Piran Meadows Resort & Spa, Cornwall, UK ♥

Hey guys!

Two weeks ago  I went to cornwall again haha! 

I doesn't feel like 10 minutes since I was there last time and posting the My week in pictures haha! 

This time we stopped at a caravan park which had only been open for about 2 weeks by the time we stopped there!

The park as a whole is stunning. There is a lot of greenery and well planned out with the positioning of the the caravans and parking areas giving you 'lots of room for different activities' name that movies? Haha! 

The caravan we stopped in was called St Austell, as you can see from the picture below! 

The caravan inside was stunning! As you can see from the pictures the set up is simple but with a modern twist. The whole decor throughout the caravan was beach-type themed with the stripes that you can see from the first couple of pictures of the front room.

The kitchen area was nice, the size of it is a standard size of kitchen for many caravans giving you the extra room in the living area. One thing that puts this site above many others is the little box that sits on the side in the kitchen. As you can see from the picture below there are many things in there from peppermint tea, oat cookies, breakfast tea, luxury hot chocolate, milk, green tea and ground coffee beans for the cafetiere that is also provided in the cupboard above. As well by the sink there was a small roll of kitchen cloth, a brush, washing up liquid and a sponge pad I also believe there was a tea towel provided. I honestly didn't pay attention to the washing up supplies, I just wanted to put the kettle on and have a peppermint tea haha! 

The bathroom room is like a standard caravan bathroom. This one was very clean and also by the mirror which you can see at the top right hand corner of the picture there is a small bag making an appearance. This was a little bag with shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, shower gel, shower cap and hand soap for by the sink. I thought this was a really cute idea. All of the liquids had green tea in them which smelt lovely to begin with and had left my hair and skin smooth!

This caravan has two bedrooms one double room and one with two singles. Both of these bedrooms were spotless and beautifully presented! The beach theme continued from the lounge to the bedroom which I think is really cute!

The beds in this caravan were so comfortable! I fell asleep on the double bed a few times! There was also an en suite with the double bedroom with a toilet and sink and some storage for cosmetics but i forgot to take a picture of it! 

The site as I said at the beginning was lovely and green! The club that they have there is also stunning! Inside the club you could play pool, bowling and a golf simulator as well as a kids area which included a photo booth, sweet machines and a huge screen to watch films on. There was also a swimming pool, sauna and gym from what you could see.

The food was lovely. We went into the club for an evening meal one of the nights and also for lunch after my brother went swimming.

They also offer other activities that are led by professional which you do have to pay for. My brother tried out the archery and loved it! I believe the price of this activity was £12. Myself and my mom went down to the shack/shed that they were holding the activity to watch and it looked like so much fun i wish i has put my name down. I think this is a great idea allowing the adults to then go for a swim, use the gym or pop into the sauna were under 16's are not allowed.

This site also offers free wifi in your caravans with the two codes they give you for 2 devices that you may have brought with you from home. I used my iPad and my brother used the Kindle we took with us. The strength of the wifi was good from the van but the only problem was that there was nothing really available to connect to or view. My brother enjoys YouTube videos when he is at home watching gamers such as PewdiePie etc but due to their domain we couldn't get access. This was also the case for silly things like Sky News, BBC News, Daily Mail and sometime Google homepage. 

The only other little hiccup we had at the park is to do with the passes which give you access to everything, this includes getting into the park itself via electronic barriers! They weren't given to us or explained to us when we picked our keys up and ended up spending about 30 minutes or more stuck at the barrier calling for help via the post that is situated before the barrier but no one was answering because reception was shut and security was not on duty yet. I feel like it may have been a little mistake that the passes weren't given out but there were several people around the lady that was serving us to remind her to give us them and no one spoke up.

However the site is lovely and everyone was friendly. I recommend going to this site or taking a look at their website www.piranmeadows.co.uk
I hope you guys enjoyed this little review. I thought it was something different from a beauty review or just posting pictures about my time there and it also allowing people who may want to visit the holiday park a look around and what they can expect along side the website above.

Next Noir Black Dark Luxury 3 Wick Candle ♥

Hey guys!

I thought i would share with you a candle that i have picked up recently. I know it's a tad random to do a whole blog post on just one candle but i have been wanting to get it for ages and now i finally have it i'm over the moon!

This candle is from Next. Due to my mom having a next account we got VIP access into the sale which is still on now if you want to go and get this candle or take a look at what they have to offer.

This 3 wick candle is original £15 which isn't that bad if you think about it in the way of a large Yankee candle jar being around the £20 mark. However i got it for £7 which is less than half price! They also do a 1 wick candle which is £9 so it is still a better saving getting the larger candle on sale than the small one.

