Caldecotte Lake Review

We have driven past Caldecotte Lake in Milton Keynes a million times, usually on the way to doing a review of somewhere else! And we always say we should go for a walk around it, we’ve even driven half way there and had to turn back because of car trouble! Well, finally we got there! […]

Volcano Falls Milton Keynes Review

This review of Volcano Falls Milton Keynes came about because Smallest Child wanted to play crazy golf and this place was by far the most recommended by you guys! We’d been to another place in MK previously and didn’t like it so we were in the market for something better! The Set-up They have three […]

Longwick Village Hall Playground and Skate Park Review

I only found the playground at Longwick Village Hall by accident, and even then it was only because of the skate park. I’d spotted a neighbouring playground on google maps when I was looking for things to do one day, and then saw the skate park next to it. That made it pretty much a […]

Hodgemoor Woods Review

Hodgemoor Woods near Amersham, Buckinghamshire is one of those places that I get in the car afterwards and wonder how I’ve never been to visit & review before! How did I miss it? In fact, despite driving past this place approximately 1,000,000 times before and seeing the picnic sign I wouldn’t have visited today if […]

Denham Country Park Review

This review of Denham Country Park, whilst a day out in itself, is actually part of a much bigger review. That’s because Denham Country Park is just a small part of Colne Valley Regional Park which is HUGE. It stretches from Rickmansworth to Staines and covers several different counties. Once you’ve read this review of […]

Brill Recreation Ground Review

The playground at Brill Recreation Ground in Buckinghamshire recently had an upgrade but it’s taken us a while to get down there and check it out. It was worth the wait though. The playground has been designed with a windmill theme to match the windmill that dominates so much of the village. If you want […]

Land of Lights Milton Keynes Review

Last year my feed had review after review of Land of Lights at Gulliver’s Land Milton Keynes and it looked amazing. We already had stuff planned but it was top of my list of places to visit this year instead. Land of Lights South is actually in the Gulliver’s dino and farm park part of […]

Father Christmas at Hogshaw Farm Review

We are big fans of Hogshaw Farm in Buckinghamshire, and have been visiting since it opened so when we were invited to review their Father Christmas experience we jumped at the chance. As with all of my reviews, they didn’t see the contents prior to publication and had no input into it. Just to give […]

Eskdale Road, Stoke Mandeville Playground Review

This review of the playground on Eskdale Road in Stoke Mandeville, Buckinghamshire has been updated since the whole park had a recent refurbishment. The playground itself is set within a large recreation ground and there’s a good variety of things to do for both younger and older children. It’s a fully enclosed playground with seating […]

Claydon House Review

Since my first review of Claydon House in Buckinghamshire the National Trust (or possibly the family that own Claydon) have completely changed how everything works on-site! There used to be a separate charge for the house and the gardens, even for NT members. Now it’s all one price. One thing that Claydon House is famous […]
