Center Parcs Sherwood Forest

Back at the beginning of January, we had a short holiday at Center Parcs, we had been before to Whinfell several times and loved it but felt it would be nice to have a change.

This first Picture is a little random but I woke up early one morning, opened the curtains, looked out the window and was greeted with this beautiful sunrise! I just had to take a picture- look at all the colours in the sky, magical  : )

 

 We stayed in Lodge number 563 Oak area which was perfect because it meant we had a 10- 15 minute walk (or a swift bike ride) through the beautiful woodland to the main centre where all the shops and restaurants are located.



This was our lodge inside...
 
When we arrived, our lodge was warm and toasty- we were grateful of this since it's been such a frosty Winter!
 We were super impressed with how modern everything was. The kitchen was fully equipped, the view from every window was stunning and the bed sheets were smooth and crisp- perfecto!

 On the third day, we decided to head to the pancake house and although the forest still looked lovely and green, the weather was a little- er, grey (to be expected in January of course) we saw a sign labeled 'pancake house', turned the corner towards the beach and to our amazement, the sun beams were glistening on the lake and the golden sand was literally glowing! 

 I got the most amazing pancake, it was called 'cookie monster' It's a super sweet, topped with whipped cream, ice cream and oreos!
I would highly recommend it if you're going there anytime soon.

 Then on the final night, we put a log on the fire and toasted marshmallows- the perfect end to a perfect holiday

Thank you Center Parcs for making Winter bright : )
