This film was made by an amateur filmmaker who was a farmer from Reighton, near Filey, North Yorkshire. The film features footage of a holiday in Wales, including scenic views of the countryside, as well as a trip to the Chester Zoo.
The film opens with a close up of the Chester Zoo Guidebook. There is footage of many of the animals in captivity, specifically the lions and bears. The filmmaker's family then make their way to the gardens at the zoo. There is a small lake, and the children feed the swans. This is followed by more footage of the many animals at the zoo.
There is a brief shot of illuminations followed by scenes of a coastline. The family make their way along the pier towards castle ruins. The girls pose for a picture near one of the stone walls. The trip moves onto the countryside where the family goes to look at small waterfalls and rolling hills. There is more footage of the coastline and surrounding countryside before some footage is taken from the car as they make their way along the winding country road. Later, the family visits a petting zoo where they feed many different types of birds. The film closes with a brief shot of the filmmaker's daughter going down a slide into a swimming pool.
