An arts festival combined with a camping weekend in the beautiful grounds of a Cornish stately home. Yvonne and family braved inclement weather and made the most of the colourful array of performers, workshops, talks and spectacles that make Port Eliot Festival unique.
Schools are back, the mornings are chillier but that needn’t mean holidays are over. Autumn can be a lovely time of year for a family camping trip. Weekends away in the country, scrunching through leaves on woodland walks or catching a glowing sunset at the seaside are a brilliant antidote to term time stress. Here’s the ultimate family camping checklist to help you pack.
Once your children become teens their views on your much-loved family holidays can alter. Some are happy to carry on sharing family trips, others want their independence. Maybe your plans are ‘boring’, there’ll be ‘nothing to do’ and they’d ‘rather stay at home’. But it needn’t be like that. With some careful planning you can have some of your best holidays ever with your teens.
