Dyrham Park – Chatsworth’s little sister
Despite being a Bath local since April, I must confess to a small but significant folly: delaying my first visit to Dyrham Park, a mere twenty-minute drive from the city. No matter the season or the weather, one can’t go wrong with 270-acres of landscaped parkland and Baroque architecture. A house of Baroque Ambition Dyrham Continue reading

Devon has always been on my list of places to visit, and last weekend finally brought the perfect opportunity to go, with the rare promise of sunshine from start to finish.

A weekend in Oxford
Oxford has always been one of my favourite cities. I was absolutely fascinated with it growing up and have had the great privilege of visiting both the city and the university more times than I can count, both for business and pleasure.

Hever Castle – a majestic day out

As soon as the weather hits over 23 degrees every Brit has one place on their mind – the beach.

St. John Bread and Wine – the closest thing to a British Bouchon
You know those times that you are so close to somewhere that you end up forgetting to visit it? The same happened to me with St. John’s – I work near Liverpool Street and despite a multitude of recommendations I would always get distracted by the stalls at Spitalfields Market to venture out that far, Continue reading

Medieval/Tudor Kings and Queens buried in Westminster Abbey
Visiting Westminster Abbey is a truly magical experience for a history lover. It’s incredible to think that the very foundations of this country can be geographically pinpointed to an area smaller than a football field. Not to mention that within it lie the graves of over 3,300 people, all who had an important role to Continue reading
