We usually start the day with a relaxed breakfast together, which gives us a chance to chat and plan what we’d like to do. From there, we decide as a family how to spend the day depending on the weather and our mood.
Some days we head straight to the beach, whether it’s for a swim, a walk along the coast, or simply to enjoy the fresh sea air. On other days, we take advantage of the easy train links and go for a day trip into the city, exploring places like Liverpool or Manchester, wandering around, shopping, or visiting museums and cafés.
We also love being outdoors in nature, so hiking in the Welsh countryside or exploring a nearby national park is something we often do together. For something more active and adventurous, we sometimes go paddle boarding on one of the beautiful local lakes, which is always great fun.
Of course, we also enjoy slower days. That might mean taking the dogs, Lucy and Patch, for a long walk along the beach, then coming home to relax, read, or spend time together in the afternoon.
Overall, our days are a nice mix of adventure, nature, and relaxation, and we always try to make the most of where we live.
