Forest for the trees

Back from a long weekend at Center Parcs, Longleat to celebrate a 'landmark' birthday of a relative.

Never been to Center Parcs before and have to admit I found it a bit strange. It's well set out and there is plenty to do - even the really bad weather we had over the weekend didn't stop us from doing anything planned - but it feels a bit artificial, pretending to be remoter than it actually is. Is it really any different to a Butlins resort? Though perhaps a bit more middle class!

However, as with most breaks it isn't so much where you are as who you're with and a lovely time was had. For this sort of thing - a celebratory long weekend with multigenerational ages - it was ideal. A thoroughly enjoyable few days.
