A hugely popular seaside town in the North of England is Whitley Bay. Home to all you would expect from a UK staycation with all the family friendly features you could hope for. Whitley Bay Beach is one of our favourites in the area. Here’s all you need to know before your visit. This post
Seaham, UK is located along the Durham heritage coastline and is the perfect place for a family holiday in the North East. It’s a lovely seaside town offering a wealth of kid friendly activities and some great opportunities to jump in waves and build some sandcastles. Here are some Seaham beaches you need to visit
Isn’t it wonderful when things just turn out right? Last week Mr AWTYK had to visit Blyth, UK in the North East for work so being half term we thought we’d tag a long. A visit to the seaside was exactly what we needed. Although I had never considered a visit to Blyth before, it
My very favourite place to visit with my daughter is Asia. If I don’t take a trip to South East Asia at least once a year, I start to go a little crazy. It’s not just the weather, although you can definitely find somewhere warm at any time in the year. But also the food,
The ancient city of Bergerac in France is located in the Périgord Dordogne region. Home to beautiful historic buildings and nestled on the Dordogne River it makes an ideal base for exploring the area. You’ll probably recognise the name from satirist Cyrano de Bergerac (the one with the rather large nose). But the town really
Sometimes a girlie getaway is exactly what you need. Even more so after this year of homeschooling. So a few days escaping the normal in Bristol was just what we needed. My 10 year old daughter is obsessed with hotel stays, she loves the pools, the rooms, the breakfasts! So we opted for the Aztec
Hop onboard the SS Great Britain in Bristol. A fascinating day out for the whole family. We recently visited this Bristol attraction and learned heaps about the history of the city. You’ll soon see why they called it the Ship that changed the World! Have a look at this post for some other great things
This year is going to be all about UK staycations for us. We’ll hopefully be getting out to the coast and exploring some of the beautiful British countryside. I’ll also be throwing some city breaks in the mix and hope to convince you to visit some of the lesser know destinations in the Country. Bristol
One thing we’ve really missed this year is catching a wave. Being located in the middle of the country, far away from the coastline has made it almost impossible to get to the sea. I was over the moon to discover an inland surfing lake in Somerset. Here’s what you need to know about visiting
What do you buy the man who has everything? It’s a question I’ve asked a lot over the past month. And one I think I’ve finally managed to answer. My husband is one of those annoying people who never seems to want for anything. He’s either already bought it or doesn’t really want it. And
So much to do and so little time (especially once the kids have started school!) but having children doesn’t mean you have to put off travelling the world; taking them along with you can be an amazing experience for the whole family. Whatever your dream destination, have a look at what we consider to be
A family trip to Las Vegas can be a true bucket list vacation. To make the most of your visit you need to choose the right place to stay. A combination of value, family friendly activities and a great location are what you’re after. If you’re planning where to stay on the strip, these are
I’m not sure if it’s the fact that she’s an only child or that it’s just her nature to want to be involved in everything. But something Piper always mentions is that she wishes she was at our wedding. When we decided to head to Las Vegas for a quick break I just knew I
Koh Samui is a stunning Island off the East Coast of Thailand. The terrain is hilly, covered in jungle with some of the most beautiful beaches in the whole of South East Asia. The coastal parts of the Island provide some amazing spaces to view the whole of the jungle and out towards the pristine
I’ll admit, exploring Old Town Las Vegas with kids was not top of my Vegas itinerary. Old Town and Fremont Street has a reputation for sleaziness. For stag dos and hedonism and yes, that side does exist but it is possible to avoid if you fancy a visit with kids. In fact the area has
