Packing as we speak to arrive tomorrow as planned! Carnival or no carnival, we are expecting to have the most amazing week away at our favourite place in the whole world! 🥰 Are children allowed in the Anchor for the bingo? We only have 1 and she is well behaved with a squash and packet of quavers in front of her 😆
