On our final morning at the Wood Norton, the weather took a turn for the better! The sun came out and boy were we eager to make the most of it. We spent less time than I would usually have like at breakfast (I’m a three breakfasts kinda guy) and went off in search of … Continue Reading
If you know anything about me by now, it’s that I have a deep and meaningful love of English castles. Thankfully, England has a fair few dotted all across the country that is incredible to see. Though, better still, there are a select few that you can actually stay in. This is where Studley Castle … Continue Reading
Seeing as we’d both skipped breakfast earlier in the day, due to a ridiculous lack of planning on both our parts, lunch time at the Fraggle Rock bar was most certainly a much anticipated affair! It took me all of two seconds to decide what to have – fish and chips all round and a … Continue Reading
For as long as I can remember, I’d always wanted to properly visit Yorkshire. In fact, now that I think about it, I actually almost ended up studying in York (twice!). I’ve been in Yorkshire very briefly but never actually gotten round to exploring it – not even the beautiful city of York which I … Continue Reading
Burgers well and truly demolished (and satisfyingly so) I figured it was time to pack in as much of the harbour festival as was left of it for the day before heading back to the hotel for a bit of pool time pre-dinner. Everyone was having such a glorious time and I was in high … Continue Reading
As it turns out, this ‘tool’ I’m about to tell you about is actually something we’d been doing for a while and didn’t even realise it till just recently. 😀 It’s saved us so much time and can actually make or break a trip (case in point: Rio where it just made for such a … Continue Reading
Nestled within the gorgeous English countryside, Wiltshire is a stunning county to explore whilst exploring the UK. Best of all, it’s within easy reach of the Roman city of Bath or even from London, too. So, to help you find the best places in Wiltshire to visit, I wanted to share some of our favourite … Continue Reading
The Hand Luggage Only way! 🙂 Recently, we got contacted about the potential of having a hassle-free day in London and like any true Londoner, I was initially sceptical. London is kinda synonymous with hassle. Yes, there are humongous upsides to being in London but I think it’s safe to say the average Londoner is … Continue Reading
The very next morning, we got up bright and early and set off on a trip to the island of Bryher (which, by the way, is right next to Tresco island). Okay, I’m being liberal with the truth here – I did not get up ‘bright and early’. I’m not a fan of waiting around … Continue Reading
London’s South Bank is a firm favourite with Londoners and tourists alike. It’s easily one of the best walks in London and has a pretty brilliant food market too. Many a fun afternoon in London can be spent perusing the South Bank and its delicious offerings. London’s South Bank food market was one on Friday … Continue Reading
London is one of the most exciting cities in the world – I know I could be accused of being biased here but I genuinely think know so! Having lived in London for a few years and hence gotten the opportunity to take in a whole range of experiences in London (on a wide range … Continue Reading
You know, one of the things I love about England is the diversity that we have. From the little coves on the Dorset Coast, gorgeous little hamlets and enough history to throw a stick at. All across the country, it’s filled to the brim with some of the best places to visit in England. Okay … Continue Reading
London is home and has been for quite some time now and so it’s safe to say that from time to time, as amazing as the city is, we sometimes take it for granted. The only time I actually seem to make an effort to see the city is when I have guests visiting, in which case, … Continue Reading
The Cotswolds is the epitome of quaint British beauty! The rolling hills and meadows always make for a welcome distraction from the manic-ness that is London and this is even more so when you get to celebrate your the union of your friends (this is my roundabout way of saying I went to the Cotswolds … Continue Reading
