Over the Summer Holidays we had a mid week break at Ribby Hall Village near Blackpool. So what did we think? We had visited Ribby Hall in 2014 when the children were 4 and 3 and were keen to find out what had changed and what had improved. NB: We were hosted at Ribby Hall …

I love all the trimmings, the planning, the food, the presents, the carol concerts, the films, the excitement on Christmas morning, the fizz, the giddiness and the family time.

It is always tricky finding family friendly holiday destinations (hence this blog) especially with toddlers. After three trips to Center Parcs in two years for short breaks we fancied something different (and a bit cheaper) so we found Ribby Hall. An Alternative to Center Parcs so to speak.
