Do we sometimes overlook what is right on our doorstep?

Most of the holidays I arrange take my clients overseas, whether that is by plane, rail, ocean cruise or river cruise.

But travel does not always need to start at an airport.

There are some incredible places to discover across the UK too and I have realised I probably do not talk about them enough.

A luxury hotel for a special weekend, a great food escape, a few nights by the coast, a countryside retreat or simply somewhere completely different for a couple of days away.

When you come to me, I want you to think travel, not just overseas holidays or cruises.

Tell me what sort of experience you are looking for and I can recommend somewhere that fits you rather than simply sending you a list of hotels to choose from.

And I would love some inspiration from you too.

Where in the UK have you stayed that completely exceeded your expectations?

Share your recommendations below. You might just inspire someone elseโ€™s next trip.

And if a UK break is on your mind, drop me a message and let me find somewhere special for you.

It's a busy departure day today with multiple clients heading off to enjoy the sunshine in beautiful Lanzarote. โ˜€๏ธโœˆ๏ธ

I hope you have an amazing holiday and collect lots of memories.

Lanzarote is one of those destinations that really does have something for everyone. Whether it's the beaches of Playa Blanca, the buzz of Puerto del Carmen, the charm of Costa Teguise or discovering the island's incredible volcanic landscapes, there's always a favourite.

๐ŸŒด Which part of Lanzarote is your favourite?

I've just booked a client on a beautiful river cruise for next April and there really is something special about this way of travelling.

Picture yourself enjoying incredible food paired with regional wines, relaxing by the heated pool on the Sun Deck and watching Europe drift by from your stateroom, complete with both a French balcony and a private outside balcony.

I currently have an exclusive private sale making this level of luxury more accessible than you may have thought.

With a range of sailings through the festive season to next year, including solo occupancy cabins, if you have ever considered luxury cruising get in contact with me today..

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น A TASTE OF TUSCANY... LITERALLY ๐Ÿท๐Ÿ

Imagine spending four nights in a beautifully restored, 400-year-old palazzo hidden among the rolling hills of northern Tuscany.

Your hosts, Mirella and Francesco, welcome you with drinks and a tasting of local produce before introducing you to the flavours and traditions of their region.

Across two hands-on cooking classes, youโ€™ll pick herbs from the garden and learn to create authentic Italian dishes using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Think handmade ravioli, tagliatelle with ragรน, Tuscan soup, tiramisu and panna cotta, then sit down to enjoy your creations with wine selected by Francesco, a qualified sommelier.

Between classes, relax beside the swimming pool or explore the surrounding countryside.

The experience also includes a full-day visit to the UNESCO-listed Cinque Terre in neighbouring Liguria. Discover its five colourful coastal villages, visit two wineries, enjoy guided tastings and savour a light lunch of local produce. ๐Ÿฅ‚

๐Ÿท Four nights in a historic Tuscan palazzo
๐Ÿ Two four-hour cooking classes
๐Ÿฅ‚ Cooked dinners accompanied by wine
๐Ÿ‡ Two-winery Cinque Terre experience
๐ŸŠ Swimming pool and mountain views
๐Ÿ’ท From ยฃ887pp

This isnโ€™t simply somewhere to stay itโ€™s an opportunity to taste, learn and experience a side of Italy most visitors never discover.

Who would you take with you? Tag them below or message me for available dates.

*Price is based on two people sharing. Flights and travel to the accommodation are not included. Prices and availability are subject to confirmation.*

โ˜€๏ธ RHODES IN AUGUST 2027 - FROM ยฃ56pp A MONTH! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท

Imagine waking up beneath the Greek sunshine, spending the day beside the sparkling Aegean Sea and finishing with dinner at a welcoming local taverna.

Youโ€™ll stay at the family-run Hillside Studios & Apartments, tucked away in a peaceful spot on the edge of Faliraki. Relax beside the outdoor pool or head into the resort for its long sandy beach, restaurants, shops and lively atmosphere.

Rhodes offers so much more to discover too from the cobbled streets of its UNESCO listed Medieval Old Town to beautiful Lindos, traditional villages and secluded coves.

For todayโ€™s meeting with Havila Voyages who offer arguably the best Norwegian Fjord cruises, where better than Ripples, my favourite coffee house in Stockport!

We all know the difference locally sourced produce makes and the importance of zero emissions, so imagine cruising with no engine noise just the sound of the water around you before enjoying locally sourced food with zero food waste as it is recycled into fish food.

Combine that with meeting local communities and sailing closer to the coast than ever and you have the perfect combination.

If Norway is on your wish list, please get in touch with me, Jon - Iโ€™d love to help you discover the Norway that lies beyond the familiar sights.
