Minimoon.....coastal vintage getaways!

Monday, 16 July 2012

Hello!

I have been looking recently at ideas for our mini moon, for our honeymoon we are hoping to go to America for a couple of weeks and see San Fransico and lots of other places, but this won't be happening for a good couple of months after our wedding. So as the new craze seems to be mini moons I have been looking at different ideas. I love the seaside and want to spend some where by the coast! and  love vintage, so would like to  stay somewhere a bit different. One place I have known about for a couple of years now is Vintage Vacations on the Isle of Wight, they have a range of different accommodation including some stunning Air stream caravans. But the one accommodation which caught my eye was The Shack, a stunning shack by the beach, here are a few images



Another option is to stay a little bit closer to home to one of my favourite places in Whitby, La Rosa. When ever we are in Whitby we always make a trip to their tearooms but we have never stayed at the B&B. If you are ever in Whitby pop into La Rosa for some tea and cake the surroundings alone are great!
La Rosa also run a camp-site situated between Goathland and Egton where you can stay in vintage and classic caravans, 'Roma's full of etched glass' a converted truck with a wood burner or a Tipi! and hang the night away in a big top circus with an open pit fire. Recently they've refurbished their onsite barn and opened Swallow Barn,. the barn comes complete with wood burner and a roll top bath to create the perfect romantic setting!



If we don't go to the barn I think the camp-site is a great alternative for a hen do.

Another place I came across to stay is in Deal Kent, I couldn't find a website for this property but bookings can been taken through Trip advisor. This a lovely fisherman's cottage just a stones throw away from the beach, Deal itself looks a lovely place to stay. 






So if you are looking for a coastal holiday with a little bit of a vintage twist check these places out!



I'm sorry blog! .... my week in pictures

Saturday, 4 June 2011

Hello,

I'm afraid I have neglected my blog a little bit this week! my computer has a virus so I have been unable to go on mine but hopefully it will be fixed by Sunday.... I hope I don't lose any of my work.
So due to me been unable to access my computer I have had to use my boyfriends so I have no nice images to play around with! Although I do have some images of some of things I have been up to this week.

 So this is my week in pictures...there are quite a few,




 
Bertie! my little puppy dog getting blown in the wind.

I went to the seaside twice this week!






  
This week was  my mums birthday so we threw her a little afternoon tea party and I made her, her favorite cake Chocolate Guinness cake, with cream cheese frosting.








Paul had a few days off this week so we went and visited one of my favorite places in Leeds, Swiss Cottage! I could spend hours in here ... and spend a lot of money












We also visited the famous Sunshine bakery http://www.sunshinebakeryleeds.co.uk/ in Chapel Allerton who hold the title of National cupcake champions 2010-2011..... yum yum









Well I think that's about it for now hopefully I will have some new work up next week and my computer fixed. Enjoy the rest of your weekend XXX
