A couple of weeks ago I spent a long weekend with my family and the doggies at a luxury cabin out in the forest wilderness. To Blackwood Forest we headed!
It was a nice little place to head out to. Within the UK and not too far; plus we wanted somewhere to take the doggies with us. We were able to drive to all the little towns and villages nearby, including the seaside! It's so strange to have days of barely any reception on your mobile. How do people get in contact with each other?? I've turned into such a social media type.
You have to take a photo of the vintage beach huts!
Perfect footwear for the hard to walk on sandy beaches...
Day one was all about going to the beach, the doggies loved frolicking around in the sea. But oh what a mess they were with all the sand! Later we had some local grub at the pub which was super yummy. The rest of the long weekend was full of flea markets and general looking around in the nice sunshine.
Giant fishes in the stream - you can just about make out the shapes here.
Came across this amazing wallpaper in a house that someone had opened up for the day as part of the days event to set up stall. Ingenious!
Look how happy my Dottie looks :D
The event even provided a vintage bus ride to and from the nearest car park.
My brother, sis and her husband with the doggies.
We were at the Cockleman stall for some yummy seafood.
Loved those glasses but I have to hold off until I have my own place as I have no where to put anything. It's all in storage at my sisters house.
My sis and the doggies hanging out by the hot-tub which I didn't per-use.
As I was trying really hard not to buy anything for the reason mentioned above I only came away with one item. And it was a good choice as I will be using it so it's not stored away and out of sight!
A good sized basket weave box handbag perfect for the summer.
This little cheeky monkey thought she was still on holiday after we got back!
Toodles for now,
