We're hoppin' off for Easter!

Tiernan Travel will be on an Easter break from 18th April and back in action on 22nd April.

Time for a cheeky bit of chocolate, a proper lie-in, and maybe a mini egg or ten.

Catch you on the other side—refreshed, recharged, and ready to jet-set!

Hello hello! Meet new tiernan family member ❤️

Hi there! I’m Kiril, born and raised (for the first 10 years of my life) in Riga, Latvia—a city that’s like a treasure chest of cobblestone streets, medieval charm, and enough Art Nouveau buildings to make an architect weep with joy. Riga may be small, but it’s big on personality, with a food scene that will have you questioning why you’ve never tried black balsam or grey peas before.

At the age of 10, I swapped the Baltic winds for the emerald shores of Ireland. Moving here felt like finding the missing puzzle piece in life. Ireland’s rolling green hills, friendly banter, and a culture where strangers greet you like long-lost friends made me feel instantly at home. Plus, the weather gives you an excuse to always carry a cup of tea!I followed my creative calling and earned a degree in Illustration from the National College of Art and Design. For me, art isn’t just a passion—it’s my everyday job and my happy place. There’s nothing more rewarding than bringing ideas to life with a sketchpad and a bit of imagination.When I’m not creating, you’ll find me at Killarney Beach—a slice of heaven on Ireland’s coast. Its golden sands, dramatic dunes, and the perfect mix of tranquility and wild Atlantic energy make it my ultimate escape. Whether it’s for inspiration or simply to watch the waves crash, this spot is pure magic.Oh, and I love to skateboard!

Imagine a night where poetry, haggis, whisky, and kilts collide in the most Scottish celebration of all time! 🎉✨ Welcome to Burns Night—a tribute to Scotland’s favourite bard, Robert Burns.

Think: bagpipes wailing, toasts flowing, and a feast so hearty it could make a Highland cow jealous. 🍖🥔

The Address to a Haggis is a theatrical ode to a pudding, so legendary it deserves its own fan club. And don’t forget ceilidh dancing—where your two left feet are no match for the infectious Scottish spirit! 🕺💃

It’s tradition, it’s chaos, and it’s pure magic. So don your tartan and embrace the charm, laughter, and whisky-fueled merriment. Slàinte mhath! 🥃

We are delighted to share that our wonderful Zach and Gillian have officially kicked off the Christmas season at Waddesdon Manor!

Welcome to Edinburgh, the city where love is as palpable as the mist (and just as unpredictable)!

Picture this: you and your special someone wandering down the Royal Mile, trying to convince yourselves that the castle is just a really fancy Airbnb. 🤔

Meanwhile, the ghosts of Scottish lore are probably rolling their eyes at your romance.

Grab a cup of hot chocolate (the kind that warms your heart, not just your hands) and cuddle up in a cozy café, where the only thing sweeter than your drink is the look your partner gives you when you accidentally spill it. ☕😅

And don’t miss the view from Arthur’s Seat—because nothing says “I love you” like a hike that makes you sweat and a sunset that takes your breath away!

So, pack your bags, bring your partner, and let Edinburgh weave its spell on you.

It’s the only city where even the cobblestones seem to sigh, “Ah, young love!” 😍

Another glorious “out of office” adventure! Today’s lineup: a charming stroll through Arlington Row, savoring fish and chips at The Swan in Bibury (crispy perfection!), a quick jaunt to Stow-on-the-Wold and Broadway, and wrapping it all up with a cozy stop at Daylesford Farm for a farm-fresh finale. Just another day “working remotely!”

Had an absolute blast playing tour guide for and kicking off her British initiation the right way—introducing her to a real, authentic sausage roll from ! Because nothing says “Welcome to Britain” like flaky pastry and savoury sausage bliss! ❤️

It's a national coffee week here in the UK and below are our recommendations where to get caffinated when travelling:

1. Attendant (London)
Once a Victorian public toilet, now a chic coffee haven! Sip your flat white in an old urinal turned coffee bar. Quirky history, incredible brews.

2. The Steamie (Glasgow)
A cozy Glasgow gem where the coffee's as rich as the local banter. Perfect for a rainy day pick-me-up. Sip, chat, repeat!

3. The Moon Under Water (Manchester)
By day, a hip café; by night, a bookish hangout for coffee lovers and literary souls. Brew meets brainpower.

4. Colonna & Smalls (Bath)
For the coffee connoisseur. Colonna & Smalls serves espresso with the precision of a science experiment—crafted for flavor nerds.

5. Baltic Bakehouse (Liverpool)
Coffee and fresh sourdough so good, you'll want to leave with a loaf...or two! A bakery-café combo that feeds your soul.

6. Kaffeine (London)
Australian vibes in the heart of London. With artisanal coffee and impeccable design, it's a down-under delight without the long flight!

Which one would you visit first? ☕

We took a little trip to Ettington Park Hotel, just 10 minutes away from us—can you believe it?! A true hidden gem on our doorstep!

🌳 From strolling through the stunning grounds to soaking up the architecture (and maybe imagining a few ghosts 👻), it was the perfect escape.

Sometimes, the best adventures are closer than you think!

You all must have noticed that we love including Blenheim palace on our itineraries. You will ask, our clients are not that much into Winston Churchill, and that is okay because ...Turns out Blenheim Palace has more screen time than some actors! 🎬 From James Bond to Harry Potter, this stunning estate has hosted over 50 films. If only these walls could talk... they'd probably be asking for royalties. 👑

You all know the Cotswolds is my happy place, so I’m excited to share my top 5 favourite hotels with you! Trust me, these spots are pure countryside magic.

1️⃣ The Lygon Arms - A 600-year-old coaching inn that has hosted kings and celebs. Because who doesn't want to feel like royalty in the middle of charming Chipping Campden?

2️⃣ Thyme - More than just a hotel, it's a village within a village. Cozy cottages, a farm-to-fork restaurant, and endless countryside walks. It's where luxury meets nature

3️⃣ Barnsley House - Think lush gardens and chic rooms straight out of a fairy tale. Oh, and did we mention the private cinema and heavenly spa? Pure bliss

4️⃣ The Fish Hotel - Quirky, playful, and surrounded by nature. Stay in a treehouse or a stylish lodge and enjoy dinner by a crackling fire. Perfect for that off-the-grid feeling (with Wi-Fi, of course)

5️⃣ Cowley Manor - A contemporary country house hotel with an epic spa and 55 acres of rolling hills. If you're after Insta-worthy vibes and a little R&R, this one’s for you!

Ready to pack your bags yet? 🧳💛
