Sweet Shangri-La, Paris

May 13, 2022 by Sarah-Jayne Smith

With its black and gold stripes, translucent wings and furry body, there is no mistaking the bee.

Sensational Hotel Savoy, Florence

February 10, 2022 by Sarah-Jayne Smith

Resplendent, La Residencia -A Belmond Hotel, Mallorca

As the train pulled away from station, little did seventeen-year-old Axl Ball know that his life and ours, would change forever. Engrossed in the freedom of the swinging sixties, rucksack slung over his shoulder, he had just hopped on a train in Barcelona, or perhaps it was Berlin? We can’t be sure. One thing we […]

Charismatic Culloden

Ducks bring joy to the soul, don’t they? And if there is one thing, we all need, now more than ever, it’s a joyful lift.

Polished Palma. Boutique Hotel Sant Jaume

November 4, 2021 by Sarah-Jayne Smith

The cobbles that were once prominent are now smooth. Edges rounded by feet, hooves, and wheels over centuries.   Welcome to the old town of Palma, or ‘El Casco Antiguo’.

November 4, 2021 by Sarah-Jayne Smith

The vision of Lycra stretched tight as a drum over bulging biceps and lithe limbs appears to have a special place in the hearts of Mallorcans. You can’t escape them. The cyclists. Spokes whirl at a blistering speed, backs hunch over in a brace position, head down, eyes forward. Ambition and drive unparalleled. Sweat pools […]

Rocco Forte, Verdura Resort – Sicily

April 19, 2021 by Sarah-Jayne Smith

The first inkling that you are nearing the soul soothing sanctuary of Verdura Resort are the flags. Fluttering wildly in the south westerly wind, the colours catch the eye immediately, vibrant, regal, and alive on the beige canvas of the landscape.
