About us…
We started this travel blog back in 2015, as a way of documenting our travels with our family of four children, who we loved taking on adventurous holidays right from when they were babies up to fully-grown teenagers.
So a lot of our content focuses on family travel, with advice, reviews and inspiration for people wanting to take their children on holidays with a bit of adventure and outdoor activity.
Now the children are grown adults taking holidays of their own, we focus our travel blog content on luxury travel inspiration, reviews, ideas and advice for beautiful destinations around the world.
While this site started as a small personal project to log our own travel memories, it now gets tens of thousands of visits from travellers each month looking for advice and reviews to help them plan their own dream getaways.

Day Trip to Banana Island, Qatar Posted in category: Qatar - Banana Island is a luxury 5-star hotel and beach resort on a purpose-built island that sits about a 20-minute boat ride from the coast of Qatar. We were staying in a city-centre hotel in Qatar, so thought it’d be good to spend one day away from the city at a quieter, more relaxing beach venue - as we had tours of the city and the desert the following days that’d be a bit more intense. Banana Island offers a day pass to guests who aren’t… Read More
Elephant Hills, Thailand: Review Posted in category: Thailand - Elephant Hills is a jungle adventure camp in Khao Sok national park, Thailand. They call it a ‘soft’ adventure, which I think is a good description of the balance they’ve created of spending time in the beautiful natural environment of the Khao Sok jungle, but in a way that’s comfortable, suitable for families and people of all ages and abilities - and fully catered. Elephant Hills has a range of different packages depending on how many nights you stay - from 2 to 4 nights… Read More
P&O Arvia Caribbean Cruise Review: What to Expect on a Caribbean Cruise on P&O Arvia Posted in category: Caribbean - We booked a two-week Caribbean cruise with P&O on its newest ship Arvia, having been amazed the previous year by its almost identical sister ship Iona in the Norwegian Fjords. What we hoped for was to get away from the dreadful British winter weather and to see a part of the world we’d not visited before, in a way that would be a relaxed and convenient mode of seeing as much of the Caribbean as possible. P&O Arvia at sunset in the port of St… Read More
Snowdon Watkin Path Waterfalls – The Most Beautiful Spot in Snowdonia? Posted in category: Snowdonia - This has to be one of the most beautiful spots in the whole of Snowdonia and, maybe therefore, in the whole of the UK? There are numerous tracks up to the top of Snowdon, the Watkin Path being one which we find to be the most picturesque. Although we've walked to the top of Snowdon several times, we've never followed the Watkin Path all the way to the summit, largely because close to the top it gets extremely steep and dangerous - too much so… Read More
