I get asked questions about my Dubai trips on an almost daily basis so I thought it was about time I committed all of this to the blog, to make it super simple to refer back to. We’ve been to Dubai five times now. The hotels – any hotel our there, I believe – are...
I’ve been holidaying in Mallorca since I was 3. My parents bought a flat with my dad’s sister over 30 years ago and to this day I’ve gone at least once a year. It’s my happy place. Nothing beats that feeling when we get off the plane, get in a...
Hello, nice to meet you. I’m Little Miss Play It Safe. I’ve never been much of a risk taker (the biggest risk I ever took was quitting my job to go freelance) or a rule breaker (once got caught with my phone out in GCSE Chemistry and was sent to the...
A while ago Club Med approached us and asked if we would like to go skiing with our families. Our initial thoughts? Our husbands (both die hard skiers) would LOVE it, the logistics with the kids would be a nightmare, oh and and Sam has never skied (Gemma last skied 20...
I had never been to Amsterdam before. People seem shocked when I say that, I’m still not entirely sure why. But when Nick and I were looking for a November mini-break with some friends of ours that was a 45 minute flight from Heathrow, had no time difference and lots...
Bedruthan was the second stop on our Cornish road trip and I was so excited to visit. It had been 25 years since I was last there. It’s crazy to think that a privately owned family hotel has stood such a test of time. When we arrived, I have to be honest, Nick and I...
October half term is a new thing for us, so we decided to grasp the freedom of having Leo out of school for a week and head to the Cornish coast for an adventure. For those thinking that it’s a bit of a mission to get to Cornwall from London (or further afield), it’s...
Just under two hours outside of London lies a little slice of coastal heaven that was the perfect retreat to recover from wisdom tooth surgery whilst keeping my two boys entertained. Comprised of a dozen different sized wooden cabins nestled amongst the wildflowers on...
Travelling to the Maldives with kids is not as crazy at it sounds, promise. To begin with, I have to say that timing was everything. Leo starts school in September and Alfie isn’t two yet. This meant that it was the last holiday we could plan where we didn’t...
We live for holidays. If I had to choose one thing to spend my hard earned money on it would be holidays (after food/water/pink Nike trainers….) So back in March we spent a blissful (blissful ish, there were a couple of trantrums) 8 days at Club Med in La...
Is there anything more annoying than being proven wrong? Every time I spoke to someone about where to book to go on holiday, it felt like they mentioned Sani and how fabulous it was. I’m that person that never read a Harry Potter book because I didn’t want...
When we booked this holiday, I thought maybe we were mad. Twelve hours on a plane with them both?! But then I figured that as of next summer, we’d be stuck in the school holiday cycle forever more(with holidays at 3x the price) so we may as well take the chance to go...
Back in September we decided we needed as escape and to have one last holiday before the summer was officially over. We have never done the ‘kiddy resort’ holiday and so thought it was worth giving it a whirl to see if it really was as easy a holiday as...
It’s safe to say we go away A LOT with our families. We both have done so since our eldest were babies. Belle came on her first holiday at 10 weeks old and I think it’s made it so much easier for us that we did it with her from so young, rather than...
Micro breaks are for people like us. People who don’t have time to go on a mini break, or who don’t want to (or can’t) leave their kids for longer. To celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary, Nick and I booked a last minute micro-break to Paris. The...

Denim we've been wearing this week, Sam's salad that garners soooo many DMs (ask @rochellehumes for the recipe, it's all hers!) a pretty fancy hot chocolate, rain hats, Gemma's fave pre loved bag & too many hours on laptops & phones editing newsletters & content. Happy Friday ladies, we successfully made it to the end of another week 🙏🏻✨
