It’s pure joy for me to go down memory lane and revisit the pretty village of Cookham, located in Berkshire on the River Thames. You can find it between the towns of Maidenhead and Marlow and it is so lovely to walk around. It also has, for a relatively small place, got a lot of…

This pretty Georgian market town is a small district of Winchester, in Hampshire. I came across this when I took the Watercress Line (more on that later) as part of a day trip and bucket list item. I found the town so charming, that I brought my sister back with me to show her it.…

I am taking you to Somerset now! I was actually surprised to learn that Frome is less than an hour from where I live. I must confess, I had high expectations about this town. I read so many great things and on an impromptu trip, me and my partner ended up visiting. First impressions as…

I really enjoyed writing about Marlborough; although I have visited many times, it’s often a fleeting but purposeful visit. So it was nice to write about it from a tourist point of view, connecting the dots of the various things I have seen and passed by. It’s by far one of the prettier market towns…

I would, if I could afford to, live here in a second. There’s something so refined and quintessentially English about this area. These two villages, separated by the River Thames, meaning one falls under Oxfordshire (Goring) and the other under West Berkshire (Streatley) are just idyllic. Lying in a valley, surrounded by countryside that is…

Found by total chance as part of an impromptu Cornwall/Devon roadtrip, I have to say Padstow is really quite lovely! Friends had recommended it in the past but it was always just a little too far out of the way from what I was doing. I’m so glad I got the chance to visit; but…

This city is fresh in my mind after having spent a day there just recently. I’ve visited Oxford many times over the years. It’s a place that strikes you from the moment you get there. The buildings are grand and strong and beautiful and there’s a story for each one it feels. I will try…

They say that Burford is one of the most picturesque medieval towns in England and I don’t think they are wrong! As you drive in to this beautiful town, the Cotswold stone is all around you, with the most gorgeous houses and buildings to take in. It’s situated on a hill and as you descend…

Calling all those who are spiritually, archaeologically and historically interested to this beautiful (best enjoyed on a sunday day – in my opinion) Wiltshire village where you can see the Avebury Henge stone formations. It’s recognised as a World Heritage Site, set in beautiful Wiltshire countryside and it really is a lovely day out. I’ve…
