I’m very proud to be a Yorkshire lass and love to share all the great things there are to see in my home county of North Yorkshire. As 2021 is set to be a popular year holidaying at home, I have teamed up with Inntravel and rounded up 5 of the best North Yorkshire Staycations. From spa breaks in Harrogate to… View Post
We recently stayed at Lower Campscott Farm, which offers unique child friendly accommodation in Devon, near Woolacombe and Ilfracombe. The farm has eight 4* self catering cottages, each one different from the next. The whole place is geared towards families with young children, allowing them to experience a real ‘farm holiday’, whilst being by the sea. I actually stumbled across… View Post
Last month we bravely loaded up the car and set off on the 6 hour drive from Leeds to North Devon, with our 22 month toddler in tow. This holiday was our Plan B after our flights to Spain were cancelled due to Covid. I was really happy with the Plan B we had come up with and was looking… View Post
As many of you will know, prematurity is now a topic very close to my heart after my own son Theo was born prematurely at 25 weeks. As well as posting about travel and motherhood, I also try to raise awareness about prematurity whenever I can (particularly on my Instagram). But today I am glad to raise awareness on my… View Post
I was surprised and a little bit saddened to learn that 20% of people are still not wearing face coverings when travelling on UK trains. Why? I have travelled by train four times since the travel restrictions were lifted, and every time I have worn a mask without hesitation. So I’ve teamed up with Northern to help encourage people to… View Post
Last week we ventured out to The Ivy Leeds; our second restaurant dining experience since lockdown measures have been eased in the UK. Although we’ve eaten at The Ivy Leeds before, I knew there would be some slight changes due to the additional safety measures to make it Covid secure. We felt very safe and relaxed during the experience, so… View Post
Last weekend we had our first night away from home since the UK lockdown began. We went to Cleethorpes for the weekend and had an overnight stay at Theo’s Nannies house. It felt so nice to pack our bags and get away. It was also the perfect opportunity to try out our new Sleep & Go Lite travel cot by… View Post
I have had many a conversation with fellow mums of premature babies and it seems to be a common theme that we’ve all been on the receiving end of some quite hurtful comments. These comments aren’t meant to be hurtful, but they still hurt. They could easily be said by a friend or family member who has the best intentions,… View Post
After months of lockdown and life being on hold, the UK is slowly (and cautiously) beginning to open for business again. From restaurants and shops to hairdressers and hotels, suddenly there are new ways to spend our time and money (whilst staying safe and practicing social distancing). Lockdown has been an eye-opening opportunity to figure out the elements of our… View Post
Since the UK lockdown restrictions changed to allow travel to outdoor open space (irrespective of distance), we’ve been out on a series of ‘mini adventures’. Whilst I’ve got seriously itchy feet to travel overseas, these mini adventures have allowed us to see and do new things locally. They’ve allowed us to create some precious memories during a difficult time, such… View Post
