I can’t believe today whizzed by so quickly.
We started the day with a breakfast to die for. We’ve had our fair share of holiday breakfasts and not all breakfasts are created equal! While they may look virtually identical on the plate today’s breakfast was a cut above the rest. Everything tasted extra good and the mushrooms were so inspiring Jeremy and Emily will be having them tomorrow.
A new family recently bought and moved into the hotel and they’ve only been here just over two weeks. We’ve spoken to the Mum and son and they’re at the start of a grand adventure. The hotel has been busy and they’ve been thrown in the deep end. The learning curve is steep and the workload high. I take my hat off to them and wish them every luck on their exciting, challenging new journey.
After breakfast we visited a tiny village with the unusual name of Boat of Garten. Just outside the village was a nature reserve and woodland area that is home to native osprey.

Then it was on to an adventure park – the Landmark Forest Adventure Park to be precise. It was only a few miles from our hotel and built in the woodlands that are abundant in this area. Attractions include a woodland walk, roller coaster, raft ride (luckily you didn’t get wet on this one as today was pretty cold), a harnessed 8m skydive, various tarzan style rope walks and the Bamboozeleum - a collection of optical illusions.
The kids loved this place and our 5 hours passed by very quickly. Steve and I both conquered the Skydive and Ropeworx attractions, although I give myself extra credit doing these because I’m scared of heights J. Both of these had, much to Daniel and Jeremy's disgust, a height restriction of 1.5m (only just scraped in myself!).
