We decided to have another three night break in North Lincolnshire, this would be ideal for our friend to join us but as it happened they had just returned from a five week trip and could not find the time to join us before Christmas. Our destination was Burton upon Stather just north-west of Scunthorpe. …
Iona goes to a Spa
Trip 17: Jubilee Park, Woodhall Spa. We missed the start of the season visit because the ground was waterlogged and all bookings were cancelled. We managed to book this trip before the park closes for the winter. Unfortunately the swimming pool has already closed, last year we were a week earlier and the pool was …
Iona heads 20 miles South
Trip 16, Pickering, North York Moors part 2. We left Whitby and headed across the moors to Pickering. Driving up and down some of the hills was interesting. Pickering was busy but we easily found our way to the new campsite. It is more of a lawn than a field and surrounded by trees and …
