Bibury Farm Barns ðŸ‡¬ðŸ‡§

September 25, 2020November 6, 2021Leave a comment

Having made the decision to not travel abroad this year, like many people we had to do a quick u-turn and book a staycation. We really couldn’t have done better than the Old Hay Barn at Bibury Farm Barns. This is one of 5 beautifully restored self-catering barns on a working farm a short walk … Continue reading Bibury Farm Barns ðŸ‡¬ðŸ‡§

Devon Summer 2020

August 23, 2020August 23, 20202 Comments

Travelling in 2020 is a bit different for everyone this year. We took the difficult decision to not to travel abroad considering this was how the pandemic spread in the first place. So Spain has been put on hold and we decided on Devon, in particular; Dartmouth, as we luckily have access to a holiday … Continue reading Devon Summer 2020

Beautiful Bordeaux 🇫🇷

January 26, 2020January 26, 2020Leave a comment

The minute I arrived in Bordeaux, I fell in love. It's so beautiful; a wonderful mix of old and new, small enough to walk to most places, it feels safe and everyone seemed friendly and welcoming. We were only here for a few days and stayed at the Hotel Particulier: The hotel had mixed reviews … Continue reading Beautiful Bordeaux 🇫🇷

The Dordogne 🇫🇷

December 8, 2019December 8, 20191 Comment

Continuing on from our beautiful stop at the Marqueyssac  Gardens we headed to our bed & breakfast just outside the medieval town of Sarlat-la-Canada. La Belle Plane is based in a former winery and is run by the lovely husband and wife team; Claude and Martine. They only have 4 rooms and offer bed and … Continue reading The Dordogne 🇫🇷

The Marqueyssac Gardens, Dordogne

November 28, 20192 Comments

The first thing we did when we drove from the Lot-et-Garonne into the Dordogne was to stop (for quite a few hours) at the most magical garden; the Marqueyssac Gardens in Vezac, just south of Sarlat. I knew from having seen photos, that it was going to be  special but wow, it is such a … Continue reading The Marqueyssac Gardens, Dordogne

Exploring Seville

June 23, 2019June 23, 2019Leave a comment

Seville is perfect for a long weekend away. We loved the Alcazar (see my previous posts on Seville) but even if you don't get there, it's a great city for just wandering around, stopping for Spanish coffees in little squares and eating copious amounts of tapas. It's so beautiful and I would feel quite safe … Continue reading Exploring Seville

Plaza de Espana, Seville

May 30, 2019Leave a comment

The Plaza de Espana in Seville was built in 1928 for the Ibero-American Exposition the following year. For some reason I thought this was going to be much larger and linked to other buildings when in fact it is a solitary crescent in a park. It was built to showcase Spanish architecture and craftsmanship: It is … Continue reading Plaza de Espana, Seville

Mollie’s Motel & Diner, Oxfordshire

February 24, 2019February 24, 2019Leave a comment

It's about time someone revived the roadside cafe in the UK but I never would have thought it would be done by Soho House.Transforming an old service station into an American diner and Motel is such a fun concept and at £50 a room (£75 for a 4 person bunk room) what's not to love? … Continue reading Mollie’s Motel & Diner, Oxfordshire

Villa Pedra, Portugal

October 23, 20181 Comment

The second place we stayed in Portugal was a few hours drive North of Lisbon and about half an hour's drive from the University town of Coimbra. We arrived quite late in the day having attempted and sadly failed to go and see the fairytale palace at Sintra. Visiting Sintra had been at the top … Continue reading Villa Pedra, Portugal

Lisbon, Portugal

October 6, 2018October 6, 2018Leave a comment

Wow, where is the year going? I can't believe how behind I am on my blog posts, so please bear with me. I really liked Lisbon. Yes, it's hilly (trainers are definitely a must) and a bit rough around the edges but to be honest that's why I liked it. It feels European with a … Continue reading Lisbon, Portugal
