[Ad- gifted experience] Cammas Hall is always putting on fun events throughout the year. From their Pick Your Own Strawberries to their Easter Trails, to their Bonfire Nights – there’s just always something fun going on. We’ve been to Cammas Hall for their Pumpkin Picking event for the last few years and love to see what new things they do and how it grows! This year, we were truly delighted to be invited along to be special guest!
Some evenings, having a local event to head over to makes a lot of sense for us. We are a couple that enjoys going out, so we have headed to Novo Lounge for their Quiz Night a few times now! Previously, we did check out a bunch of the tapas at Novo Lounge, but after attending like three quiz nights, decided it was time to right them up! At our local Novo Lounge in Harlow, our quiz master is a fantastic guy who is always full of energy. The entry price is £3 cash, which goes to a charity, and the quiz itself is set by Redtooth, and presented by Novo Lounge themselves.

We have gone to every pumpkin patch we could drive too over the last few years! There is something just fantastic about visiting a pumpkin patch in Essex. Whether you are looking to pick out the perfect carving pumpkin or just hoping to have a spooky day out, there are plenty of options and so many places that have little unique features. We’ve put together the best pumpkin patches to visit in Essex, so you can explore with your own family.
Dann and I have been looking to do more local events in our town and came across the Redchurch Brewery, which offer monthly beer tasting and tours! Dann was very excited to try out new beers and had no idea that they did tours, so we eagerly waited for the date to come up. The Redchurch Brewery is a small local, brewery that brews a bunch of beers in massive vats. We got the chance to sample five different beers, all of which were made there.
The afternoon at Redchurch Brewery started off with a beer of course – their premium in-house beer. Everybody was given a half-pint of the ‘Redchurch premium lager’ while we were talked through the different parts of the tour. The tour kicked off with an explaination of the brewing process and what goes into making different beers and alcoholic drinks, as well as a history of the brewery itself and how it has changed owners over the years. We all got the chance to smell a selection of different hops and ingredients, and there was some really interesting charts that showed how different ingredients create different types of beer.
[Ad- gifted experience] We have actually attended Coda Falconry‘s previous location, for an owl walk, during lockdown – but they have since moved to Hobledown Heath, a sort of outdoor adventure park that we also went to, before they moved there! Now that Coda Falconry is on the premises, they put on a bunch of free to view bird shows and have various, bookable experiences (including the owl walk), that also give you access to the rest of Hobbledown Heath too! We got the chance to do a 1-hour bird experience with Coda Falconry, which allowed our family of five to hang out with three different birds, casting them off and having them fly to us.
