Places To Visit In Majorca With Children

AD - Paid Post. 


In May we went on holiday to the beautiful island of Majorca. We had a wonderful week in the sun and I know that we will return again one day as it is the perfect destination for a holiday with children. It has a short flight time of just two and a half hours from the UK with daily flights and lots of hotels and resorts to choose from.


So what are the must-see sights in Majorca?

Is The Nissan Leaf Electric Car A Good Family Car?

AD - Paid Post. 


In recent years electric cars have become really popular with charge points popping up in local towns and cities all around the country.

 I will be completely honest and say that I didn't know a lot about electric cars and I honestly thought they weren't for families like my own, who like to go on day trips and use a car fairly often. So when we were set a challenge of taking an electric car on a family day out by Lookers I was curious to see what it would be like and how it performed as a family car. 

On Saturday we were invited along to our local Lookers Nissan dealership in Newcastle to collect the car we would be test driving, the Nissan Leaf. The staff were friendly and helpful as they demonstrated how the car worked and explained all the extra tech and features that the car has, it has a lot!

All Inclusive Food At The Pirates Village Hotel Santa Ponsa Majorca



On our recent family holiday we stayed at the Pirates Village Hotel located in Santa Ponsa, Majorca. Travelling with our three children we decided to go all inclusive as it only worked out about £500 more than self-catering and we thought it would be best with the children. 

Before we went I tried looking online to see what the food was like, but there was not much information available and I was a bit worried as my daughter is a very fussy eater. So I thought I would write this post in case anyone is else is visiting and is wondering what the food and drink are like on the all-inclusive package.

Flying With Jet2 To Majorca



Over the past few years, Jet2.com and Jet2 Holidays have become really popular, especially here in Newcastle where they have a base. So when we were looking to book a holiday last year my brother recommended that we book via Jet2 Holidays, as he had recently been on a Jet2 holiday himself.

Wedding Outfits From Roco Clothing

AD - Review Items. 


Next June I am getting married and now it is just a year away I am starting to get organised and get everything sorted for the big day. I am having all three of my children as bridesmaids and page boy and also my two nieces as flower girls and I had no idea where to start looking for outfits. 

I had heard a few people mention Roco Clothing in some of the wedding groups I am in and comment on what lovely children's formal outfits they sell at great prices. A quick peek at their website and I knew this was where I would be getting my flower girl dresses and page boy suit from.
