Just before the New Year I popped into the very unique No.15 Hotel on Bath's famous Great Pulteney Street for a quick spa day/facial. As a side note, if you're just here for a treatment do check out the rest of the hotel and all its quirky features. There really is nothing else like it … Continue reading No15 Great Pulteney Street, Bath 🇬🇧
A girls getaway is always a good plan and back to the South of France we went for a couple of nights of indulgence. Yes, I had been to the same area earlier in the year, but this time it was without kids in tow so it mostly involved relaxing and catching-up over great food and … Continue reading Luxury in the South of France 🇫🇷
Unsurprisingly, we loved Soho House Barcelona. Although we didn't stay (they don't have any family rooms) we popped in for a few hours every day whilst we were in Barcelona. (It's worth noting that you can only visit here if you're a Soho House member, with a member or are staying.) This really is such a … Continue reading Soho House Barcelona
Barcelona is such a great city to visit with its richness of culture and abundance of things to see and do.This was my second time in this diverse city and I still came away wanting more. Last time (sans children) we stayed at the beautiful Hotel Neri in the Gothic Quarter, which we visited again … Continue reading Beautiful Barcelona
I had never been North of Barcelona before and I was/still am stunned at how beautiful it is. The Costa Brava has had a bad reputation in the U.K. in the past so I was bowled over by it's richness in history, culture and natural beauty. We stayed just East of Girona in the stunning … Continue reading Catalonian Country Life

Like most of the little villages on the French Riviera this is a tourist hotspot, so try and visit off-season or early morning/early … Continue reading Eze and Cap Ferrat
I don't think it's much of a secret that one of my favourite places for a staycation is Babington House.The great thing about it is that it can be enjoyed as a family, a group of friends or as a couple. This time I stayed in the Lodge with my two boys. The Lodge is … Continue reading The Lodge @ Babington House
There's nothing like a chic, eclectic bolthole in the middle of a city and The Kensington Hotel is a great place to relax at the end of a busy day in London. This boutique hotel is a short walk from the Natural History Museum, Science Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum and a slightly longer but manageable … Continue reading Kensington Caper
The last leg of our Sri Lankan whirlwind tour was spent in Colombo at The Wallawwa. A mere 15 minutes from Colombo airport this is a great place to start or finish your stay. This is not however, your typical airport hotel. I did not hear or see a plane whilst I was there and this is … Continue reading The Wallawwa, Colombo
I have been extremely fortunate in my life to stay in some amazing places. Kahanda Kanda (KK) is one such place. This holiday really felt like a second honeymoon, partly because we were without the children but mostly because of the hotels we stayed in. KK is around 20 minutes drive from Galle in South Sri … Continue reading Kahanda Kanda, Sri Lanka
