Our October Half-Term Holiday in Somerset
This half-term we booked a four-night stay at Orchard Cottage, Somerset. We would be going away with our friends and Orchard Cottage looked like the perfect place to accommodate us all.

When we visited Walt Disney World in 2017 we debated if we should add a visit to the Universal Orlando Resort. I had visited Universal during previous trips to Florida when I was younger.
