Testimonials

Carol & Paul
Poland, the Baltic, Finland
My husband Paul and I would like to thank you, in particular Steve and Jenny for organizing our amazing holiday. All you had booked for us went smoothly. The hotels you picked were great, we were central everywhere we went. We enjoyed lovely food, and great entertainment and the footwear didn’t get worn down in the process. Because the hotels were always in the middle of everything. July was an awesome time to go. As we live in 45-degree heat most of the year round, 21 degrees was a lovely respite. Thanks again and I’m sure we’ll be using you again. Sara
If any of you are looking at booking a last-minute holiday, your dream vacation, holiday parks in the UK, theme parks or city breaks you need to add this lady! She operates a travel agency and will find you the best possible deal. Jennifer brings a whole new meaning to a personal touch … it’s like going to a chic boutique and having the personal champagne shopping experience!

🎃 Nearly September already?

Blink twice if you still think it’s March! 😅 Seriously, who hit fast-forward on 2024? We’re barely over our “New Year, New Me” resolutions, and now we’re staring down pumpkin spice season!

If anyone finds those missing months, kindly return them—we have some unfinished business with our summer reading list. 📚 But since time clearly has other plans, might as well embrace the chaos.

Grab a book, hopefully, mine, pour a drink, and let’s ride out the rest of 2024 in style! 🍂

😂With the social media experts saying some of my posts should be personal, here are my weekend plans. 🍻

😎 I'll be lounging in a hammock with "The Lighter Side Of Cruising by Steve Barker" – essentially a manual for extreme laziness. I’ll sip a few beers while my garden transforms into a jungle even Tarzan would avoid. Neighbours might think I’ve gone feral. If you need me, I’ll be perfecting the art of doing nothing and calling it ‘self-care’. Cheers to an epic weekend of non-adventures! 🌴📚🍻
