Hotel Baia Lara Antalya – Beach Cabana

Our first ever trip to Turkey was going to be the ultimate in rest and relaxation. We spent a lot of time researching the perfect 5* all inclusive holiday resort and with the help of Thomson Holidays, opted to stay in the chic Hotel Baia Lara in the Antalya region of Turkey.

And we weren’t disappointed! We enjoyed a 10 night stay in mid September this year. We chose this time as it would still be hot (was 28-35 degrees during our stay), but there’d be less kids and families on holiday (sorry, but we wanted a romantic trip away). This hotel was also recommended by Thomson for being a good couples resort with adults-only areas. Winner!Continue reading

Bowness-on-Windermere – A Winter Weekend

I have just got back from the most splendid, relaxing Winter weekend away in Bowness-on-Windermere. Mummy and I enjoyed a much deserved weekend away by The Lakes, staying in the wonderful Macdonald Old England Hotel and Spa, Windermere.

I’d driven through Windermere before in the past, but not stopped, so didn’t realise that we were just moments away from the most stunning quintessentially English little town on the lake – Bowness. We wanted somewhere with a stunning view of the lake, but also within walking distance to some shops and restaurants. This is exactly what we got with Bowness.Continue reading

Hello from our Beach Cabana

Just a quick note from our holiday in Turkey to say I’m thinking lots about this blog, what I want it to be and how I want it to grow.  I’ve been blogging for about 18 months now “properly” and have loved every minute of it (I just wish I had more time to spend on it!).

I think I’ve still got so much to talk about, lots to tell you about me and of course, lots of food to eat and restaurants to review!

So, as I’m sitting in our private beach Cabana, I’m feeling inspired, relaxed and incredibly grateful.

If you have anything that you’d like to see more of on this blog, or things you’d like to see that you haven’t yet, or comments in general, let me know! After all, I want you to keep reading 🙂
