You’ve heard of Split, Dubrovnik and Zadar… but what about Croatia’s lakes, waterfalls, islands and national parks?

The good news? Many of them are surprisingly easy to reach. Places like Plitvice Lakes National Park and Krka National Park make great day trips, while the islands range from lively hotspots to wonderfully quiet escapes.

Yes, some of the famous spots get busy in peak summer, but venture a little further, visit early, or travel outside July and August, and you’ll see a different side of Croatia.

Beyond the postcard cities, there’s a whole world of turquoise lakes, waterfalls, hidden coves and laid-back island villages waiting to be discovered.

Have you explored Croatia beyond Dubrovnik and Split?

This boutique hotel is postcard pretty and full of charm. Perfect for a relaxing break with amazing food and service. The location speaks for itself with its stunning views.

Why not combine a stay here with a stay in Croatia - perfect twins!

Summer is closer than you think…

Long, golden evenings, warm sea breezes, lazy pool days and that first sip of something chilled with a view you will never forget. Summer is when everything slows down just enough for you to really notice how good life feels.

If you are still “thinking about” a summer escape, this is your sign to turn daydreams into dates in the diary. The best rooms, most convenient flights and those extra‑special touches never hang around for long.
Whether you are picturing a chic Mediterranean beach hideaway, a family resort with something for everyone or a once‑in‑a‑lifetime adventure, I can shape a summer getaway that feels made for you.

Message me to start planning your summer escape now, before it slips away.

All aboard for a little luxury on the rails…

Let’s talk about five incredible train journeys where the journey really is the holiday. Think huge picture windows with wow‑factor views, cosy armchairs, white‑tablecloth dining and that soothing click‑clack of the tracks as you glide through some of the world’s most unforgettable landscapes.

From mountains and deserts to vineyards and coastlines, these luxury trains wrap panoramic views, beautiful interiors and gourmet dining into one dreamy, slow‑travel experience. It is a full sensory escape, and the perfect way to turn “getting there” into the main event.

Curious which journeys made my top five? Message me and I will talk you through them and help match you to the one that fits your travel wish list.

Slovenia is one of those “how is this not busier?” places: emerald lakes, storybook towns and mountains that look like a postcard, all still feeling surprisingly unspoilt.

For families, it is a dream: easy direct flights, short drives, friendly locals and so much outdoorsy fun. Think rowing out to the little church on Lake Bled, swimming and paddleboarding on Lake Bohinj, gentle family hikes with cable cars doing the hard work, summer toboggans, bike rides and picnic stops with mountain views.

It is great value too and really flexible: you can base yourselves by the lakes, add in a couple of nights in Ljubljana for ice creams and riverside strolls, or combine Slovenia with Italy, Austria or Croatia for a longer adventure.

Perfect for families who love fresh air, simple pleasures and a slightly quieter, more authentic feel to their holidays. Message me if Slovenia is tugging at your travel heartstrings and I will help you turn it into a tailor‑made family trip.
