Hill Close Gardens

Posted on 07/03/202207/03/2022

Hill Close Gardens are the hidden hedged gardens of Warwick. You can see the rare survival of Victorian gardens that were once used by townsfolk living above their business, to escape from the crowded town. After a risk of being demolished they have now been lovingly restored by local volunteers and are now nationally recognised….

Hawkstone Park Follies

Posted on 27/10/202006/03/2022

Being outdoors is our favourite. We love exploring new and exciting places that we haven’t been to before (or in my case, haven’t been to for many years, as I did head along when I was about ten with my family when it first opened). Set in 100 acres of Parkland The Follies is a…

Essington Farm

Posted on 06/09/202006/03/2022

One of our favourite PYO farms is Essington Fruit Farm. I’ve been coming here since I was a little girl. I would visit with my Grandma Hines who owned The Duke of Cambridge (a real ale) pub in Willenhall. We would come strawberry picking and my Grandma would find a section she liked and would…

Becketts Farm Sunflower Field

If you have been following me for a while, you will know I absolutely love a flower field. Today we headed to Becketts Farm Sunflower Field. It is large and completely FREE to enter and look around. There’s no picking of the sunflowers at Becketts Farm, so don’t go expecting to pick your own. Lodge…

Confetti Petal Fields are now open

Posted on 07/08/202006/03/2022

It is one of our yearly traditions as a family to head to the flower fields in Wick, Pershore, so when we heard the event was going to be ticketed, we couldn’t help but keep refreshing the page ready to get our tickets. Wick for us is a 50 minute drive, so we got up…

British Ironwork Centre

On Tuesday we headed to the British Ironwork Centre. It seemed the perfect stop off for our journey home from North Wales. A chance to stretch our legs outdoors and get a bite to eat. Entry to the British Ironwork Centre is FREE. When you first enter the park you drive by lots of large…
