Kids Eat Free at Coral Island, Blackpool plus win a Mini Cooper


#GIFTED

This summer we are going on a little staycation. After visiting family in Leeds we will be holidaying for a few days at Blackpool. The kids are very excited about going to Blackpool and have been looking at the Visit Blackpool website for ideas of attractions they want to.

As the boys love pirates especially H as he has just been learning all about pirates and the sea at school, once they saw the iconic pirate themed logo of Coral Island they declared we HAVE to visit there when holidaying in Blackpool.

The kids have already had a GOOD old look at the Coral Island website to see what attractions and amusements they can enjoy when we visit. H is very excited that they have a number or ride on kids rides and loves the look of the pirate ships and Circus ride. T is hyped up about the fact that Coral Island boasts Virtual Reality arcade rides, which in his opinion is “super awesome”. They also both want to go on the Ghost Train and Pirate Flyer whilst I can't wait to give the Camel Derby a try.

Snow Season Shopping with Simply Hike


Even though I bet as soon as the kids go back to school this September that we have a mini heatwave as we only have a handful of days left of the summer holidays and our family holiday enjoying the beach in the sun seems a lifetime ago my thoughts have turned to winter adventures.

I adore the snow just as much as I love the sun. Holidays in snowy climates are just as amazing as beach holidays. Over the years I have had incredible experiences on the slopes and love the feeling of skiing in stunning surroundings with the sun glistening on the crisp white snow.
