Center Parcs, Sherwood Forest


A few weekends ago, me and my bestie (and her Ma!) spent a long weekend in Center Parcs! I'd never been before, so I was pretty excited as everyone I know raves about it. We got there on the Friday and returned on the Sunday. On arrival, you feel straight away like you've entered into a little bubble separate from the rest of the world! There's loads of trees and trails, and you park your car away from your residence - meaning you either walk or bike everywhere! Naturally, we hired some bikes and immediately got bum ache. But the childish excitement of being back on a bike soon overrode the discomfort! Whilst there, we kayaked, walked, went on a bike ride, did a weird "drum" class that had us doubled over laughing, and swam at the huge water park they have there! We hand fed squirrels, got chased by mammoth swans, and ate American-style pancakes at The Pancake House. I absolutely loved the mini-break and would hugely recommend it!

Here's some photos I managed to take whilst there (apparently I was only interested in how close I could get to the animals!)
