Beauty & Lifestyle





Hello lovelies! - Cornwall have a number of National Trust gardens (if you are a member, you get into those places for free). They are a great day out, and you are able to catch some great photos as the scenery is lovely!
Me and my husband went to visit Trelissick Gardens, which is about 4 miles out of Truro. It's gorgeous and it's set within a stately home with lot's of walking places through the gardens - It was perfect at this time of the year as all the leaves have changed colour and falling on the ground. 

There is also a gift shop and a cafe (We couldn't resist one of their yummy cakes). If you know me, whenever there is a cafe, I just have to try their cakes & hot drinks (festive drinks are a must in November/December!).

This place was the ideal opportunity to show you my outfit. This jumper dress and gilet are from Primark. Primark at the moment have some fab autumn/winter peices! The gilet was £13 and this dress (also has button details on the sleeves) I think was £8 or £10 - bargain!
My shoes are from Marks and Spencer for £35. I fell in love with them as soon as I saw them, and they will be so versatile for this time of year. They run quite small (I got a 4.5 UK size - I'm normally a 5) I adore wearing dresses, skirts with tights in the colder months.

It's been a glorious weekend here in the UK and I thought no better time to explore the outdoors and stop off at a coffee shop for a bite to eat. 
We both had a walk around Trentham Garden centre - which is a garden centre in Newcastle-Under-Lyme, Staffordshire. They have a huge garden which you can spend a day there with a picnic, and on a hot summer day, it's a really lovely day out - The gardens are is separate from the garden centre and is an extra cost.

We decided to stop off at a cafe called Manna kitchen. It's located just next to the entrance to the gardens.

My husband had a chicken & pesto toastie, a rocky road cake & a hot chocolate - how cute is this drink presented in this mason jar! Great idea!
I went for their carrot cake & a cup of tea. Their carrot cake is gorgeous - lovely and moist and the cream cheese frosting is so yummy too!

What I like about this cafe is the rustic feel with the plates and cups. I love little touches like that :)

Here, you can share your photo online of the gardens and you could have yours featured here!

They offer all sorts of food, from soup of the day, toasties, baguettes, cakes, cookies, muffins and brownies. They also have a number of hot and cold drinks which cater for everyone.
They have a board to show specials and also deals with tea or coffee and a slice of cake.


I always like to try out different cafe's and one's that are tucked away and have a quirky feel to them.

What new cafe's have you tried recently?
