Like any other parents, we are always looking for ways to entertain our little one at weekends and during holidays.
Beaches, parks, museums, farms, cinemas, soft play areas - we are forever searching for anything that would make a fun day out. The Farne Islands, off the Northumberland coast, had been on our list for a while. We had read and heard a lot about this collection of tiny islands - a haven for seals and seabirds, and were keen to give it a go.
So we finally went on a boat trip there. We drove to Seahouses Harbour and hopped on a boat for a three-hour tour. This included a cruise around the Farne Islands and an hour on Inner Farne, where we were allowed to get off and take a look around.
