When I was a little girl, somewhere around seven years old (at a guess), my Mum and I went on holiday to the Isle of Wight, just the two of us, and had the best time exploring together. I’ve been wanting to go back and re-visit the island for years and years, particularly now that…
¡Hola! Here is part two of our travel diary from our Spanish summer holiday in August 2022 – a family trip to Nerja on the Costa del Sol. I’ve loved spending time in Spain since I was a little girl as I have family who lived there and I couldn’t wait to show it off…
We have been lucky enough to be able to do a fair bit of travelling this year, both individually and as a family. Neil went to Barbados with a friend to watch cricket for 11 days in March; I went to Chicago for a 3-day photography conference in July; and we spent our annual week…
Back at the start of July 2022 I spent four days in Chicago for ClickAway, a photography conference run by Click Community. It was my second time attending – my first was ClickAway Atlanta back in March 2020, right before the world shut down (quite literally – I landed back home in the UK just two days before all…

In April 2022 we headed down to our happy place by the sea for our annual Easter visit to Bude in North Cornwall. You can read all about what we got up to in the first half of the week here. This post covers our adventures during the second half of the week, when we…
I love sitting down to write these posts about our annual Easter visit to Bude and when I do I often wonder what I’m going to say. After all, we go every year – what can I possibly talk about this time that’s new and interesting or different? And then I look back over all…
Back in June 2021, after spending the first part of Whitsun half term in Edinburgh, we were invited to spend a few days at Cameron Lodges on the shores of Loch Lomond in western Scotland. We were really impressed with our whole experience there: everything from the 5* luxury accommodation; to the superb resort facilities;…
We usually head south to our happy place in Cornwall for our family holidays. At the start of June we headed north instead, on a week-long mini Scottish road trip of two halves: first to explore the beautiful city of Edinburgh for four days; then on to Loch Lomond for the final three days. It…
I have wanted to visit Scotland for years so I was ridiculously excited when we were lucky enough to be invited to spend three nights at Cameron Lodges on the shores of Loch Lomond at the beginning of June. Our accommodation, activities and an evening meal were all complimentary for the purposes of this review…
