View PostA treehouse retreat: elegance and luxury at the Chewton Glen
“It’s definitely a treehouse” Mr P squeaked at me last Friday! Since the opening in 2012, I have been lusting after a stay. The Chewton Glen has long been our favourite place to squirrel away near home for some quality RnR. But we have never stayed in the trees. Until now! I didn’t…
View PostTravel Linkup – favourite things
The Sound of Music is my all-time favourite film, still – as I reach my mid-thirties!! Imagine my delight when Kelly, Emma and Rebecca and their lovely co-host Frankie, The Mischievous Mayfairy, announced this month’s travel link-up was about our favourite things.

View PostUnwinding in New England – our itinerary
We are on the countdown to our holiday now! May rattled past and here we are just a few (long) working days from some unwind and chill out time! I am known by many as the ‘Anna-planna’ – I revel in planning anything (but HATE being left to divide up the bills at…
View Post#Take12Trips – the first 3 months!
Goodness knows where the time went, but here comes April and we’ve already had a weekend warm enough for shorts and tshirt (followed 2 days later by needing hat, scarf and gloves for my morning commute) – the last three months flew by and quite impressively (compared to last year) I have not been on a single plane…

The wonderful world of travel blogging works because it is a community – there is a lot of support from across the blogging network, many people have helped me on my little journey and already I find myself helping newer newbies that me! Clearly bloggers spend a lot of time reading other blogs…
