    5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER A COACH BREAK WITH NATIONAL HOLIDAYS + GIVEAWAY* | QUEENBEADY

    This is a sponsored post in collaboration with National Holidays.

    I know a lot of people would turn their nose up at a coach holiday, and I really don’t know why because I was brought up travelling on coaches from a very young age and have always had very fond memories spending summers with my grandparents travelling the UK and around Europe. Not many people my age would even dream of travelling on one, but here’s the deal they’re a lot more fun and independent than you think, not to mention much more environmentally friendly than other methods of travel (remember to do something for the planet!) So, here’s why you should consider a coach break with National Holidays next time you travel…

    ROOMZZZ CORN EXCHANGE, MANCHESTER: THE PERFECT POST-GIG APARTHOTEL* | QUEENBEADY

    This is a sponsored collaboration with Roomzzz.

    Manchester is incredibly popular for live gigs and huge concerts with global, worldwide stars visiting from afar. So many have graced the many stages that are dotted around one of my most favourite UK cities. Most recently we followed Arctic Monkey’s on their latest leg of shows in over 4 years and I’d been so excited to see them as soon as they announced their worldwide tour earlier this year. We managed to get hold of the highly coveted tickets for the Manchester Arena gigs one Friday night in September, still drowsy from our summer of festivals in Europe and still yearning for some musicality, we knew we wanted to make a weekend of it and stay over at the Roomzzz Corn Exchange, Manchester.

    Whoever said moving was easy? Christ almighty. Our recent house move that saw us buy our next home on from our first wasn’t without its hiccups. Whilst the chain was relatively straight forward, the sale and process was not. And, knowing what I know how I have compiled a list of things that everyone should take note of for when you buy your first or next house! Here’s my top tips for moving home…

    HOW TO LOOK AFTER YOUR HAIR WHEN TRAVELLING* | QUEENBEADY

    If there’s one thing blonde hair has taught me, is that it really needs looking after and whilst I do my best to make sure it looks & feels healthy, sometimes my routine can’t always accommodate long, luxurious hair treatments. It got me thinking about how to look after your hair when travelling! It’s not only your skin you have to look after but also your hair too. With travelling abroad a lot I find my locks needs much more nourishment because of the over exposure from the (glorious) UVA & UVB sunshine rays that we find when heading to far flung destinations. So, I have found some quick and easy ways with Percy & Reed to make sure my mane doesn’t become too sun damaged whilst I’m lying on a deckchair!

  • A REAL FOODIE EXPERIENCE & STAY AT THE GENERAL TARLETON, NORTH YORKSHIRE | QUEENBEADY

    A REAL FOODIE EXPERIENCE & STAY AT THE GENERAL TARLETON, NORTH YORKSHIRE | QUEENBEADY

    I’ve only ever heard good things about the General Tarleton (just on the outskirts of Knaresborough) so when I got the chance to visit I had high hopes already. Situated in the sleepy North Yorkshire village of Ferrensby, it’s easily accessible from the A1. It’s also not far from the pretty Market Town, Knaresborough and Spa Town of Harrogate, so it makes for a great base for exploring the area whilst enjoying a countryside retreat with superb food.
