In the early year’s of our relationship Hubby and I decided that it might be fun to go camping together as a tester for taking Curly away on holiday. In our lack of wisdom we bought a “Brand New 9 man tent” from eBay for only £100!!! We really should have seen the warning signs … Read more
Now that we have managed to convert the Beans to our love of camping we plan on going even more this Summer, even if you can just get away for a night or two it can feel like you have been away for a week. Time goes slowly when you’re camping and if you’re lucky … Read more
We have been regular customers of Mountain Warehouse for years since we love being outdoors. We are lucky enough to have three stores very close to us. They always have a large choice in clothing, camping gear, cycling and other outdoor equipment and they don’t leave a gaping hole in your wallet. Just before Christmas … Read more
I can’t believe I am STILL playing catch up with our Summer holidays posts but I am! The last few weeks feel like they have passed by at 100mph but I am determined to get them done. So by now you might have seen my posts for Wroxham Barns and Pensthorpe where we visited on … Read more

The best weather for camping is most definitely lots of sunshine and we were lucky enough to get plenty of sunshine last week. I was keen to get the Beans out and about in the fresh air. I had taken lots of outdoor toys to keep them amused whilst on the site and since Jelly … Read more
I was very pleasantly surprised when the Beans didn’t wake until 7.30am, at home their usual wake up time is pre-6.00am. Obviously all that fresh air had had the desired effect. The facilities on the campsite were good but were a little trek from our choice of pitch on the top field. In hindsight we … Read more
