- Much of the British coastline has a number of adventure centres where you can go kayaking, abseiling and all sorts of other coastal based activities but this one deserves a special mention because it has an unusual range of activities to boot so if you are looking for something original, try landandwave.co.uk which offers axe-throwing, jumbo paddle-boarding, coasteering and deer butchery. Not for the faint-hearted but certainly a top day-out for boys. Meeting points are at different venues in the area; for example jumbo paddleboarding (for up to 8 people on one board) takes place at Sandbanks, Poole harbour.

- If you are holidaying in Devon or Cornwall, look at our extensive blogs from last summer covering all the award-winning places to eat, best beaches, historic sites to visit, top wild swimming spots as well.
- Let’s not forget that this is Point to Point season either. A truly memorable day out (provided the weather stays balmy!) We have found a Point to Point Directory here. Put 14th April in your diary at the very least and get a family sweepstake going on The Grand National.
- Going for a walk or bike ride is one of the few things you can do for free in the holidays but don’t forget all those amazing local museums and art galleries, and your local library which are nearly always FREE.
