Pink Prosecco
Girls this is for you, pure indulgence, light scented candles and soak in the bath, with soft music playing sipping the prosecco, pathway to heaven, although make sure it is chilled before you start, or you could chose to share it on a sunny evening sat in the garden but I warn you a bottle …

King Prawns With Ginger, Lime & Honey
This is such a good dish, if you do not like prawn you can replace them with finely chopped chicken, it works either way and this is really for all lovers of fresh ginger. This recipe serves 4 and is very quick takes about 15-20 mins We found a chilled Italian white wine goes really …

Farewell To Marmite
Not a good week this week, we had to have our little farm cat put to sleep, he was such a sweetie and a great friend to the children. Paige called Marmite her kitty, as he would sit on her knee just purring away, we have shared 17 years with him and he has left …

Mermaid Quay – Cardiff Bay
I loved the idea of being city based, yet being able to walk from my hotel 15 minutes alongside pretty water ways to reach a vibrant modern bay area with handsome yachts tied up at the quayside. Striking Millennium building, which seems to change colour with each hour that passes to a spectrum of golds …

Review: Cardiff
For a weekend break I would highly recommend Cardiff. The city is modern and with the huge amounts of money put into the regeneration of the city really shows. Although you still get a mixture of the old history coming through especially as the beautiful castle sits right in the center. Shopping is some of …

Pembrokeshire Weekend
I am now settling down after a hectic exciting weekend away. It was just what we both needed! The combination of a city weekend and then a relaxed beach type weekend worked wonderfully. Our weekend in Pembrokeshire highlighted everything I had been told about that area. Spectacular beaches, clean blue waters, the sea was warm …

Wizards Thatch
Please check this out if you want something really different a friend said it was like going to Bilbo Baggins house, but with all mod cons. It is not super modern, it is super romantic, the Camelot suite has a seven foot four poster bed so you really could spend all day in that, each …

Review Pentewan Sands
2 Years since we have been to Pentewan Sands near Mevagissey, we went to Hayle last year. We decided to go back to Pentewan mainly because the beach access is wonderful for Paige in her wheelchair, we can drive her chair down the area they use for boats and she is straight on the beach, …

Wonderful Week In Cornwall
Just got back from Mevagissey after a great week with four of the grandchildren in a caravan at Pentewen Sands. We have been so lucky with the weather, we had 3 great days on the beach, then it turned a little cloudy but nothing compared to the weather we had last year which was awful. …
