Happy New Year!

A big Happy New Year from Fabulous Places!
2012 was a great year…I found lots of great new places to include on the website, fabulous food and gift events and two 64 page pocket guides showing you my handpicked favourites around Derbyshire. 2013 looks to be exciting too, with the fabulous two Markets at the Roundhouse in Derby and more printed publications, I can’t wait to get started! The website will also be going through a redesign, for no other reason than I love to design and I’m ready for a fresh new look!
Here are some fabulous dates for your diary:
1. Sunday 7th July 2013 – Summer Market
2. Saturday 16th & Sunday 17th November – Christmas Market
Both events will be held at the Roundhouse, Derby.
There will also be two more handpicked guides to Derbyshire available for Spring/Sumer and again for Late Autumn/Winter.
Speak soon!

November 26th, 2012 § 0
This year’s Christmas Market was a great success, such a lovely atmosphere with lots of gorgeous gifts and delicious food.
A big thank you to all the fabulous exhibitors, visitors, helpers and the wonderful Roundhouse staff. I would also like to thank Darby & Joan for hosting a delightful Vintage Tea Room and also Bluebells Dairy for dressing the event with gorgeous locally grown Christmas trees.
Congratulations to The Posh Pantry for winning Best in Show for Food and there were joint winners for the Best in Show for Gift, congratulation to Lavender grey and Amanda Hamilton Interior Design. I would like to say a huge thank you to all the exhibitors, I think you’ll agree that each and every exhibitor’s spaces looked fabulous.
I enjoyed the event so much and hope you did too!

An afternoon at Bluebells
August 9th, 2012 § 0The weather today has been amazing and I made the right decision to head to Bluebells to meet a friend. With the sun comes ice cream and at Bluebells they have amazing ice cream all made on the farm. I’m sure many of you reading this have tried Bluebells ice cream, whether it was on the farm or at a Fabulous Places event. I’m not sure what my preferred flavour is…chocolate is amazing, strawberry is delicious, but then the lemon meringue hits the spot, but then I tried mint choc chip, hmmm.
Bluebells isn’t just about ice cream, it’s a working farm and the Brown Family are passionate about making their home a place for families to visit and enjoy. There’s a farm shop, cafe, outdoor play area and an area where you can feed the animals…pigs, goats, sheep, chickens, rabbits, the list goes on. It’s a great way to introduce little ones to a farm environment.
The weather looks great for tomorrow…get yourself to Bluebells!
Here are some photos from our day…
