I was recently lucky enough to stay overnight in the utterly gorgeous Lyme Regis as part of a press trip with Visit Lyme Regis, having only ever visited for a few hours before. Here are my top tips! Where to Stay: Coombe Cottage, Jurassic Properties* When travelling with the kids we love the flexibility of…

Explores: Jurassic Encounter 2022, Bristol
What can possibly enhance the beautiful colours of autumn at the Ashton Court estate on the edge of Bristol? Why a huge array of moving, roaring dinosaurs of course! 🦖 On until the 30th of October (next Sunday – you don’t have long!) the dinos vary in size and species so you’ll hopefully spot your…
Eats & Explores: The Bower House, Shipston-on-Stour
We’re in June, which you may know (if you read the nonsense I write here or follow me on Instagram, hi if you do! 👋), means that The Bean, aka the tiny human I’m currently growing, is officially due NEXT MONTH. (😱😬😅) How did that happen!? Anyway because I don’t like to do things in…
Explores: Matilda the Musical, Bristol Hippodrome
If you read my last theatre review (Kinky Boots @ Bristol Hippodrome) then you’ll know I do love a bit of musical theatre. But when invited to a special event to celebrate the arrival of Matilda The Musical at the Bristol Hippodrome, I was especially excited! Seeing the film with my mum at the (original) Odeon…
Explores: Portmeirion, Gwynedd

Eats & Explores: 3 Nights in Athens, Greece
Bestie @jen.on.tour and I recently enjoyed a mini break to the Greek Capital, Athens. We had a brilliant trip and it was super convenient (and cheap) to visit from Bristol, so here are some of my (our!) recommendations… Transport Flights from Bristol are very reasonable, depending on the time of year. We booked in October…
Eats & Explores: A Night in Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire
Accomodation: The Cawdor Hotel Where: Rhosmaen St, Llandeilo SA19 6EN The Cawdor came onto my radar a few years ago when my mum stayed there – she raved about a free upgrade to a four poster bed and the exceptional food. So when I spotted a special offer on their Facebook page just before Christmas,…
Eats: Porthmeor Cafe, St Ives
Anyone that knows me or reads any of the nonsense I put on Facebook and Insta will know that I love St Ives! As in REALLY love it. Since meeting Chris in 2014 and being introduced to this little seaside town (claimed as the sunniest place in the UK), we’ve been at least once a…
Eats & Explores: Venice doesn’t have to be pricey!
Confession time. I love Venice! Many people don’t. People will often say it’s smelly, there are too many tourists, it’s too expensive, or perhaps all three. I disagree! The smelly thing – I’ve now been twice when it’s very hot (July and an unseasonably warm September) and another time in the rain (also September) and…
