Yarmouth! Last week I was invited to the press launch of the brand new event Fire on the Water presented by Out There Arts, a magical, blazing display of fire installations and sculptures housed at the Venetian Waterway in Great Yarmouth. Last minute I couldn’t attend but I didn’t want to miss out so we went as a family group last night instead, and we were all mesmerised by the beauty! […]
Wroxham Barns Pumpkin Festival 2021! Wroxham Barns is a bit of a favourite in this house, even with the bigger kids (who claim to be going on rides for their younger siblings but love it just as much themselves) and since they introduced their all inclusive package a while back, whereby everything on offer is covered by your ticket price, it’s become even more popular. Not just for us but all parents we know who love to go because eliminating […]