On the website the candle is described as a decadent blend of deep florals including exotic orchid with rich amber and musk. You can smell a slight musk within the candle with the slight hint of the florals.
To me however this candle smells of foreign holidays. The smell of sun cream, coconuts, fresh air! It also has a slight chemically smell to me but not in a bad way! The entire smell reminds me of Greece and sitting by either the pool or being on the beach. It is honestly just amazing!

I also have to add that the packaging for this candle is stunning! As you can see from the pictures to outer packing is a stunning matte black box with ribbon detailing which a wonderful lift up lid with the shiny black and white candle inside! I am a sucker for good packaging! I just think it makes the overall product even better! I do that a lot with cosmetics and perfume bottles!

Candles are hard to explain the smell of due to everyone having different senses causing them to take on a smell which could be completely different to someone else. I recommend going to your local next home ware outlet and smelling this candle! Also smell the white version, i also think that one is stunning but the black on is my favourite.
Here is the link to the range this candle is from: Next Noir Black Dark
I am in love with this candle though! I am so happy i picked it up and for the steal of the price it was at!

I hope you are all having a wonder day!

New Zealand Adventures: Week 2 - Day 1, 2 and 3 ♥

Hey guys!
I am back with the next part of my 'New Zealand Adventure series'
If you missed the first one here is the link: new-zealand-adventures-week-1
I hope you all enjoyed the first one and lets get on with the next part!!

The site that we were staying in the next day was beautiful! The sun was out and the duck where begging for some more bread!

The next day we headed back into the town of Rotorua. The weather was beautiful, the sky was clear with a few cloud. As we were driving round the day before my nan saw a skyline gondola ride which she wanted to go on. That was our first port of call for the day! The view at the top was incredible! I took a panoramic picture while I was at the top just to show you guys how beautiful it looked!

While at the top my nan's son went on a luge. There were people from the age of 5 on the ride. It was funny watching everyone try and stay on the board as they zipped round the corners haha! Me and my nan sat in the sun chilling for a while before heading back down on a gondola. While we made our way up to the top we saw a cart go down past us with jelly bean stickers on it! It looked amazing! Me being the child I am wanted to go back down on the jelly bean on and made my nan wait for a couple of go back to get on it! The cart wasn't anything special but I just wanted to be in the jelly bean one!!!

As we finished that activity we had planned to go and see the Māori because the day was nice we didn't want to waste the day! We went to Te Puia which is home to the New Zealand Māori Arts and Crafts Institute and the world famous Pohutu geyser, within the Whakarewarewa geothermal valley! It was amazing to just walk around and be introduced to a new culture! While walking around we saw some of the geysers explode that were in the park and the boiling mud baths! I got pulled on stage to learn a tribal dance after we watched a performance. Lets just say I wasn't truly happy with the idea but thought why not, i'm on holiday and when on earth am I going to be doing this again! 

We then went back to the camp site we were in the day before and I cooked Sticky Chicken with boiled rice. I literally could have eaten all the chicken to myself. It honestly one of my favourite meals to have! If you've never heard of it you need to Google it and make it yourself!

The next day we made way to Napier. It wasn't anything special but my nan's son wanted to go so we did! Throughout my first week in New Zealand I had got beaten several times. I'm not sure what was biting me but something was so i headed to a pharmacy in Napier for some cream for them. The pharmacy's over there are so expensive, i was taking a look through the make-up section as i would and a lipstick which is around £3.00 over in the UK is about $10 over there! I can understand why beauty gurus like Shaaanxo off YouTube who live over there get it shipped to them from America haha!

After getting what I needed and having a little look around the town we headed off to Lake Taupo. We pitched up camp by the lake side and it was pretty much dark from the time we got there so picture taking was a bright idea at that point in time but the next morning was! Lake Taupo was created by a super volcanic that eruption approximately 26,500 years ago which is crazy! I believe its the largest lake by surface area in New Zealand!

The next day we were meant to head off to see a waterfall but it didn't plan out that way. We made our way there but headed off route and ended up at our next camp site where we spent the whole day. Chilling and relaxing... 

I'm going to leave this post here. The reason for that is because I want to do a while post on Hobbiton and that was the next day! I have so many wonderful pictures and fact which i want to tell you guys about the place and want to go into real detail that it would honestly be to long for this post!

I hope you guys don't mind me doing this post this way!

I hope you enjoyed this post!

Have a wonderful day or night whatever you are doing and stay safe!
