Golden Acre Park - Beautiful Day Out

I love nature and I love exploring. Even more so when the said exploring can be done in the sun. 

Golden Acre Park in Leeds is the perfect place for sunny summer strolls and picnics.  

Last week me and the boy decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and have a picnic date in the sun.

The park is full of green open spaces which are perfect for a picnic or some sunbathing! Golden Acre Park has beautiful gardens full of colourful flowers (some of which I have never seen before!) and a very scenic walk around the lake and if picnics aren't your thing you can have some cake and tea at the popular tearooms. 

The lake  is just absolutely stunning, it really didn't feel like we were still in Leeds whilst we were at the park. It's hard to believe that such a beautiful place is situated only a 15 minute drive away from the city centre. 

It was such a beautiful warm day that I even got to wear one of my favourite summer dresses! 

I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing in this picture - trying to balance maybe?!

One of my very favourite flowers are Lilalcs. When I was a little girl I used to play in a garden full of Lilac bushes and their wonderful smell of them meant that summer was coming. Now every time I spot a Lilac bush I just feel the need to smell the beautiful blossoms. I got very excited when I discovered that there's a whole little garden dedicated to Lilacs. If you want to have a look at these beautiful flowers you better be quick as their season of bloom is almost over!

After our wonderful walk we settled down for a picnic of sandwiches, homemade cookies and a scrumptious fruit salad! 

Golden Acre Park is the perfect setting for a summer day out with your family, friends or that special someone and I can't recommend it highly enough. It's one of the most beautiful parks in Leeds and I will certainly be coming back more than once this summer!

Jadu Tea London Review

Anyone that knows me knows I LOVE tea. I have a whole cupboard dedicated to tea and drink a minimum of four cups a day. So when the lovely team behind Jadu Tea London emailed asking me if I would like to review their tea I said yes (and got very excited). A girl can never have too much tea. 

After I had a look on their website I decide that I wanted to try the Mint Melange, Roiboos Crème Brulee  and White Mango Lime .

You can order the tea in luxurious velvet gift box which I absolutely adore or in a more simple pouch.
