The Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William were spotted at St Mark's Church in Bucklebury on Christmas Day in 2016.

The farm has this sorted as well as it boasts an extensive play area fitted with a zip wire, slides, swings, go-carts, bouncing pillows, frames, and more. This takes place at 11:30am, 1:30pm and 2:30pm throughout the day.Ī favourite activity for kids in the summer months is of course, outdoor play. On Fridays and Saturdays, it's also possible to sit and listen to Farmer Emma as she tells some stories at the Story Teller Cottage. There are morning and afternoon slots for the rides. The farm is also a deer park and this means that visitors can purchase deer tractor rides - which are essential to book in advance.

Back in February, the owners of the farm sought permission from the council to install a new play barn and make some other improvements to the site. Kate visited the site when George was a toddler and the Daily Mail named it 'Prince George's favourite petting zoo'.

The farm was actually bought by Pippa Middleton's husband back in 2020. Bucklebury Farm is nestled in Pang Valley, West Berkshire and is home to thousands of farm animals as well as a cafe, play area, and more. One such place is a farm loved by Royals and locals alike. The response is deafening a thunderous response from a fandom that is clearly well-earned.Now that schools have broken up for the holidays there's the question of what to do? For those of us in Berkshire, there are quite a lot of activity centres and places to go that are perfect for a family outing. To finish, the band challenge Bristol to be their loudest crowd yet to earn an appearance on their Instagram. The encore is more like a curtain call, with each band member given the chance to perform an electric final solo. The live setting allows the band to play around with their content. I say that, but Caravan Palace's performance also boasts unexpected moments of dazzling musicianship, including marimba solos and live vocal filter sampling. Though they don't have the musical depth or complexity of many competitors, they can practically guarantee to get you moving, no matter your mood. It's something they accomplish better than most live acts I have seen. Now, this is what Caravan Palace do best: they can so easily encourage their audience to have a boogie. However, the level of energy in the venue compounded with the packed crowd is truly uplifting, and it is special to see the odd pockets of partnered swing-dancing and circle dancing, even if most punters are relegated to enthusiastic head bobbing. The choice of venue for such a popular act is awkward in some ways, with very few spots where the performers are clearly visible, and even fewer with enough space to dance (something that their music so actively encourages). The depth and volume of the O2 speaker system cause each and every beat to thump with real force, making it almost impossible not to dance along listening to these guys at home really does not compare. The sound set up is also absolutely fantastic, too an aspect that really shows off Caravan Palace at their best. Audience interaction is also actively encouraged, with some moments of call and response and even a step by step participative dance number. Blue hues for quieter songs contrast glittering golden sparkles and strobe lighting for explosive moments of volume. 'Love Digger' even brings an impromptu mid-show ovation a highlight of the night that is deeply enhanced by the tour’s production value.Ĭaravan Palace's stage production is a treat - if not hugely innovative - with a glitzy light show and street dance solos joining the backdrop of an illuminated robotic mascot, which playfully reacts to significant moments in the performance. Some newer releases from their latest album, Chronologic, lower the energy of the room: it’s clear that old classics like 'Lone Digger' and 'Suzy' are what has brought the faithful out in force, and remain the core of the group’s appeal. Their dance style and song brevity mean that weaker moments fly by, too, leaving nobody bored for long. Not every track lands and the repetitive nature of their genre exposes dull songs painfully, but when they get it right, Caravan Palace absolutely shine. I had been warned that as a live act, this Parisian electro-swing act did little to build on their album releases, but I’m extremely pleased to find these reports are largely false. To sum Caravan Palace up in two words is easy: high energy. A gig to get you moving: Caravan Palace return to Bristol
