    MY TRAVEL ROUND UP OF 2018 | QUEENBEADY

    TRAVEL ROUND UP OF 2018

    After packing up our bags, not to board a flight but to move home, a (teeny-teeny-teeny) part of me was kicking myself that I’d not indulged in as much travel as I’d have liked in 2018, it was purely down to the house move that we had to reign in any travelling on many, excessive holidays throughout the year. Instead we focussed on two, very extravagant trips abroad in the first half of the year before we bought the house, which I think has resulted in me feeling totally burnt out towards the back-end of this year. Once I sat down and listed out where we had travelled to and the fabulous press trips I’ve also been on around the UK I started to feel quite grateful that we’d be fortunate enough to fit what we did in and around our very stressful house move.

    A SHOWTIME LONDON WEEKEND ITINERARY WITH NATIONAL HOLIDAYS* | QUEENBEADY

    This is a sponsored post in collaboration with National Holidays.

    A 5am start is something that should never happen… unless you are going on holiday, that is! Lucky for us that’s exactly why our alarm was going off at that (ungodly) hour. But, nevertheless, I was excited to embark on a Showtime London Weekend Itinerary with National Holidays. Despite the early wake up call, once we arrived at the Coach Station, everything else was taken care of.

    5 “BEST OF BOTH” UK HOTELS WITH ACTION & RELAXATION | QUEENBEADY

    I don’t know about you, but when I travel I need to have a mixture of both down time and activity that will keep me occupied for a weekend or week-long break. My style of travel often tends to be about slow adventuring which means we can take the adventure side of things at a nice steady pace but with the added luxury of a spa or good pool or hot tub nearby.

    Here are 5 “best of both” UK Hotels with action & relaxation

  • CREATING A COSY CHRISTMAS WITH METHLEY ESTATE | QUEENBEADY

    CREATING A COSY CHRISTMAS WITH METHLEY ESTATE | QUEENBEADY

    With no luxury, log cabin retreat to look forward to and get me in the festive spirit this December I’ve been doing certain things so I can keep the “C” word well and truly alive at home this year. Now we are (just about) settled in to our new home I’ve been super excited to “deck the halls” for our first Christmas here. I was kindly invited down to Methley Estate at the beginning of this month to pick out a real Christmas tree for our new home, which seemed like the perfect thing to do to get me in the Christmas mood! I’ve been on a mission creating a cosy Christmas with Methley Estate and I have no intention of stopping anytime soon.

  • 5 PERFECT PRINTS FROM DESENIO FOR ALL TRAVEL LOVERS* | QUEENBEADY

    5 PERFECT PRINTS FROM DESENIO FOR ALL TRAVEL LOVERS* | QUEENBEADY

    This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Desenio.

    Ah, it’s Christmas time and the dreaded onslaught of deciding what to get someone for the big day is well and truly throwing some curveballs out there for you. It can be a tricky time when you can’t buy for the person who has everything or someone who won’t give you any clues about what they want. For someone like me who loves travel and enjoys nights away I can’t expect that everyone would want to send me to some far-flung destination like the Caribbean for a week of five-star all inclusive luxury or pay for me to head to a spa retreat in the foothills of Austria as a Christmas present.

    No.

    I’m very realistic and I recognise that there are other ways to treat someone who enjoys travel as much as I do. It doesn’t always have to be travel vouchers to spend a night at a fancy hotel or bottomless brunches in your favourite city, you can bring travel in to the home, so here I have 5 perfect prints from Desenio for all travel lovers!
