This time last week, Stew and I enjoyed a little date night in the city, spending a night at Point A Hotels in Liverpool Street. Point A Hotels are a series of budget hotels dotted all over London, and now expanding further afield, with them just opening one in Edinburgh. They’re very well priced, with…
If you follow me on Instagram you probably saw that I was in Lisbon last weekend with Katy. We enjoyed 3 days in the city. It was both of our first visits to Lisbon, in fact, our first visit to Portugal in general. We were excited to explore Lisbon after receiving plenty of recommendations from…
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen that I spent a lovely weekend in Amsterdam with friends a couple of weeks ago. This was my second visit to The Netherlands, both having been to Amsterdam. But the first time I visited, was almost ten years ago, whilst Interrailing around Europe with some…
In December, I travelled to Edinburgh with the girls for a weekend away. This was my second time in Edinburgh, having originally published this post in 2017, when Stew and I spent two weeks travelling around Scotland. I wanted to update the post with fresh photography that depicted a much sunnier Edinburgh this time around….
On Friday, I had the pleasure of staying at AMBA Hotel Charing Cross. I love a staycation, as it always feels like such a treat to stay in a hotel, in the city you live. AMBA was no exception to this. We were gifted an executive king room, which included the biggest bed we’ve ever…
As my birthday was quite a big one this year (the dreaded 30), Stew and I decided to get away for the week. We chose to spend four nights in the Peak District, staying in a barn conversion in the heart of the Peaks for the first couple of nights, before traveling further north to…
Earlier this month we were invited to the South of France, to enjoy a long weekend in the Pyrenees Mountains, at Ax 3 Domaines. Having never been skiing or snowboarding before (or visited a snow resort before!), we were a little nervous, but super excited. It’s one of those opportunities we couldn’t pass up! Borrowing…

Our trip was in partnership with Jet2.com – an inexpensive UK airline, offering flights, hotels and holiday packages to a range of destinations in Europe, plus Turkey and New York. What makes…
Last summer I was lucky enough to spend 5 days in Northern Italy, visiting Bologna, Modena and Florence. Italy has always been a favourite of mine, having first visited 7 years ago, whilst backpacking through Europe with friends. Back then, we ticked off Venice, Rome and Florence and had the most incredible time. I love…
Last month, Stew and I arranged a last minute trip to Munich, flying out of London on a Friday afternoon and returning late on a Sunday evening. Having just 48 hours in the city, meant we needed to be savvy with our time – ticking off all the sights that we wanted to see and…
Sometimes you don’t need to travel far to enjoy a break. A little staycation, in your home city, is sometimes all that’s needed for you to relax and take a break for a day or two. That’s exactly what I did last week in London. I stayed at Sanderson one Thursday evening and had the…
