Take a break from the “new-normal” and discover a right royal retreat near Windsor. You know you’re in for a treat when you turn into the gravel drive and approach the distinctive façade of Great Fosters, once a hunting lodge used by Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth I and now a four-star pile of […]

Seeking a staycation? Why not enjoy a warm, Windsor welcome?

September 25, 2020 by Jenny McGee 1 Comment

View of Windsor lower ward

  Less than an hour from London, Windsor offers all you need (plus a castle) for the perfect staycation. You’ll be surprised by Windsor.  You think you know it: familiar due to its royal linkage and recent weddings; a castle you’ve seen so often on TV you could draw it in your sleep. But when […]

October 23, 2018 by Nick Devonald 4 Comments

Gliffaes Country House Hotel - view

Trees, trout and a tandem make for the perfect short stay: Once called the ‘’glittering jewel of the Vale‘’, Crickhowell is indeed a lovely little place. But the real gem of the Usk Valley is Gliffaes Country House Hotel, a few miles north of the town, set just above the river in acres of beautiful […]

Mayflower Heritage in Dartmouth

July 5, 2018 by Jenny McGee 15 Comments

Plaque commemorating Pilgrim Fathers Dartmouth

The Mayflower and Speedwell in Dartmouth Although the annual Thanksgiving Dinner marks the survival of the early European settlers in New England, the less remarked upon, but nonetheless remarkable story, is of the initial obstacles they encountered even before setting sail across the perilous Atlantic Ocean. This is set to change with a series of […]

Discovering Dartmouth

July 1, 2018 by Jenny McGee 12 Comments

Dartmouth harbour at twilight

Dartmouth – Heaven on Earth in Devon “Ruby’s going to Heaven for her holiday” announced my young daughter, not registering my look of shocked concern.  Further probing clarified that rather than departing to a celestial paradise, Ruby (our trusty motor) was hitting the highway and heading to Devon, a destination which, as I recently discovered […]

Why You Should Take a Short Break at The Shangri-La Doha Qatar

January 10, 2018 by Simon 9 Comments

Qatar Doha Hamad Airport Teddy Bear

Ultra Luxury Short Break at the Shangri-La Doha Doha, the capital of Qatar, is known as a stopping point for many long-haul flights, especially those to Australia, but not many think of Doha as a short break destination in itself. So when I got the chance to stop over in Doha for a weekend I […]

A weekend in Stratford-upon-Avon

December 15, 2017 by Lucy Foxell 5 Comments

Hall Croft - Stratford

Shakespeare’s England – Stratford-upon-Avon: The Warwickshire town of Stratford-upon-Avon must be one of the best places in the UK for a weekend break. I was there to find out more about Shakespeare’s England – explore Shakespeare’s birthplace, visit the renowned Royal Shakespeare Company and take in a play at The Swan Theatre.  All this whilst […]

Prague – A Short Break to a City with a Long History

December 2, 2017 by Fiona Maclean 20 Comments

Prague View from Vrtba Gardens

Short Break in Prague: My first brief encounter with Prague just gave me an appetite to explore more of the City so I was more than happy to have the chance to spend another night there. Travelling to Prague from within the Czech Republic deserves a special mention.  We’d been visiting Pardubice and our itinerary had […]

Pardubice Town Square

Two Legends of Pardubice – and why you should visit! RyanAir has just opened a new route direct from London Stansted to Pardubice so if you are planning to visit the Czech Republic it is now very easy to reach and still much cheaper than Prague both for hotels and food. While accommodation choices may […]
