☀️ A brilliant day out at The Hut, Isle of Wight☀️🌊

I had the pleasure of joining a hosted day with key suppliers at The Hut recently, and what a memorable experience it was.

The day began in the best possible way, a private speedboat transfer across the Solent, followed by a fun tender and RIB ride into shore.

Once there, it was all about long lunches in the sunshine, incredible food, flowing rosé, and great company. 🍷✨ Days like these are such a lovely reminder of the relationships behind the scenes that help create truly special travel experiences for my clients.

One of the things I love sharing is that The Hut’s story doesn’t end on the Isle of Wight. If you’re a fan of The Hut, you may not know there’s also a little piece of it in the Caribbean, on beautiful Jumby Bay Island in Antigua. It brings that same relaxed beach club atmosphere, but in a stunning private island setting. 🇦🇬🌴

It’s another wonderful reason to think about Antigua, especially if you love that laid-back coastal dining style but want it wrapped up in a luxury Caribbean escape.

Always happy to chat through ideas if you’re dreaming of your next trip! 🇦🇬

Not complaining about this gorgeous UK sunshine at all… but there’s definitely something to be said for swapping it for a poolside lounger abroad, cocktail in hand, and absolutely nowhere to be 🍸☀️

After years of recommending Banff to my clients, I finally made the trip myself and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. 🇨🇦

I spent a week skiing the “Big 3” in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, with fresh powder, beautiful mountain scenery and three very different ski experiences to enjoy. Add in a fun, lively town with great restaurants and après-ski, and it really is a fantastic all-round destination. ⛷️

If Banff has been on your radar, I’ve shared all my personal highlights, tips and honest thoughts in my latest blog.
