Last week we were staying at Bluestone National Park Resort in Wales and we had a fab time. I’ll be writing a proper post all about it soon but we really did have a great week. This was helped enormously by the fact that both boys slept very well – Gabe even made it all the way to 5:30 am before waking up (twice) and even then went back to sleep again until after 7! Barry and I managed to watch all four Hunger Games films while we were away so they must have been sleeping well!
The weather wasn’t great for most of the week but on our last full day there the sun shone and Toby and Gabe got chance to explore the toddler play area. Gabe seems to have come on leaps and bounds in the last couple of weeks both in his physical and mental development. He was loving exploring the park and it was small enough that we could let him loose a little bit…
On our way home we went to stay with my friend Claire who lives near Chester and had a day out at The Ice Cream Farm. It was good fun but very busy – trying to keep track of four small children intent on running in four different directions was a bit tricky but all the boys had a good time, and the ice cream was delicious! Toby loved the outdoor play area and was just running around all over the place…
What great pictures, we love bluestone #livingarrows
I saw the thumbnail and I thought ‘I recognise that tunnel’ and then clicked on and realised that you had been to Bluestone. We love it there. Glad you had a great trip #livingarrows
We love Bluestone and have been a few times. The play area is great and Gabe looks like he is loving it. I love the sound of an ice cream farm, yum! x #LivingArrows
Gorgeous photos and yay for sleep! X
Aww they’re both looking like they’re having an absolute blast. I love the sound and look of The Ice Cream Farm. What a fab place for children #livingarrows x
Great pictures. As soon as I saw your thumbnail in the linky I knew it was the new playground at Bluestone. We love it there, such a great family holiday destination within the UK! #livingarrows
Looks like they were both having a great time. The Ice cream farm sounds amazing #livingarrows
Lovely photos they look like they are having a great time.
One day we must visit Bluestone, it sounds great!
It looks like you had a great break – sorry about the weather, what a shame! So glad you got one good day though x
Lovely photos, especially love the colourful shot of Toby! We’re off to Bluestone in May and I can’t wait, I keep hearing such amazing things about it! x #LivingArrows
Great photos, Gabe looks like he’s really enjoying that park! Hope you managed to have fun at Bluestone despite the weather #livingarrows
I’m glad you had a lovely time at Bluestone – that must have been made so much better with the extra sleep! xx
You can always trust the good British weather to fail on holiday! We drove past the Ice Cream Farm the other week when up north and it took everything in us not to go in #livingarrows
Ah they both look like they were having so much fun! We loved Bluestone and would really like to go back, glad you enjoyed it xx
