Whilst Grandma Jo and Elle were down for the half term holiday, we visited Belton House in Lincolnshire for some Hallowe'en festivities. We dressed Mr Bee up in his little skeleton suit, looking like Donnie Darko and took part in the hallowe'en trails.
We saw absolutely hundreds of Ladybirds in the gardens, they were everywhere. We came to the conclusion that they like oak trees as they seemed to be nesting in the undergrowth, whether that was just a coincidence I am not sure.

The grounds really were truly beautiful, and expansive. There were the Italian gardens and the sculpture walk, plenty to see. The trail kept Elle perfectly occupied and Louie had a whale of a time running around. The adventure playground was awesome, with one massive slide that we went down rather fast.
Unfortunately the house was closed on the day that we went, which was a little disappointing, but it wasn't too much of a bother, we still spent most of the day there exploring!
We will have to take Papa next time :)
