As I may have already mentioned a couple of times, Chris and I recently got married and then headed off for a quick minimoon in the pretty Cornish village of Mousehole. I’ll put together some tips for exploring this beautiful corner of Cornwall soon, but first I want to share a peek at Chapel House Penzance, a stylish six-bedroom B&B where we spent the first night of our break before checking . . .
Hotel Danmark | Copenhagen
I have a bit of design-related travel news to start the week, as I've just discovered that Brochner Hotels, owner of long-time Copenhagen favourite Hotel SP34, is about to launch a brand-new base in the Danish capital. Called Hotel Danmark, it's due to open its doors to guests in April and, from the look of the press photos, it's going to be stunning. The interiors blend sleek Scandinavian . . .
A road trip through Liguria
Last autumn Chris and I embarked on a mammoth road trip through the Liguria region of northern Italy, reviewing hotels for my day job with i-escape. We flew into Pisa and followed the coast all the way round to the French border and back again, travelling more than 1000km over the course of a week.

Our base was Artist Residence . . .
Weeke Barton | Devon
Last week I shared some photos of Hotel Endsleigh, the first of two places which Chris and I stayed at during our recent escape to Devon. As promised, here’s a peek at the second: Weeke Barton, hidden above a wooded valley on the edge of brooding Dartmoor National Park. This beautiful B&B is an entirely different kettle of fish to Hotel Endsleigh. Yes, it’s set in another old building – . . .
Hotel Endsleigh | Devon
Sometimes, modern life becomes so hectic that you have to escape, even if only for a day or two. Last month Chris and I did just that, using a visit to our Devon wedding venue as an excuse for a sneaky midweek break at two very different places to stay. The base for our first night: Hotel Endsleigh. Hidden in private parkland on the banks of the River Tamar, with views out over a densely wooded . . .
