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...

There’s a lot to like about Kipps Hostel.
First of all, the location. While it’s
not within the city walls, it’s only a short walk from the attractions in the town
centre and from Canterbury East Station. Arriving from London on a Friday night, we
managed to follow the directions...

I don’t go 10 pin bowling often. I tend to bowl gutter balls and break fingernails,
forget to let go of the ball and generally embarrass myself. However, there are times –
usually Christmas and birthday parties – where bowling is a necessity. One of those
occasions occurred last...

Bath is – perhaps unsurprisingly – known for its baths. There are the ancient ones
that you can find at the Roman Baths Museum, a World Heritage Site and Britain’s only
naturally occurring hot-spring. Those are fantastic, and if you’re interested in Roman
(or British) history, I...

I’d eaten Sally Lunn buns before. Even as I was growing up, in New Zealand, on the
other side of the world, they were a common sight in the local bakery. However, I
hadn’t ever stopped to think about the name of the sweet bread roll, hadn’t ever
considered the fact that Sally Lunn...

During Jane Austen’s times, The Pump Room, was a centre of social activity in Bath,
where the wealthy would meet and greet, and take the waters which had been drawn from a
nearby spa. Today, the clientele are more likely to be tourists like my husband and
I, stopping by for lunch...

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

My New Year’s resolutions: to see more of this country I find myself living in; to visit
more historic places, more museums and galleries; to explore and discover and learn. With
that in mind and with some time off work, we set out this afternoon to visit Windsor
Castle. According...

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....

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

Westminster Abbey, home of monks and burial place of monarchs, has been a significant
landmark for hundreds of years. These days, it’s both an active church and a popular
tourist attraction. The fact that services are still held here, means that the

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

When in we were in Cardiff, we had croissants, we had fish and chips, we had Italian wine
and icecream (not together). Riverside, the area around our hostel, seemed to have its
fair share of Asian restaurants. But we also wanted to try something local. The most

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

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...

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...

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...

I’ve always been a bit of a library geek. I moved to London last November, and I’ve
already joined two libraries over here – one near work, one near home, so I can get my
book fix on both weekdays and weekends. So I guess it wouldn’t come as a surprise to
anyone that knows me that...

According to their advertising materials, Wagamama restaurants are found around the world:
Boston, Auckland, Sydney, Dublin, Amsterdam and so on. But it was only when we arrived in

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...
