[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to cheese, Dann and I are a huge fan of cheese with flavor. There are tons of different cheeses that claim to be infused with specific flavor notes, so we were thrilled to give Clawson Farms a try as we had not heard of their cheeses before. Clawson Farms was established in 1912 and has since made a name for themselves by creating award-winning Stilton and specialty cheeses. I must say, their packaging and naming is also fantastic, making for some great cheese for gifting!
[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to cooking pizza, everyone knows it’s better in a pizza oven. There is just no way to get your standard oven hot enough to really crisp up the dough at the bottom or to get those air bubble pockets that taste so delicious. As summer is approaching, it’s about time to get your backyard all set up for the season, so we were excited to be adding the Ooni Pellet Pizza Oven to our yard.
[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I were invited to the grand opening of St Osyth Priory, which has been renovated, bringing back it’ historic charm. It’s a stunning venue, with a bunch of different aspects to it. During the grand opening, we were able to hear about the renovations, hear from the historian about what has happened in the area, and generally tour the grounds checking out what it currently is and what the future would be.
[Updated on April 10th, 2025 to include more Easter Trails] We tend to go to a lot of seasonal events each year, and as we have explored, we’ve done a ton of different Easter Trails! As spring is full of nice flowers and better weather, taking advantage of the local Easter Trails in Essex and the surrounding areas can be a great way to get out and about with you and your family. Here are the best Easter Trails we’ve been too.
Meet the Easter Bunnies at Cammas Hall
Cammas Hall has an Easter Trail this year, which takes you around the back of their large farm! The Easter Trail does also allow you to pick your own tulip stems, at 50p per steam, before entering a very well decorated area of the forest, filled with clues and riddles, that goes directly through the bluebell forest. It’s very well decorated and includes a wishing wall, where a bunny tells you to make your own Easter Wish. When you get to the end, you are greeted by two bunnies, given some chocolates, and can play on a number of outdoor activities like bowling and slingshots. Inside Cammas Hall, they also have themed ice cream, pizzas and bbq items.
We have been to Cammas Hall for Halloween, bonfire night, and fruit picking over the years; they are just always running different themed activities, providing for a fun and easy family day out. This year, we heard about their Easter Trails and wanted to check them out! The trail itself can be pre-booked, with their little check-in booth at the start, They’ve got decorations, photo areas, and characters dotted around, but first we went to grab some tulips.
