Hidden gem cafe, Nottinghamshire

This cafe is hidden in the small village of Eakring in Nottinghamshire. The Daffodil Tearoom has a community spirit that is unmatched by any cafe I have ever visited, super friendly staff that know all the regulars and it really felt like 🎶 "The place where everyone knows your name" 🎶.....

I sat here alone... But not for long, I enjoyed chats with multiple different customers, staff were super chatty and I genuinely sat her for over 3 hours and it felt like 10 mins.

I enjoyed multiple coffees and when I requested a change to my order, they did it happily (and it was delicious!).

The cafe is dog friendly, has indoor and outdoor seating, a cosy snug (that you can hire) and services as the venue for support groups, book clubs and has evening events.

Oh I saw the afternoon tea and ploughman's come out... Wow! I'll be back for one of those!

Anytime I want to grab my laptop and work outside of my home, you'll find me here!

Drop them a follow and tag a friend you would like to take, it's worth the visit!

Hidden gem series - Made the paper!

This morning I was informed that I have been mentioned in the Newark Advertiser for my video on .
Newark Toy Den . I couldn't be happier that my video has made such an impact on a small business and I want to thank every one single one of you that has visited Newark toy den after seeing it.

Social media can be a horrible place at times and people often see 'influences" or "content creators" in a negative way, however we can see here that it's not all bad.

I have visited many hidden gems in my most recent series and I can see how many of you tag your friends or say "I never knew that existed" and you make plans to go.... And whether that business was thriving or failing between my video and you paying it a visit, we have bought that business new custom and income and that's an incredible thing to have happened off the back of a little video.

Social media is a powerful tool and I'm so proud to be using my platform to show you some amazing places and for small businesses to benefit from having more eyes on them

If you have been to a hidden gem after seeing one of my videos tag them, share your experience or let me know where to go next

This rustic cafe is hidden behind Woodborough Green Garden Centre which means you get to look around the beautiful shop and flowers.... And enjoy a piece of cake!

This gardens centre has the most beautiful gift / homeware shop and it's worth noting that it's Christmas (sorry I know it's June!) section is incredible!

If I could keep any flower alive I would have spent a fortune, but if you are more green fingered than me you will love the large selection of indoor and outdoor plants.

Nottingham review, experience

AD Hidden in plain sight in Nottingham city centre is Gloryholes Golf and this review isn't for the easily offended.

I took my best friend and had an absolute blast, but this place skips over innuendo and goes straight to plain rude!... Each hole is naughtier than the last and I enjoyed the shock factor every time!

A member of staff is always close by to serve you a.... Erm Cock-tail from their cheeky menu. If you are looking for a night out with a different this is perfect for a date, hen/ stag do or just a night out with friends... It's a real laugh!

✨New review✨

Yesterday I went to Gloryholes Golf with my best friend in tow, it was naughty, funny and well.... just plain rude!

Every hole was a little more shocking than the last and we were fueled by the very naughty cock-tail list.This is the perfect stop for a hen do, a night with the girls and even a date.

We had such a laugh and I can't wait to share the video later today, this is definitely one for over 18 only!

Hidden gem cafe - Newark, Nottinghamshire

This hidden cafe in the small village of Kneesall and it's almost too good to share, a follower recommended that I try The Hay Barn Cafe, Kneesall, Newark and it did not disappoint!

I spotted the corned beef hash on their page earlier that day, so I knew what I was having before I even arrived.

The staff were incredibly welcoming and the barn was so cosy, I loved the interior so much, the giant window made it bright even on a rainy day. The food was delicious and the coffee..... Best I've had at a cafe so far.

I visited the cafe for lunch at approx 12pm and I had a short wait for a table, but it was so worth it, If you're going I recommend going for opening or after 2pm when it seems to get a little quieter.

I will definitely be back! One of my favourite cafes so far in this series.

Uniqlo dupes at TU Clothing Sainsbury's

I love uniqlo's range of built in bralette tops and dresses, but when I saw Tu Clothing with a range of dupes I had to try them!

I picked up a dress with a built in bra for £18!... My vest top from Uniqlo is £20 and although I love it, a cheaper dupe will always be welcome in my wardrobe.

As someone with a fuller chest (32E) I honestly didn't think this style of clothes is for me but they work so well!, and look much smoother than a bra does under your top.

This definitely made it into my summer wardrobe..... When summer turns up.

Sainsbury's clothing has definitely leveled up!
