What if your next family day out felt like stepping straight into a storybook? 🌿✨

Hidden away in the Cheshire woodland, BeWILDerwood Cheshire - Magical family fun is filled with towering treehouses, enormous slides, wobbly zip wires, treetop mazes, mysterious woodland creatures and winding trails waiting to be explored. There are even miniature adventures designed especially for toddlers.

No screens, no ordinary soft play, just muddy knees, big imaginations and a wonderfully whimsical day in the woods.

Definitely one for the autumn family bucket list. 🍂

Ever fancied swapping Liverpool for somewhere that feels straight out of ?

Ancient ruins, misty battlements, grand interiors and castles surrounded by rolling countryside. Some of the most enchanting castles in the North West and North Wales are much closer than you might think.

From the romantic ruins of Lowther Castle and the Gothic drama of Gwrych Castle, to medieval Conwy, magnificent Penrhyn and even an overnight stay at Peckforton Castle, these are made for slow autumn weekends and spontaneous Sunday drives.

And this is only a glimpse of our full list.

Is it Liverpool… or have we somehow wandered into The Shire?

Tucked beside Greenbank Park, The Watering Can has that wonderfully cosy tavern feel, with its glasshouse setting, trailing greenery and warm corners that feel made for slower autumn mornings.

Settle in with a hot chocolate and explore the breakfast menu, then make the difficult decision between fresh pastries and the rather tempting selection of homemade cakes.

Greenhouse by day, cosy Hobbit tavern by autumn. We’re here for it.

📍 The Watering Can, Greenbank Park, Liverpool

Thanks to Carolyn Hughes and The Watering Can Liverpool for inviting us to experience the breakfast menu. We had such a wonderful time.

Weekend plans, Liverpool edition.

Sometimes the best weekends are the ones where you do something a little different. Book a spa staycation and properly switch off, take to the water with stand-up paddleboarding, challenge yourself with an afternoon of rock climbing or keep things beautifully traditional with a proper Sunday roast and all the trimmings.

Stay local, try somewhere new and make a little more of your weekend.
