Wow Factor Wedding!

Wedding celebrations at Singleton Lodge!

We went to a beautiful wedding this weekend at Singleton Lodge Hotel – what a gorgeous place! It’s just outside Poulton on the way to Singleton and is a really beautiful venue for a party. The grounds are stunning and made a great backdrop for the photos. Inside is all new with a few lovely rooms to sit and enjoy a drink. The main dining room was really pretty and the food was great. It has hotel rooms too so many of the guests were lucky enough to be staying over. Definitely worth checking out if you are planning a special occasion.

What a lovely day to be in Poulton!

Poulton Park

I was proud to live in Poulton this weekend as the monthly farmers market came to town and the first ever picnic in the park organised by Wyre Council took place on Saturday.

It was great to see so many people out and about enjoying what was almost a sunny day! The market was as good as ever, full of lovely treats to buy. I got some nice food for the BBQ and cookies for the kids. Lunch was a sausage barm at the market – the poor man couldn’t cook them fast enough there were so many people there.

On the way back home we stopped in at the picnic in the park where the kids enjoyed ice cream, face painting, Thomas the Tank engine and a good play on the bouncy castle. Many of Poulton’s best shops were out offering everything from kid’s hair cuts to mini manicures! A quick go on the swings and a run about and we’d soon spent the whole day out. Lovely.

I Knew I Was Right!

Family life - at home in Poulton

It’s official, Wyre is a great place to live. I knew that when I decided to make the move from Yorkshire to live here eight years ago, but now it’s been confirmed! The recent 2010 Life in Wyre Survey has revealed that 87% of us are happy with our local area as a place to live.

Since moving here I’ve grown to love my local area. It’s a beautiful place to live, there’s loads going on and some great places to spend time. I especially love life in my home town of Poulton, but we’re very lucky to have so many parks, family attractions, nice places to eat and of course the beaches just on our doorstep! It feels like a very safe place to be too, perfect for family life!

What a nice way to spend a Saturday!

Yet again my weekend seemed to revolve around food, kicked off nicely by a visit to Poulton’s monthly farmers’ market! Having a look round all the stalls and buying some really good local produce was a very nice start to my weekend indeed. Even got a few handy recipes for the autumn veg I bought! We’ll definitely be there again next month.
