LUCY Mecklenburgh and Ryan Thomas have given fans a glimpse of their rustic Suffolk staycation with baby Roman.
The former TOWIE star, 29 and Corrie star, 36, enjoyed a short break at a dreamy countryside retreat.
Lucy took to social media to share their holiday snaps with her 1.7 million followers.
The family soaked up the last of the sun as they celebrated Lucy’s mum 60th birthday.
The pair showed off the stunning views of the countryside and photos of their luxury accommodation.
Lucy shared a snap of her cosy bedroom complete with wooden beam ceilings, a huge sung bed and rustic interiors in shades of greens and red.
The reality star also gave fans a sneak peek of her lavish bathroom with a sunken bathtub to take advantage of a relaxing soak.
The mum-of-one showed off her spacious kitchen fitted with a large island perfect of big family gatherings and state-of-the-art appliances.
The family seemed in good spirits as they dined outdoors for a celebratory meal as the booze kept flowing.
Lucy looked sensational in a long floral baby blue dress completing her look with a pair of large gold earrings and scraping her hair back into a sleek ponytail.
She shared an adorable snap of her mum planting a kiss on her grandson's cheek, she wrote: “Happy 60th Mama Meck! Best nanny in the world x”
The star was also joined by her sister Lydia who looked equally stylish in a navy blue floral dress and a pair of cross-over heeled sandals.
Lucy recently stripped off to a bikini to show off her post-baby body and revealed how she lost the weight.
The Towie star says she's lost four stone of baby weight just six months after giving birth to her son.
Lucy told fans there's "no quick fix" for getting back into shape after pregnancy.
And the fitness fanatic admits that after giving birth her plan to get back to her exercise regime after just six weeks of recovery soon went out the window.
She told her fans on Instagram: "Roman’s 6 months old and to be honest I had this image in my head of being back to regular exercise and healthy eating in 6 weeks after my all clear from the doctor."
Instead she scoffed biscuits and napped and focused on looking after her baby for the first three months.
She continued: "Let’s just say it wasn’t quite like that. Biscuits & coffee for breakfast, lunch & dinner some days!
"If I got 1 hour to myself I would nap not do burpees haha."
Lucy's fiance Ryan made sure she ate "at least one balanced meal a day piled high with veggies" while she concentrated on Roman.
She explained: "I tried to fight it and attempted exercise but I just had no energy & wasn’t ready to workout yet.
"So decided to 100% focus on looking after Roman, feeding him & getting those essential power naps. I wanted absolutely no pressure to ‘bounce back!’"
Then after three months of rest and recuperation Lucy was ready to hit the gym
She said: "I started doing @resultswithbump stretches and short workouts around 2-3x a week & daily walks with the pram which during lockdown kept me sane.
"My advice to new mamas is every journey is unique like every body & baby is unique.
