October Half Term

Child painting with a face paint palette on grass scattered with autumn leaves.

October half term, also known as Halloween/Spooky season. Here’s a list of things to do this October half term that are spooktacular!  

Audley End Miniature Railway

Costumed performer under an archway of pumpkin lanterns at the Audley End Miniature Railway.

The Audley End miniature railway is fun for children of all ages and will keep them entertained for hours. With several different activities, you won’t be short of things to do.

Outdoor Cinema Experience

Audience in striped deckchairs watching a film on a large outdoor cinema screen at dusk.

Fun for all the family can be a hard thing to manange, especially when trying to entertain a variety of ages groups, parents included!

Family Fun & GiveAway

If you and your family are in search of a relaxing way to take in the sights (other than going Punting) then book a cabin on Cambridge’s version of the London Eye. Situated in the heart of the city on Parker’s Piece the Ferris wheel affords super views of most landmarks and will give even locals an interesting bird’s eye vista of how Cambridge city centre is knitted together.

A Dinky Door Trail…

My big girl (6) was off school on Monday for a training day and stuck for things to do we decided to head into Cambridge in search of some Dinky Doors and a go on Cambridge’s newest attraction- the Big Wheel (more on that later…)

Let’s Go Punting x That Holiday Mum

A guest blog post from a very special customer: Chloe A.K.A. That Holiday Mum!
“We had thought about punting but having the baby we didn’t pre-book anything and just said we would play it by ear. And we don’t regret it!”

Inside a seasonal Business

Punts gliding along the River Cam past sunny riverside gardens in summer.

Let’s Go Punting, mainly due to operating outside, is a seasonal business, hitting its’ peak from April until late September. However, pre-covid, due to increasing low season demand, we were operating punting tours along the college backs all year round.

All On Boards – Brand New Picnic Boxes

Picnic boxes of sandwiches, scones, pastries and a grazing platter laid out on a Cambridge punt

We’ve entered this new season with a hand full of surprises for our customers. From our Audio tour app to our efficient and easy booking platform. Although the most delicious of all this news is our new partnership with All On Boards – a local business that has just set sail throughout the pandemic, for a set of three different picnic boxes.

Happy New Year!

With 2020 slowly coming to an end, it is time to look forward to the new opportunities that 2021 will bring. It is time to say goodbye to 2020 and be hopeful 2021 a better one globally

On a personal level Planning, a New Year’s Resolutions list is a great way to reflect on the year gone by and how you can make improvements to your life or those around you

As a small independent business, 2020 hit us hard with forced closures, adapting to become COVID secure and daily uncertainty like never before. However, we are still glad to have made the most out of what this year had to offer.
