Our tired little family is feeling much better after a quick weekend camping trip. Children running wild for hours on end, river swimming, treasure hunts, cooking marshmallows on the fire, lazing around chatting, and four little girls beaming with pride after enjoying their first horse ride. Magic.

We stayed at Glenworth Valley. This beautiful valley is the perfect place for a quick weekend get-away. It's only an hour or so from Sydney or Newcastle and minutes from the central coast.

Need a little magic yourself? Ignore all those excuses that usually keep you at home and head out on an adventure next weekend.

Have a lovely week.
