Picture yourself lying on a sunbed, the sun is beating down and you can hear the waves crashing. You’ve got an icy tropical cocktail and a book by your side and there’s nowhere else you have to be. Sounds…
The Forest of Dean was a big part of my childhood. I grew up not far away in Ross-on-Wye and spent so many weekends in the Forest – walking the Sculpture Trail, cycling the old railway line, splashing around…
In a city like Salisbury where a walk through its streets is like a trip back through the centuries, it was only right that my hotel had historic credentials to match. So what could be more appropriate than Europe’s…
It’s an autumnal Sunday morning in France – couples sit on deckchairs in the sunshine drinking coffee while their kids run around, steam rises from an outdoor pool in front of a glass dome, a swan swims across the…

When I visit London it’s usually a whirlwind of meetings and catch ups, and wherever I stay is just a bed to pass out into. But on my last trip I took the opportunity to stay over on a…
I’m always raving about how much I love apartment rentals when I travel, but I will admit that although you gain in freedom you can lose a bit in luxury. There’s nothing particularly glamorous about making your own bed…
Although I do a lot of apartment stays, sometimes it’s nice to just check into a hotel and let someone else do everything for you. By the time I got to Copenhagen I was in serious need of relaxation,…
Back in 1996, the Devon city of Exeter became my new home when I went to study geography at Exeter University. It was just far enough away from home, and just big enough to have lots to do without…
![With its spectacular architecture, Prague isn’t known as the ‘City of a Hundred Spires’ for nothing, but it’s also got 30 bridges, castles, palaces, parks and gardens to explore – and not to mention Europe’s cheapest beer. But although Eastern Europe is known for its good value, Prague’s popularity has pushed prices up for visitors. So if this gorgeous city’s on your wishlist, my new post [link in bio] has all my top tips for saving money on sights, views, food, transport and more to make the most of Prague on a budget .

![#ad Canada's a country that really captured my heart – and my new post [link in bio] is an epic two-week road trip itinerary right across the heart of the country, travelling from Calgary to Toronto, from the prairies to the lakes.
