September really is the perfect time to start dreaming about next year’s escape: the kids are back at school, the summer rush is over and you’ve got time to plan something truly special rather than a last‑minute “I need a holiday” panic booking.

By starting now, you can:

Secure the very best rooms and suites in the most sought‑after hotels before they sell out
Take your time to explore ideas like twin‑centre stays, long‑haul adventures or a relaxing cruise
Build in those little extras that make a big difference: private transfers, must‑do excursions, spa days, w**e tastings and unique local experiences
Spread the cost and budget comfortably, so your holiday feels exciting rather than stressful
Early planning means your next holiday is not just a week in the sun, but a carefully designed experience you’ll talk about for years: sunrise swims, dinners with a view, hidden gems you would never have found on your own and a smooth, stress‑free journey from start to finish.

If you would like to start shaping ideas now, I can help you explore destinations and styles that fit your wish‑list, so when departure day comes you know every detail has been thought of.

🌍 Thinking of a once‑in‑a‑lifetime long‑haul trip?
🚢 Curious about a cruise or a twin‑centre adventure?
🏝 Or just want a perfectly‑picked beach hideaway to truly unwind?

Let’s start planning your 2027 holiday while availability is wide open and the best options are still on the table.

✨ Make next year’s holiday one to remember, not one you booked on impulse.

Set sail on an unforgettable 11-night Hurtigruten journey along Norway’s original coastal route, from historic Bergen all the way to the Arctic town of Kirkenes and back. Sail past dramatic fjords, colourful fishing villages, Arctic islands and snow-dusted peaks, with memorable stops in Ålesund, Trondheim, Bodø, the Lofoten Islands, Tromsø, Honningsvåg, the North Cape and more.

Step aboard MS Kong Harald and enjoy cosy comfort in a Polar Inside cabin, with full-board dining included, so you can focus on those incredible views and maybe even the Northern Lights dancing overhead 💚

Good morning and happy Tuesday! 🌞 I hope you are all keeping well.

I wanted to share why it really does matter who you book your holiday with, and what it means when you choose to book with me as your Travel Counsellor.

With over 40 years in the travel industry, I have seen many changes in destinations, trends and, most importantly, how holidays are built and protected. More and more people now want something a little more bespoke than a simple one‑destination trip, and that is exactly where I come in. ✈️

Imagine:
🇬🇷 A Greek island‑hopping holiday visiting different islands, with flight, transfers and hotels all joined up.
🇹🇭 A Thailand itinerary that is not just a beach stay, but also a city stop, culture, nature and maybe even another country.
🛳️ A cruise where you fly out a couple of days before to explore, enjoy your cruise, then stay on in somewhere like Hong Kong afterwards, with excursions arranged in advance.

I can tailor all of this into one bespoke package that fits you. 💫

When you book with me you also have:
🛡️ Full financial protection for your holiday
✅ Our own ATOL licence behind your booking
👩‍💼 One dedicated point of contact from start to finish
📲 Check‑in assistance and all the details taken care of for you
⏰ 24‑hour duty support in the unlikely event that something does go wrong while you are away

The main thing is peace of mind: you always know there is someone at the end of the phone who knows you and your booking personally. You speak to me, you book with me, and I look after everything so you can simply relax and enjoy your holiday. 🌴

If you are thinking about your next trip, whether it is a simple short break or a multi‑centre adventure, I would love to help you plan it. 💌

That is why I care so much about creating holidays that feel special, personal and unforgettable. If you’ve been waiting for “the right time” to book, this is your gentle nudge.

Message me and let’s start planning your next memory‑making escape ✈️🌈

That is why I am so passionate about what I do: helping you book those special holidays, big or small, that become the unforgettable chapters in your family story 💛

If you’ve been waiting for “the right time” to plan a getaway, this is your sign.
