  • THE ACADEMY HOTEL LONDON REVIEW – A SMALL LUXURY HOTEL OF THE WORLD | QUEENBEADY

    THE ACADEMY HOTEL LONDON REVIEW – A SMALL LUXURY HOTEL OF THE WORLD

    Our stay was provided to us on a complimentary basis in return for an honest review.

    The buzz of London can be quite intoxicating, and we were keen to experience the city again at a more leisurely pace this year after our whistle stop tour back in September 2018.  The endless amount of hotels can be quite hard to choose from! Ordinarily I do love my luxury hotels that have personality, that are quirky and stand out from the crowd, the Academy Hotel in London is exactly that and I’m so pleased we got to experience this unassuming hotel in Bloomsbury for a long weekend in the city. Here is my the Academy Hotel London review!

    MY OCTOBER TO-DO LIST BEFORE WE HEAD ON HOLIDAY

    Guys, I am nearly frazzled. My usual August / early September burn out didn’t arrive until a couple of weeks ago and I’m fast peddling away trying to make it to the end of October without completely overloading myself. There’s been so much riding on this holiday to Mexico, so much so that I’m still keeping my birkenstocks on for the foreseeable (yes I am aware it was only 3 degree’s this morning in Yorkshire!)

    This trip is the big one for my 30th (as you’ll know because I’ve not stopped harping on about it!) and I’ve spent pretty much the whole of summer watching everyone head off on gorgeous vacay’s whilst I sit crying in to my tub of Ben & Jerry’s wondering when on earth my time to fly will come around?

    After sitting down on last nights coaching call with Sophie, I decided that I needed to put a plan in to action, thus my October to-do list before we head on holiday has been born!

    MY FAVOURITE SPAS WITH GREAT FACILITIES

     This is a sponsored collaboration post – My favourite Spas with great facilities

    As much as I love a good facial or massage when I head to a spa, but trying to kill 4 hours of time can be quite hard if you’re spending an afternoon at a spa without a treatment. Yes, you could get sloshed in the jacuzzi but if you want a real experience you need to make sure that the spa itself has plenty of facilities. Here are my favourite spas with great facilities facilities.

    THINGS YOU CAN DO THIS AUTUMN TO LOOK AFTER YOURSELF

    This is a collaborative post with Villa Plus.

    Summer has finally come to an end, and we’ve rung in the Autumn Equinox today. Strictly Come Dancing has started, the clocks will soon be put back, and Christmas will follow not too shortly after that. For some of us, winter can become quite hard to cope with and can be little bit depressing. But there are advantages to Autumn (which I’m ready to get my teeth stuck in to: fire season, hot chocolates with whipped cream and marshmallows, bonfire night and halloween!) It’s a great chance to reflect on things, and spend some time with yourself. Let’s take a look at a few of the ways we might look after ourselves over the course of the season.

    LITTLE THINGS YOU CAN DO THAT SHOW YOUR GRANDPARENTS YOU CARE

    This is a collaborative post with Allied.

    Our grandparents will have meant so much to use during our lives, not least do I owe a lot to them because they helped bring me up with my mum when she was flying solo. There home was the first I ever had. They are the shoulder to cry on when our parents are being ‘unfair’, the perpetual babysitters and the ones whose wisdom and kindness helped shape us into the people we are today.

    As they get older, however, and lose a little of that energy they once had, it can be easy to drift away from them. By showing them that you still care, this will hopefully never be the case as you’ll be able to create a lasting and profound bond.

    Here, we’ll go through just a few quick and easy things you can do to keep your grandparents on your side and let them know you still care.
