Out of all of the places I have taken my nephew this summer we both agreed that Harewood House was our favourite. It isn’t just the house and gardens, but the fantastic bird garden, and grounds are great to walk around. This photo is of the stream that runs through the estate.

Today I took my nephew to Tropical World and Roundhay Park and what a great place it is. Roundhay Park has lots to offer both for kids and adults. There’s loads of great open spaces to relax, or play sports, picnics and family friendly. This is a photo I took of Canal Gardens.

Today I took my nephew to Harewood house and what a fantastic place for a family friendly day trip. These are the cute penguins we found enjoying the sunshine in the bird garden near the Terrace Gallery and bar. If you are lucky enough to arrive there at 2pm you’ll get to see the penguins being fed.

I took this picture of the Leeds waterfront, granary wharf, this weekend. I have no idea what the round tower is called next to the Leeds City Inn, does anyone know? I love the mix up of different styles of architecture. We’ll be publishing a number of Leeds waterfront guides in the coming weeks, so watch this space.

I think it is such a shame what has happened to the Leeds Corn Exchange, but it’s good to hear that the first floor is now fully rented out. It’s a magnificent building, inside and out, and I hope we’ll see a return of the busy Corn Exchange it once was.

I woke up to the sunshine peeking through my bedroom blinds, so I jumped out of bed, and headed to Kirkstall Abbey. Nothing better than freshair and a walk on a Sunday morning to blow off the cobwebs. Gorgeous morning, a bit cold, but I wasn’t staying in bed when it was sunny outside.
