A little hello from us! 👋

We've been a bit quiet on here lately! Between surviving the school holidays and slowly ticking jobs off the never-ending to-do list, we've been keeping ourselves pretty busy around the park.

Now we're getting everything ready for the long weekend ahead, and this beautiful wee moment this afternoon was too good not to share. ☀️

Sometimes it's nice to just stop and appreciate how truely lucky we are to call this place home. ❤️

Hope everyone's having a lovely week!

Well… apparently we spoke too soon. 😂❄️

Just over a week ago we were celebrating spring finally arriving at Mount Somers Holiday Park. The garden was bursting into colour, the trees were coming back to life and everything was looking very spring-like.

And then today happened. 😂

Snow falling through the blossom, settling on the tulips and grape hyacinths, and giving the whole park a very unexpected white coating.

Spring in Canterbury clearly does whatever the hell it wants. 🌷❄️

🌸 Spring has finally sprung at Mt Somers Holiday Park! 🌷

When we arrived at the start of winter, we had no idea what treasures this garden was hiding.

Now, just three weeks into September, it feels like every day there's another little pop of colour waiting to be discovered. 💛

I'm absolutely loving watching the park come to life, one bloom at a time. And the best part? There are still so many more gems to come! 🌼💚

Our new festoon lights are officially up and glowing amongst the trees. 🥰 ✨

Just Dad, casually up a tree… 😂🌳💡

The festoon lights are getting an upgrade around the park today!

Apparently when you run a holiday park, “other duties as required” includes climbing trees in the name of ✨ ambience ✨

Can't wait to see these all lit up tonight!

Meet Evie 🥰

Turns out our very regular little visitor has a name!

Evie lives just across the road but apparently considers the Holiday Park her second home 😂 She’s often around demanding cuddles and scratches, soaking up the morning sun and chittering at all the birds.

We absolutely love having her around, so if you spot Evie while you’re staying with us, make sure you stop and say hello and give her all the attention she clearly deserves. 😂❤️

What a difference 12 hours makes 🌕✨

After waking up to absolutely torrential rain this morning, we certainly weren't expecting to finish the day with skies this clear!

Not a cloud in sight, stars twinkling and the moon is ridiculously bright over the park tonight.

You really never know what you're going to get in Mt Somers 😂

There's always another project happening behind the scenes at Mt Somers Holiday Park.

This week's project?

A giant game of Noughts & Crosses!

We love adding little things that give families another reason to slow down, get outside and spend time together.

We can't wait to see it in action!

We've only been running Mt Somers Holiday Park for a couple of months, so we're still learning something new every day.

Running a holiday park is busy, messy, and full of jobs that no one ever sees. But little moments like this make every bit of it worthwhile.

We walked into one of our cabins after a recent checkout and found this note waiting for us.

It might only be a few handwritten words, but they reminded us exactly why we're doing this.

Thank you for your kindness. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay, and your note genuinely made our day. ❤️

The boys have been asking us for weeks to take them on an adventure, so with the weather finally playing nice, we headed out to Mount Sunday, better known to many as Edoras from The Lord of the Rings.

Safe to say... our new backyard absolutely delivered.

The walk was easy enough for the boys, with little bridges, creeks and plenty to keep them entertained along the way.

Then you reach the top and are rewarded with views like these.

We honestly can't believe somewhere this stunning is less than an hour from Mount Somers Holiday Park.

Snow-capped mountains, endless views and fresh mountain air... it doesn't get much better than this.

If you're planning a stay with us, make sure you add Mount Sunday to your list. We'd do this walk again in a heartbeat.

Have you been to Mount Sunday yet, or is it still on your bucket list? 🏔️😊
