We love scrolling through our feeds and seeing posts from both locals and visitors about the things they're enjoying around this fair city of ours. Whether it's a tasty lunch from St Nicholas Market, a scenic walk around the harbour or waving at the penguins in Bristol Zoo, it's always good to be reminded just how much there is to see and do around Bristol, regardless of your tastes and budget. Here are a few highlights from the past few weeks...

We really enjoyed this blog from Budget Traveller - mostly we can't believe how many places they managed to visit in such a short amount of time! An inspiring blog for those of you with more limited funds, this post packs in a good variety of activities off the beaten track too.

The Perfect 3-Day Weekend in Bristol
Another short break which managed to pack in a lot, as well as managing to capture a lot of the character of the city and its various unique districts, from the street art around North Street and Stokes Croft to the multitude of food businesses at Wapping Wharf.

A Road Trip Around Southwest England
We're not just about how great Bristol is, oh no, there's plenty more to see if you extend your visit by a few days (or weeks!). Lisa managed to cover a lot of ground in this trip, from the Dorset coast through to afternoon tea in Bath and a wander around Salisbury Cathedral - phew!
