Feather Down Farm Days – Our Top Ten Tips

Okay, the actual review of our Feather Down Farm experience is here, but this is our top ten tips to a successul Feather Down Farms holiday: 1 – LIGHT THE FIRE FIRST. Be generous with kindling and firelighters, and do not turn your back, it will take offense. 2 – Take a thermos flask – your fire will be burning merrily at bedtime – boil a kettle, fill the flask, and you can have hot tea when you wake whilst you wait for...

Feather Down Farm Days review

Feather Down Farm Days are spearheading the new ‘glamping’ movement, putting the fun and glamour back into camping – even the likes of Cath Kidston is taking to canvas for a taste of the Great Outdoors these days.

Center Parcs Review – Family Friendly, but not budget friendly.

Well now. Centre Parcs. This is actually a very tricky review to write, so bear with me – it may be a long one. We visited Center Parcs Longleat for a long weekend, and we didn’t actually have the best of times. But we certainly didn’t have a bad time either.

Stellina Baby 100% Cashmere Ballet Wrap

What a tricky one review for Pink this was. Small, utterly soft, perfectly formed, lusciously coloured, go-with-anything ballet wrap. How does she manage? ;) Oooo-kay. Stellina Baby’s 100% cashmere ballet wrap. How to review? What do I say to convey it in words for you? How about “GOOoooOOORGEOUS”? That probably just about covers it. ‘Course you could go with beautiful, lovely, special, stunning, surprisingly...

Three Bags Full Merino Childrenswear Review…

Bear has been reviewing Three Bags Full Merino Childrenswear range. If you haven’t tried merino wool yet for the children, its really time to start thinking about it. I have to say that this top from Three Bags Full has become an absolute staple of Bear’s wardrobe, and I’d be lost without it. Long sleeved and warm enough for the cool of the morning school run. Yet it doesn’t get too hot if you’re caught...
