Stonehenge is the stuff of legends. Open fields. Ancient architecture. The stories
I’ve been told about Druids, Merlin, and religious rites. And a ring of giant stones
which we’re told have been standing on the site for around 5,000 years. However, even
in the presence of such...

If you’re a bit of a literature geek like I am, then Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales is one
of the first things that comes to mind when thinking about the city of Canterbury in the
South East of England. Even though Chaucer wasn’t from Canterbury, the town seems to
have claimed him (or...

Castle Coch, with its turrets and its drawbridge, its dungeon and elaborately decorated
dining rooms, is pretty much everything I think a castle should be. Obviously John
Crichton-Stuart, the third Marquess of Bute, had similar opinions. Back in the 1870s, he
commissioned his...

Cardiff may be known for the rugby games at its Millennium Stadium, for its castles and
its strangely named Brains beer, but in recent times and in certain circles it has become
perhaps even more famous for being the place where the BBC films its popular TV series,
‘Doctor Who’. An...

A piece of advice: if you’re thinking of spending a weekend in Cardiff, it might pay to
check that there’s not a major international rugby game on first. Otherwise when it
comes to trying to find accommodation, even if you’re looking several weeks before you
travel, you might wonder...

The Taff Trail is a cycling and walking path that stretches from the Brecon Beacons to
Cardiff Bay, passing though various Welsh villages, parklands, and over and alongside the
River Taff. During a recent trip to Cardiff, we took the opportunity of a fine day (a
rare thing in the...

Located at 222 Shoreditch High Street in East London, the Drunken Monkey is ideal for a
night out of drinking and dim sums. At 8pm on a Saturday night, it seemed to be the
busiest venue in the neighbourhood, with music pumping and crowds sipping cocktails at the
bar. Without a...

Ever since I arrived in London, I’ve seen posters advertising films and plays at the
Barbican Centre. There’s a Barbican tube stop, so I knew vaguely where it was.
However, our first visit to the Centre, to see the film ‘Hairspray’ exceeded all my
expectations. I did print out a...

Since I’ve been travelling, most of my contact with home has been via phone or email.
Quick. Cheap. And perhaps, these days, also more reliable than snail mail. However, I
still think it’s nice to send a letter home now and then, or to receive something
through my door flap that...

There were four of us. The movie was 'Atonement'. I was looking through the London
cinema listings, looking for a not-too-late showing in a relatively central movie theatre,
when I came across the Gate Picturehouse. The Gate Picturehouse is located at 87
Notting Hill Gate, not...

Late January, Somerset, UK. As predicted, the weather was shocking for our long weekend
holiday in and around Bath. However, despite the wind and the rain outside, we were warm
and relaxed in our self-catered cottage at Greyfield Farm in High Littleton. There were
lots of little...

You could spend a day at Kew Gardens. At this time of year, the gates open at 9.30 in the
morning and close at 6.00pm. You could take a picnic, or eat at one of their restaurants,
and take your time to wander through the 300 acres of parkland, gardens, glasshouses and
palaces....

Old Sarum, just north of Salisbury, is a place full of history. The Romans lived there.
For a while, it was the address of William the Conqueror, and the first Salisbury
Cathedral. Today, however, there’s little left at Old Sarum, and a good deal of
imagination is needed to...

Stay in a backpackers’ hostel, and you often get what you pay for: crowded rooms,
showers that don’t have hot water, no security and a level of cleanliness which is
similar to the average student flat. This, however, wasn’t the case at the YHA in
Wellington City, New Zealand. The...

Victoria Coach Station was our first port of call in London. We arrived there at the end
of a long day: we’d caught the bus from Paris to Calais, where we went through customs
and got interrogated about out UK intentions, then caught a ferry to Dover, then got back
on the bus, which...
