Castle Combe is a charming village located in the Cotswolds region of England, known for its picturesque beauty and historic architecture.

A stroll around the village will have you admiring the 14th-century houses, the ancient stone bridge and the quaint stream that runs through the center - truly something out of a fairytale!

Often voted “the prettiest village in England” and in close proximity to other beautiful destinations such as the city of Bath, Lacock and the rest of the Cotswolds - be sure to add Castle Combe to your travel list 🏰

A guide to visiting Pulpit Rock in Norway, one of my all time favourite viewpoints! ⬇️

Also known as Preikestolen or Prekestolen, Pulpit Rock is a steep cliff which rises 604 metres above Lysefjorden 🧗‍♀️

Length: around 2-3 hours each way, this is a ‘there and back’ hike that takes you up to the viewpoint. It’s not too challenging but can get steep in places.

How to get there: The trailhead to Pulpit Rock is located in the town of Tau, near Stavanger. We took the bus with Pulpit Rock Tours which have a few departures throughout the day, we took the last bus there in the evening and the first bus back the next morning.

What to bring: it does get cold at night so layer up! Make sure you’ve got plenty of water to last you (at least 2L per person). Keep your camping equipment as lightweight as possible to save on weight, we just brought the tent and sleeping bags.

Where to camp: if you climb up the rock face above Pulpit Rock itself you’ll find a quiet rocky area with amazing views over the fjords, we went up here to set up our tent and had dinner while waiting for the last of the other non-camping hikers to make their descent. We then went back down to the rock and had the whole thing to ourselves!

Happy hiking!

The island of Grenada had to have been my favourite stop on our trip around the Caribbean ✨

We went out on a boat for the day that we’d booked through @viatortravel to explore the underwater sculpture park and reefs around the island - what made this even better? The captain had 5 dogs who would roam around looking for pets before jumping in the sea with us to go for a swim to the nearest beach 🏝️

A day of absolute bliss in paradise, would love to go back to Grenada and explore more of the nature inland - rainforests, mountains and waterfalls yes please!

Do you agree? 👀🇫🇷

In all truth I absolutely looooved visiting Paris and can’t wait to go back!

My favourite things to do in a Paris included:
🏰 The whole of Montmartre
🖼️ All of the sculptures in the Louvre
🏛️ The views from the Arc de Triomphe at sunset
🚂 Catching glimpses of the Eiffel Tower from the metro
🏘️ Honestly, just wandering around and enjoying all the architecture!

Is Lago di Braies on your bucket list? 🧚‍♀️

Situated in the heart of the Dolomites region of Italy, Lago di Braies is like something straight out of a fairytale (or that one scene in the notebook 🚣‍♀️)

When you visit, make sure to get there early to have the whole place almost to yourself - and don’t forget to stop by the little hut by the boat rental to pick up a free postcard!

Do you know where you can find this fairytale location? 🧚‍♀️

Often referred to as “the prettiest village in England”, Castle Combe is set amongst the rolling hills of the Cotswolds and is the epitome of English countryside beauty 🏰

Shown here is The Manor House hotel, a place that looks incredible in every season (although I always have a soft spot for the autumn)

Wells, the hidden gem of the South West 💎

Despite its small size, Wells boasts a wealth of history, culture, and natural beauty that make it a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to the South West of England.

Here are just a few reasons why you should consider visiting Wells on your next trip:

🏡 Stunning Architecture - from a medieval cathedral to well preserved Georgian houses, Wells is a city rich in architectural history and beauty.

🏞️ Picturesque Landscapes - Surrounded by rolling hills and lush countryside, you can also easily access the nearby Mendip Hills.

🏰 Historical Landmarks - home to a number of important historical landmarks such as the Bishop’s Palace.

🍻 Quaint Shops and Pubs - you might even recognise some from Hot Fuzz!

If you read this far: in terms of population the smallest city in England is technically the City of London! But shhh… don’t tell Wells 🤫

These clips were filmed at the wonderful Iford manor, a place I visited for the first time last year and just know I’ll be back for years to come. It’s a glorious day trip from the city of Bath if you’re looking to step into the countryside (and feel like you’re in Tuscany!)
