Starting to get back into exploring different bits

Starting to get back into exploring different bits of the UK and wow does it feel good.
If anyone ever asks about my favourite country, I always say the UK is one of them. In my opinion, this little island of ours is wildly underrated. From bleak expanses of moorland to the most beautiful mountain views and crystal clear waters in tucked away coves, we have pretty much got it all so why not make the most of it? ⛰ 🌊

I just had to take a snap of these roof tiles as I was passing, I don’t think I’ve ever seen writing in them like this before!
I just wish I’d had the chance to go inside and take a closer look at, what I’m guessing, is a pub packed with character 🍺 (and we all know that I love a good pub and a pint)

Walking through valleys, scrambling up hills to ge

Walking through valleys, scrambling up hills to get a better view and looking into little hidden caves takes me right back to being the 7 year old that loved exploring🌲

Castleton is the cutest village but also has so many hidden gems around each corner, just like this little shop!

If I could have a cute little cottage like this on

If I could have a cute little cottage like this one day I’d be very very happy 🏡I’ve lived in the same little Northamptonshire cottage for my whole life so the idea of living in a new build or much newer house seems odd to me. I think big beams and wonky staircases and unusual doors will always feel like home to me 💫

As a serial #latergram poster I was anticipating that this would look hideously out of season by now, but with this weather being so damn unpredictable I think I’ve almost gotten away with it! (Just imagine there are a few more leaves on the trees 🌿)

They say nothing in life is ever certain, but one thing is for sure - I will never get bored of finding pretty little villages and rolling hills 🏡

Isn’t Chatsworth House a beauty?! It’s definit

Isn’t Chatsworth House a beauty?! It’s definitely one that’s on my list to visit again now the weather’s getting a bit warmer. Also, if you happen to be wondering - yes, that is gold leaf all around the window frames, over 3,675 sheets were used to decorate the exterior of the building! ✨

I’m almost certain that you’ll have seen this

I’m almost certain that you’ll have seen this house somewhere on your Instagram before, but it’s such a lovely spot that I couldn’t not post a shot myself!

I’m almost at the end of my “Easter” holidays and will be starting my new term at uni on Monday and I’ve got that horrible feeling that I haven’t done nearly as much as I wanted to! It might sound odd, but at times like this I love writing a “done list” rather than a “to-do list”. It’s a great way to take a step back and reflect, especially when you’re in one of those slumps!

Happy Sunday, you lovely lot! . It’s almost the

Happy Sunday, you lovely lot!

It’s almost the end of term for me so I’ve been tucked away with an essay, wishing I was back at Waddesdon with some slightly nicer weather☀️
.
Seeing as I’ve got 2 weeks off coming up, I’m planning on going on a few day trips.
.
Top tip for you: save all of the places you see on Insta or online in a “Places to Go” section on the Google Maps app. That way, if you fancy a day trip, you’ve instantly got loads of ideas at your fingertips without having to research!

Where are your favourite places to go on day trips? Let’s see if they’re on my list!

The Palladian Bridge at Stowe is one of only 3 bri

The Palladian Bridge at Stowe is one of only 3 bridges of this kind in the UK. However, for me it’s far more special for another reason.
.
I’ve lived in the same sleepy Buckinghamshire village for my whole life. I used to spend summer days outside climbing trees or playing in the woods, but I always got most excited about a trip to Stowe. As a child it was like a completely different world - with follies and valleys, bridges and lakes it took me to wherever I wanted to be.
.
I’ve been visiting Stowe for 20 years now and it still holds the same magic for me, a magic that I don’t think will ever change. If you want to find me in my happy place, you’d better start looking here 🌿✨

Okay so this was definitely taken back when it was

Okay so this was definitely taken back when it was a lot warmer but please excuse that (serial #latergram poster over here 🤫)

This beautiful aviary lives tucked away in a corner of the gardens at Waddesdon Manor. Similar in appearance to the trelliswork pavilions at the gardens of Versailles, the aviary was created to be a sign of the power, wealth and knowledge of the Rothschild family.Now, the aviary is part of numerous breeding programmes with over 1/3 of species here at risk of extinction. The Rothschild Mynah is one such bird, with just 6 birds left in the wild in 2001 - however the aviary is working to reintroduce more of the birds back into Bali. 🦜
