Plantation House Hotel Ermington Devon 2025 20th May 2025
To celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary we decided to have an overnight stay and a nice meal at a hotel. About 3 miles away from where we live in Ivybridge in a little village called Ermington is a small hotel called Plantation House which although we have passed it on a number of occasions have never been inside. It has good reviews so we thought we would try it. [Read more…] about Plantation House Hotel Ermington Devon 2025
Talland Bay Hotel Cornwall Short Break 2025
25th March 2025. Steve (hubby) and I decided on the spur of the moment to have a couple of nights away in a nice hotel and not too far away from where we live. We came across the Talland Bay Hotel near Looe in Cornwall which looked very nice. They were also offering a package called the Boujee Foodie Spring Break which consisted of 2 nights luxurious accommodation, £60 per person dinner allowance each evening, Talland Bay No1 Gin & Tonic on arrival, delicious full Cornish breakfast each morning and tickets to the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

New Years Eve 2024 The Horn of Plenty Tavistock
It was an awful 2024 for us as we lost our dear beloved dog Archie very suddenly and totally unexpected at the age of just 7 and a half years in October. He was our world and he has left a huge hole in our lives and we miss him dearly so Steve (my husband) decided we needed a nice end to 2024.

Ruby Wedding Celebration at Lympstone Manor 2018
It is hard to believe but Steve and I celebrated our 40th (Ruby) Wedding Anniversary on the 20th May 2018. I have to say that Steve needs a huge trophy in recognition of him having to put up with me for all this time – as I am sure no-one else would have done!!
We are not really party animals (well I am, but Steve is a bit unsociable) so we decided to splash out and have an overnight stay in a posh hotel not far from where we live and plumped for the Lympstone Manor at Lympstone in Devon. [Read more…] about Ruby Wedding Celebration at Lympstone Manor 2018
The Treby Arms Sparkwell Devon For My 60th Birthday Meal
I turned the big 60 on 14th December 2016, Steve (my husband) booked a surprise overnight stay on my actual birthday at the Padstow Townhouse with a superb meal at Paul Ainsworth No 6 Restaurant, which was absolutely fantastic and a birthday I will never forget – it was perfect.
Steve also booked a meal at the One Michelin star Treby Arms Restaurant a couple of days afterwards as a joint celebration with our Son – Adrian who also has a birthday very close to mine.
