Flower-filled SPRING BREAKS

Caerhays Castle
SPRING GARDENS, CORNWALL
Sprawling across 140 acres and overlooking the sea, these woodland gardens are home to 600 varieties of magnolia and 80 record-size trees. The county is famed for its early start to spring, thanks to the warming gulf stream, while its unique microclimate, made up of westerly winds and humidity from sea mist, allows the native Chinese plants to thrive. There are plenty of walks for all levels, and the castle itself is open on set days. Go to visit.caerhays.co.uk
Where to stay
It's easy to see why 17th-century inn The Lugger, tucked away in a little cove in the pretty fishing village of Portloe, was thought to have been a smuggler's haunt. B&B doubles from £132; luggerhotel.co.uk
Spalding Flower Parade
LINCOLNSHIRE
Taking place the second weekend in May and following a decadelong hiatus, this year sees the return of the Spalding Flower Parade. It began in the 1950s, celebrating the impressive tulips locally grown on The Fens' fertile soil. Expect large floats covered in colour-popping blooms (some are silk, after a decline in local tulip production), marching bands, a Lancaster bomber flyover, and plenty of family fun and activities.

'I loved the school run second-time round!'
How I dreaded the school run with my own children! I was always running late, either because of writing deadlines or because I hadn't allowed for sheep crossing the lane. Yet now I'm a granny, I love it! I still have the same deadlines, but I am never, ever late for collecting my grandchildren. Actually, I almost feel more responsible for them than my own children, and leave at least 20 minutes earlier than necessary. I already have drinks and healthy snacks in my bag, and a full tank of petrol. Back in the 90s, one of my three was almost late for an exam because I ran out of fuel.
