I've been going to Italy every other summer with my husband's family since 2013, so this was my fourth time. It's grown to be a tradition but this time it included Georgie. Like we usually do we flew from Gatwick to Rome as there are only flights once a week from the airport closest to…

Cotswolds – May 2019
The Cotswolds is our favourite UK break destination. It's such a beautiful part of the country and only about two hours for us from Surrey so it's the perfect place to go for a few days. Pack the car up with everything you need, which is a lot with a 10 month old, and off…
Greece – April 2019
After hearing people rave about the Ikos Resorts we thought we better suss it out...and it certainly didn’t disappoint. Ikos have four resorts in Greece and one opening next year in Marbella, Spain. We booked Ikos Dassia which is the third newest resort, opening May 2018 in Corfu. Ikos Resorts are award-winning luxury all-inclusive hotels…
Barcelona – March 2019
I am so sorry this has taken (a month) to post! Work and being a mum has got in the way! So...I received so many messages about traveling with a baby especially travelling solo so I hope I can share advice and tips here. I flew out from Gatwick on my own with Georgie which…
Cotswolds – November 2018
Those of you that know me personally will know that we love going away, whether it is a long weekend in the UK or a holiday abroad. When booking hotels one of the main factors is the interiors, I love getting inspiration in this way. We celebrated our first wedding anniversary last November at the…
South of France – August 2018
So many of you asked questions about travelling abroad with a young baby, so I promised to write a blog post, and of course share more about the holiday and accommodation too, so here we go... Our first holiday as a family of three! We um-ed and argh-ed about it as Georgie was so young,…
Cornwall – May 2018
Our last trip just the two of us! I used to visit Cornwall as a child, my aunty had a house on the south coast in St Mawes and I was dying to go back. Having seen so many photos of wonderful places in north Cornwall on Instagram, that's where we decided we would go.…
Paris – April 2018
Paris in the Spring time, just wow. The best time to visit! The warmer weather, lighter evenings and the blossom, oh the huge amounts of pink and white blossom against the blue skies. The weekend we were in Paris there was an end of April heatwave and all three days saw temperatures of 28-30 degrees.…
Dubai – February 2018
Dubai, one of our favourite holiday destinations. It’s not too far away and it is guaranteed weather all year round. Depending on the aircraft and whether you are going to or from London, the flight times vary from approx. 6.5 hours to 8 hours. We usually do an over night flight so we don't loose…
Cotswolds – January 2018
As it is my husband’s birthday in December we usually take a trip around this time. Last year we were in freezing cold but beautiful Venice, the year before hot Dubai, and the year before a warm Barcelona. This year I treated him to a staycation in the Cotswolds as neither of us had been…
