We set off for the Maspalomas Dunes on what turned out to be the hottest day of the trip. Two kids, four kilometres on foot and absolutely no idea what was waiting for us at the end of the trail.

Our annual camping trip to Bala Lake was pure chaos and pure joy rolled into one. Picture this: 40 people, seven tents, one campervan, beaming sun by day vs freezing nights, toasted Babybels on the fire, canoeing on Bala Lake, a waterfall swim… oh, and me falling 8ft off a fence. It was bloody amazing and we wouldn’t change a thing.

A pebbly paradise with caves, cliffs, and just the right amount of British beach chaos. After four days camping at Haven Blue Dolphin, we ended our trip exploring North Landing, from soul-soothing sea views to painfully pretty pebble walks, mermaid-worthy caves, and classic “bikini one minute, jacket the next” weather. A perfect family adventure with a salty splash of history.
