If you’re stopping to eat in Albury – don’t stop anywhere else other than Public House! With lots of space, good food and a really smart interior why would you stop anywhere else on your trip between Sydney and Melbourne. It’s touted as a pub on its website but it’s so much better than what […]
We’re just back from Hamilton Island and yes, it’s as good as everyone says it is! The palm trees, the blue water, the light sand and the warm weather. Hamilton Island is a great holiday away with the kids. There is plenty to do for the whole family! Water sports, walks, a driving range, good […]
Family getaway to the Hunter Valley With our first school holidays we felt we had to make the most of it and have a family getaway. We’d never done the Hunter Valley and it seemed close enough to Sydney to keep the family sane during the road trip. So the family getaway to the Hunter […]
Australian Travel: Preparing to visit Hamilton Island We’re in Hamilton Island and in the lead up to our visit I have been researching extensively. I’ve realized that there isn’t enough information on what to take or what to pack for a visit. I’m hoping this post fills this gap. This post has been created following […]
The Hunter Valley Gardens The Hunter Valley Gardens is one of the most beautiful and expansive gardens I have been to. It’s just such a pity about the price of the visit. I’ll deal with this in detail below. With so many sections of the garden, there is something for the whole family to enjoy. […]
Sabor Dessert Bar I didn’t even know about Sabor Dessert Bar until I found a brochure for it in the hotel we stayed at. On the weekend we visited the Hunter Valley it was intermittently pouring with rain so we needed indoor activities. While this isn’t really an activity, it’s a delicious place to visit! […]
The pod playground in canberra has some lovely aspects to it but it wasn’t as good as I had hoped it would be. I’ve put this post together based on what I liked, what I didn’t and the basic information.
A weekend in the Blue Mountains There is so much to do if you’re enjoying a weekend in the Blue Mountains. There are plenty of hidden gems scattered around. Some of these are even child friendly. Since arriving in Sydney 3 years ago we’ve spent the odd weekend in the Blue Mountains and each time […]
Penrith with Kids Now Penrith may seem an unlikely place to explore but I love heading out west to explore this area of Sydney. There is plenty to do in Penrith with kids! You just need to know where to go. It is an expansive area and you may get lost if you don’t know […]
The Fairmont Blue Mountains This has to be the most family friendly hotel in the whole of New South Wales. I doubt that there is anywhere better for kids in Sydney or within 2 hours of Sydney that the Fairmont Blue Mountains. This last weekend, we had the pleasure of heading out of Sydney for […]
