Hull in East Yorkshire is a great place for a short break. We were City of Culture in 2017 and for good reason. There is a lot of things to do in Hull. We have numerous festivals including the massive Freedom Festival which is on every September, as well as festivals which hark to our maritime history.

We’ve visited The National Space Centre before and I don’t want to go over old ground.
On this visit, I noticed that the entrance layout and the cafe bit had been jiggled with a bit and it was a marked improvement. Everything else was exactly as I remembered it, which was good.

InflataNation is on Beverley’s Flemingate development, a (very) short walk from the train station and around 5 – 10 minute walk from the bus station. There is a multi-storey car park right next door which costs from £1 for 3 hours.
We visited here in July 2019 as an after-school treat. Thank you to InflataNation for inviting us.

In August 2019, we stayed at Delamere Forest Camping & Caravanning Club Site, supported by the Camping & Caravanning Club of which we are press members.

With half-term on the horizon, Lightwater Valley invited us up to have a day out and see what has changed since our last visit (back in 2013). I have to say that while we loved our day out there six years ago, we could see room for improvement. The improvements have been made, and more, and we had another fantastic day out. Thank you, Lightwater Valley!

Emma is a Mum of three, a recent repatriate to the UK after a lengthy stint abroad, and she last visited the Hawk Conservancy when she was around 11 years old (and she’s not going to tell you how long ago that was!)…

Team Honk is back!
This week I will be part of a team trekking 26 miles up,across, and down the Peak District. We estimate it should take about ten hours. The most I’ve walked recently is two hours, and we stopped to have a little picnic halfway through, so this should be fun!

SJ Works have kindly sent me a Smart Phone First Aid Kit for my bicycle to try out. It’s a first aid kit which attaches to my bike and also has a pouch for my phone. It’s a good addition to our cycling kit. Luckily, we’ve not needed it so far this year, but I look forward to getting out and about on my bike in the new year where hopefully, I won’t need it either. But better safe than sorry!
Today we welcome Gemma to the blog. She blogs at Yorkshire Mum of 4. Recently, she made the trip from West Yorkshire to North Wales with her family where they spent five days exploring what the region has to offer.
