We spent a week during the Easter holiday in Woolacombe and we had such a wonderful time, especially as the weather was on our side and the days were filled with sunshine. After travelling to our accommodation on the Monday, popping to the supermarket for a few essentials and enjoying our first BBQ of the year on the patio, we planned our days out for the rest of our visit. I still really like to be organised even when we are away from home so I know what we are up to and when and I can prepare appropriately.
Being spring there are lots of lambs being born and we didn't want to miss the opportunity of seeing and even feeding a few, therefore we decided to spend Tuesday at The Big Sheep in Bideford followed by the beach at Saunton Sands. It was just a 30 minute drive away from where we were staying so it wasn't too long in the car and the scenery in the area is so beautiful it felt like just minutes until we were parked up and heading through the reception area.
Firstly we went on The Big One, a brand new roller coaster which opened last summer and is great for little ones and adults alike. The Mini Mes really loved this as although it's not a white knuckle ride as such there are a few twists and dips to keep them excited! It's 400m long and reaches heights of up to 13m so there are plenty of squeals of delight while on board for the two laps. The gents running the ride were really amusing too and there was a lovely family feel about the entire attraction from start to finish.
