A weekend in the New Forest: The Master Builder’s
At the end to a busy week, we left behind the bustling streets and bright lights of London and headed towards endless fields, wild horses and sweet fresh air – that’s right, we were on our way to the beautiful New Forest. Last year, we enjoyed a relaxing stay at The Master Builder’s (of which you can read about here), we loved it so much that we decided to return and enjoy the delights of this hotel during a different season. There’s a plethora of insightful history filling the walls of this traditional hotel, and just opposite, on the banks of the River Beaulieu, is where some of the ships…

Portuguese Perfection at The Vintage Hotel & Spa, Lisbon
Set on a quaint, cobbled street in Lisbon, lies The Vintage Hotel & Spa – a beautifully modern, whilst perfectly traditional Portuguese hotel. Boasting a stunning Botanical rooftop bar, a delightful breakfast experience, various Portuguese touches throughout the hotel and wonderfully friendly staff – I would highly recommend this 5* hotel. Those who know me, know that I have a plant obsession, so on arrival at The Vintage, the decor instantly jumped out at me, this theme continues in all communal areas of the hotel with an outstanding display of plants decorating the roof top bar. We enjoyed a cocktail or two on the rooftop, listening to chilled tunes, hosted…

An amazing staycation in a Luxury Lodge with Mum & Sis: Burn Coastal Retreat
I was recently invited on a press trip to Bude to experience a stay in one of the Luxury Lodges at Burn Coastal Retreat. Delighted to be accompanied by my sister and mum, we all enjoyed the most beautiful, bright lodge called The Glass House. I’m sure the pictures will unveil the reason behind its name…. Due to the ebs and flows that life can often throw at us, it couldn’t have come at a better time for my family to enjoy a few days in such a peaceful location. The Glass House is beautifully furnished with calming fresh greys and whites with a wooden theme oozing coastal vibes. With…

A Wonderful Weekend in Cheltenham – enjoying Traditional English Luxury at No. 131
I surprised my partner Will, with a birthday weekend staycation. He knew nothing about the hotel, apart from it being in Cheltenham (just as well, because he was driving!). We were nearing it when – “OH WOW! NO.131 looks cool – we HAVE to go there whilst we are here” – little did he know this is where we were staying! FRIDAY EVENING On arrival, we were greeted with warm and attentive welcomes… (this level of hospitality continued throughout the duration of our stay; everyone really went the extra mile to provide such a wonderful service). Will described the atmosphere as a similar vibe to being a guest in someone’s…

The Soul of Ibiza: Hacienda Na Xamena
Location Located in the idyllically peaceful North of Ibiza within a national park, lies the delightful 5 * hotel – Hacienda Na Xamena (HNX). Settled on the edge of a cliff, you can only image the awe-inspiring views that accompany this luxurious hotel. As every room faces the sea, every guest has the pleasure of soaking up this mesmerising view. Rooms For the duration of our stay, we stayed in a Double Superior room which was incredibly special – from a jacuzzi bath overlooking the balcony and said view, to bright, fresh furnishings, a shower with a window out into the room and thus the view, to a snazzy coffee…
