Thank you for visiting my channel.
I share content all around the development of our 3 year old girl - from holidays in the UK and beyond, to fun stuff like pumpkin picking at Halloween, trips to the beach, nice walks we go on and visits to imagination worlds like Sundown Adventureland.
Along with enjoying all the wonderful memories that the early years provide when you are a parent, it is also important to ensure you have that downtime to relax your mind and essentially finding that peaceful place for you too.
With this in mind, you will also find content here such as relaxing walks, Spa visits, hotels and treats that my wife and I enjoy when we get that rare time to ourselves.
I hope you find some inspiration to help you in your journey of being a parent - and enabling you to parent with peace.

Forestry Commission destroys stunning area of Cropton Forest at Keldy Forest Holidays, November 2024
There is a short walk around Keldy, Forest Holidays, through beautiful desolate woodland, where we have seen squirrels, deer, pheasants, lots of wildlife over the years.
On a trip in November 2024, we were stunned to see the Forestry Commission has felled huge areas of woodland, home to these animals, for no other reason than selling timber resource for profit.
Huge areas of these forests have been felled over last 10 years in this area. Can see in some of the areas chopped down that spruce, pine and fir trees are starting to regrow through the awful landscapes of destroyed trees, but still doesn’t make it any less shocking.
Video shows current view, compared to a view in May 2021 of same forest area and and then a still of May 2021 versus November 2024.
Felling plan and background can be found here - seems the destruction of beautiful forest areas are only going to get worse - will be 25-30 years before they look anywhere near what they was.

Stayed here for one night in August 2024, nice bed, room a bit tight for a King: Was around £100 for one night which is good value in London. Around 15 minutes from Heron Quays in Canary Wharf, make sure you get off at Deptford Bridge - NOT Greenwich, literally can see hotel from platform. Few minutes walk from this station. Breakfast was nice, all the usuals with a Hilton, but one thing that s...

Recently stayed here for one night - very cheap mid week rates for bed and breakfast, booked in advance, but only by a week or 2, less than £100. It took seconds to check in, good start! The window of room looked out to the London skyline - really nice view, especially on a lovely day. Bit on the small side but very clean. Just a short walk from Peckham Rye station, which is super close to a lo...

Beautiful walk on the pastures of Beverley Westwood - especially at this time of year. Parking is free on Walkington Road, just park at the roadside. Lots of walks, lines across the pastures, can just go where the wind takes you. Lots of dog walkers, walkers, runners use the Westwood. It’s lovely at this time of year, sea of buttercups. If going in autumn, winter and early spring, take a pair o...

Recently stayed here for one night - very cheap mid week rates for bed and breakfast, around £120 booked a week before stay, 1/3 the price of nearby hotels, though a day or two before rates were very similar to other hotels. It took less than a minute to check in - great start. Room was lovely, nice and clean, felt quite new and fresh, just what you want at the end of a long day in London. View...

Popped to Hornsea for a brisk walk with our little girl and dog in blustery, windy conditions early April 2024. Needless to say, the waterproof cover came out for our iCandy pram and fur had his coat on. Totally different experience to summer time in Hornsea.

It’s a beautiful conservation area, wildlife is thriving, whilst parts of the the runway which are just still visible, the majority covered by developments. Walks are available down to Welton Waters or up the river moving north west passed BAE systems.

Doubletree says it offers free ferry to Canary Wharf, why did you have to pay?
@@steves2694 the ‘free ferry’ is really poorly advertised by the hotel. We couldn’t find a timetable anywhere for it online and we did our research beforehand. We actually left early on day of departure and the ferry entrance was closed at this point, so didn’t even get a chance to query this point with the hotel. Given all the reviews of it existing, though granted most posted online some time ago, I wouldn’t be surprised if it does exist, but they need to do a miles better job of saying when the free ferry operates, timetable etc. Appears to only run from the hotel and not to the hotel from the wording on the Hilton website too, though we did find some reviews of it operating in both directions, but again, these were posted online some time ago.
This place is brilliant. Took the kids here a few months back. The kids loved it. What a fantastic place.
this was super useful - thank you!
Good tour of the rooms floor 👍
Haha sorry I never even realised! Poor camera work, I apologise!
stunning
Weve got the same set. Any tricks to the doors on the wardrobe. ours aren't aligning no matter how much we fiddle with the screws after clicking in
Really sorry, we used the assembly service with Silver Cross - we got it free as a special offer. Only took their assembly guy an hour to do the lot. However, I’ve had a similar issue in the past with cupboards in our bedroom and used below youtube and worked for us: ‘How To LEVEL Wardrobe, Cupboard and Furniture DOORS’. Hope you get them aligned 👍🏼
Can you explain how to raise the cot mattress up please.. I have lost the instructions 😊
@@memyselfandi2845 so sorry, I didn’t get a notification for this. This happened to us too - was a right task - we almost took apart the cot the first time as we adjusted down as our little girl started to grow. Once we figured it out the 1st time, I kept instructions for moving to the next level down - which is basically just unscrewing 4 parts using the tools provided to built it in the first place and re screwing them into the next level you wish to move down to. We are now on the bottom level and will be turning into a regular bed next few months so will have to figure this out too!
