Must Visits with the Family at Great Yarmouth

We went on holiday to Great Yarmouth over the summer and had a fantastic time! There is so much to do, so many beaches to enjoy, and lots of really delicious places to eat. After all of our exploring, seeing local sites, and hanging out – I have picked the top three places that we all had a really fun time at in Great Yarmouth, as a family! These places are fun for all ages and are stand outs from our trip that we all still talk about! If you are ever looking for more places to visit in Great Yarmouth, check out their Facebook page.

A Day Out at Hatter’s Farm

Hatter’s Farm is a local pumpkin patch that has the best prices when it comes to pre-booking in Essex! We went along last year and had to go again this year in our pumpkin adventures, as it’s known to have a large variety of squash, and we were looking for some pretty specific produce to eat up. Hatter’s Farm does have a lot of different and unique aspects to their farm, which our children really enjoy!

Cattows Halloween Farm After Dark

[Ad- gifted experience] Cattows Halloween Farm is a massive pumpkin farm that we had gone to last year, to check out the fair rides and all of the pumpkins too. This year, they have a new event under the name Cattows Halloween Farm After Dark. It’s an after hours, illuminated event that brings Halloween to an entirely new level, as there is so many bright lights and spooky haunts for the whole family to enjoy.

Cattows Halloween Farm After Dark is massive! We entered through a large tent, full of Halloween decorations, and are greeted by the fairgrounds. These fairground rides do cost per ride, with no wristband option, but are quite reasonable in price per ride. Amelia and Kai were a bit too big for a few of the rides, but still found some really fun ones to go on. The fair is in the middle of the grounds, with the food trucks being at the back end of the area. This food village only had a few food stalls open, but you could get your classic burgers, fries, nuggets, donuts, etc from them.

Glamping with CRE8 Glamping at Redricks Lake

This summer, Kai really wanted to go camping. He had never been camping before, so I am not sure what he had in mind, but I am not a camping person. I do not enjoy camping very much, and had done quite a bit of camping as a child. So, as a compromise, we booked up Glamping with CRE8 at Redricks Lake.

A Day Out at Aqua Splash Inflatable Assault Course

Over the summer break, we have been looking to go to all sorts of fun activities. After going onto a small inflatable assault course in our local swimming pool, we really wanted to try a bigger one, that even Robin could go on (as she didn’t make the height requirement for the swimming pool course). Due to Robin’s age and very short height, she’s not actually tall enough for most of these courses, however Aqua Splash in Sawbridgeworth had different rules, as long as an adult went around with her.
