A Sunny Yorkshire Day Trip

This sunny weather England has experienced over the past few weeks has caused me to be pretty quiet on my blog lately. It's also been my 21st birthday (which I will blog about soon) so I have been too busy celebrating!

I have spent most of the sunny days in my back garden with my bikini, sun cream, and Elle magazine, but for a change my girl friends and I decided to venture out on a typical Yorkshire day out.

We had a mini road trip to Bolton Abbey, which is a gorgeous area in the Yorkshire Dales. With the heat being so intense, we just sunbathed, had a picnic and dipped our feet in the river.

It was pretty busy to say the school holidays hadn't even started, with children playing in rubber dinghies and couples having afternoon tea at one of few tea rooms. 

Quite embarrassing I got stuck on the stepping stones, I blame the weight of the picnic basket. 

It cost £7 to park the car, but when split between a few people, and if you bring your own picnic, it's a cheap day out. 

When the sun started to go in, we stopped off at a nearby pub, The Devonshire Arms, with the intention of having a drink and a bar snack. Unsurprisingly with my group of friends, it turned into a meal.

It was such a cute pub which was definitely worth the visit, and I recommend going if you were going to visit Bolton Abbey with it being so nearby.

Hope you're all enjoying the heat!
