Paradise Wildlife Park Review

We did this review of Paradise Wildlife Park in Hertfordshire as an end of Easter holidays treat with extended family. As always though, I wanted to keep it as cheap as possible and so we used the kids’ Blue Peter badges so they could get in for free! Which is my favourite price!! The dinosaurs […]

The Little Trip Boat Aylesbury Review

According to Ratty “there is nothing – absolutely nothing – half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats”. Well, today we took Smallest Child on what I think is possibly her first boat trip, and the first one in ages for the boys. We were very kindly invited to review The Little […]

Aladdin at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre Review

The pantomime at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre this year is Aladdin and we’ve been to review it during opening week to see what it’s like. This is actually the first time I’ve been to a panto at the Waterside Theatre, although we’ve been to see loads of other things there. Aylesbury favourites La Voix and Andy […]

Ashridge House Illuminated Christmas Light Trail Review

Of all the Christmas light trail reviews I’ve done this year Ashridge House Illuminated is the review that I was most nervous about. I hadn’t heard great things about the Halloween trail last year, and the Christmas one hadn’t gone down much better. I have no problem saying when a somewhere is rubbish, even if […]

Tumblestone Hollow Review

Tumblestone Hollow is the incredible adventure playground at Stonor Park in Oxfordshire, and you can read the review of that here. It used to be called Wonder Woods but it had a serious upgrade and now it’s amazing. Most of the family friendly activities that they have at Stonor Park tend to involve Tumblestone Hollow […]

Frozen the Musical Review

If you’re a fan of the movie you might be wondering if it’s worth seeing the West End show? How true is the musical to the Frozen movie? Smallest Child is a big Frozen fan (TBF so am I) and my Sister-in-law decided to take us all to London for a birthday treat! This review […]

Odds Farm Park Review

We visited Odds Farm Park as a birthday treat for Smallest Child, but of course I had to review it whilst we were there! I’ve driven past this place dozens of times when visiting Cliveden, but I was never sure if it was good value for money or not. In my mind it was always […]

Hogwarts in the Snow Review

What’s the best time of year to do the Harry Potter Studio tour; Halloween or Christmas? Is Hogwarts in the Snow any different from the normal tour? Is it worth going specifically for Hogwarts in the Snow if you’ve already been? Honestly these were all questions I asked myself before booking our tickets! Let’s face […]

Silverstone Interactive Museum Review

I was brought up on weekends watching the Grand Prix. My Mum even knows Frank Williams (very cool). We like museums, we particularly like interactive museums and we’ve been to motor museums before and really enjoyed it. So when we were asked if we wanted to review Silverstone Interactive Museum in Northamptonshire we were really […]

High Wycombe Escape Rooms Review

The High Wycombe Escape Rooms are not where you expect them to be! Most escape rooms we have been to are on industrial estates etc, they’ve certainly been in dedicated buildings. This one is in The Works ice cream parlour! We were invited to review the previous escape rooms at The Works in High Wycombe […]
