As part of being a My Vouchers Codes, National Trust Ambassador, we visited a completely different National Trust property, unlike anything I imagine most people would expect from a NT property, this weekend.

Picnic time at Calke Abbey : National Trust
As its half term here, we have been out and about lots, trying to take advantage of any sunshine that we may have. Yesterday we took a trip to Calke Abbey which is a National Trust property in Derbyshire, and one with a difference too, but I'll talk about that later. We packed up some picnic things, as we'd get there for about midday, so ate as soon as we arrived, then wandered around the house and grounds.

Taking Your Dog On Holiday
Going on holiday with our dog Bennett is something we have only done once. He was very young (he's 6 now) and we took him for a week on the Island of Portland. We managed to find a cute pet-friendly cottage, about 2 minutes from the beach. I'll never forget those early mornings and evening strolls, sunrises and sunset, the sky bright pink and orange. It was so steep getting down to the beach that once he started to head down the hill the momentum and his little legs was hilarious, I can't ... read more
