Way back in August 2019 I booked for us to go glamping at Bumblebarn Bell Tents for the very first time. The trip was supposed to happen in summer 2020 but because of Covid that didn’t happen. Luckily, we were able to rebook quickly and easily so we chose the first weekend of the summer holidays this year for our trip and we were finally able to go last week!
AD | Press tickets On a day out a couple of weeks ago we started with a trip to Sea Life Great Yarmouth. Although we had been before a few times it had been quite some time especially with Covid meaning it had been closed for a while. This year at school Erin had been learning about sharks so she couldn’t wait to go back so she could see them again.
AD | Press tickets Having lived in Norfolk for the past 8 years now I have always heard things about the Hippodrome in Great Yarmouth but never had the chance to go myself… until the other weekend. We were invited to see the Summer xCircus and Water Spectacular, which runs until 19th September 2021.
AD | Press tickets We’re so lucky to live in Norfolk as we have so many fun things to do so close by. Around an hour from where we live (by bus) is Great Yarmouth, a well known seaside town, which was recently featured on Channel 5’s ‘Susan Calman’s Grand Week By The Sea’. We recently visited for a family day out!
Way back on Black Friday 2020 I booked myself and John another stay at The Assembly House in Norwich. We had been to stay in Room 10 before last year and we really wanted to go back. We got a great deal for a 1 night stay in any room (we got the biggest suite, Room 1) including breakfast and afternoon tea for 2 for £150 and we’d booked it for my birthday in March. That obviously didn’t happen due to Covid but we rearranged our stay for earlier this week!
We are lucky to have so many amazing places to have a day out here in Norfolk but as a non-driving family I always thought some of them were too hard for us to get to. This was what I thought about Bewilderwood Norfolk! We have been before but I think Erin was about 2 and we were only able to as we had someone drive there. This year we decided to figure it out though and we finally made it back for a day out. How to get there As I said, we don’t
Being a non-driving family we always like to find places in Norfolk that we can get to either by bus or train. One of our favourite places to visit is Wroxham as it’s only a 10 minute train ride away and then a short walk into town. Usually, when we go here we have a McDonald’s and then feed the ducks but this time we did something different. We booked a pub lunch at The King’s Head.
Although travel restrictions have been lifted and we’re free to go anywhere in the UK we like we decided that we wanted to stay local for this half term. We love living in Norfolk and we have so many amazing places to visit on our doorstep. Sometimes we like to stay in Norfolk and that’s exactly what we did this half term.
