Family holiday obsessed, we love to try out family friendly places and over share all the details so you know exactly what to expect.
Why use Exeter airport?
If you’re based in the West Country and looking for a stress free start to your holiday, Exeter Airport is an absolute gem. With a great selection of European destinations throughout the summer and year round flights to Amsterdam which is perfect for connecting to the rest of the world, it makes family travel a breeze.
It might not have the glitz and glamour of a big international airport, but don’t worry you can still pop into WHSmith, grab a coffee, and pick up a bite to eat. The real highlight? You can go from parking your car to reaching your boarding gate in record time. This small but charming airport really takes the hassle out of travel.

Hi, I’m a mum of two lively boys and married to a husband who (unfortunately) keeps my holiday obsession in check! We’re all about fun, active family getaways as relaxing isn’t really in my boys’ vocabulary!
Our go to destination is the UAE, and over the years we’ve tried and tested plenty of hotels and experiences, which I love sharing on Instagram. Living in beautiful Dorset, I know just how exhausting the trek to London airports can be especially after a long flight. That’s why I’m here to help you discover amazing holiday deals flying from our more convenient local airports of Exeter, Bournemouth, and Southampton.
Whether it’s travel tips, hotel reviews, or family days out, I’m all about sharing our adventures and hopefully helping you find your next great holiday at a brilliant price.

Unpopular opinion - but babies aren’t the worst encounter you could have in upper class….
I feel like I am on my own when I say this, but upper/business class is very overrated. People told me I’d never want to go back to economy, but luckily for me, I’m much more of an economy girl at heart. I did another business flight shortly after this in the Q Suite with Qatar, and I got the sh*t’s from their lobster mac and cheese - that was the nail in the coffin for my brief encounter with the boujee life 🫡

The fact I caught him saying this on camera 😭🥰
We managed to visit the Maldives on a budget by staying on local islands as opposed to expensive resort islands. These islands are much cheaper, not only for accommodation but for the day trips too. All of these experiences would have cost a fortune from a resort. A full day renting a boat for our family, seeing dolphins, sharks, sting rays and even lunch was only £160 for us all!

We did this as part of our budget Lapland trip!
(Give us a follow for tons more great travel ideals 🫶🏻)
This stay in itself wasn’t particularly budget, but, the joy of cutting back in all the other areas means things like this become affordable! @lakeinarimobilecabins offers this experience along with lots of other day trips and fun activities.
I have a whole blog post on how we did a week in Lapland for under £3000 (including everything from the clothes we bought to petrol!)
