Keycamp – Parc De Fierbois Review

So third in the Keycamp series is the second parc we stayed at – the Parc de Fierbois in the beautiful Loire region just south of Tours (close enough to explore the Touraine region too). After our encounter with Paris International, I’ll admit we headed south with some trepidation and not overly blessed with good humour…But as we drove the through the pretty little village of St Catherine de Fierbois we began to...

Larmer Tree Festival – Day 2

After her grown-ups night at the festival watching Jools Holland and Newton Faulkner, Emma revisited last night with her son in preparation for spending the whole weekend ‘Festival-ing’… I took D for a couple of hours last night and it’s filled him with excitement to be spending a WHOLE weekend there.

Keycamp asked very sweetly for us to review a family holiday with them… and not being prone to turning down the...

When LittleStuff Went To France…

Well, half of it has, anyway! Whilst Katy held down the fort, I swanned off to France for a couple of weeks with the family, thanks to the lovely people at Keycamp. We had a fabulous holiday (with a slight hiccup at the start) – but we had a lot of other companies wanting to join in with their own useful products for family holidays. We had offers for everything from Satnav to Suncream – so I agreed to review anything I...
