Keen traveller Tim Saunders is the former Business and Motoring Editor of the Bournemouth Daily Echo. His regular travel reviews appear in numerous newspapers, magazines and websites throughout the UK and beyond.

As daughters Harriett and Heidi are still small, Tim and wife Caroline are concentrating on holidaying in the UK for the time being and exploring parts of the country that have passed them by. There are some stunning locations in Great Britain from the New Forest, to the Isle of Wight, Cornwall and the Peak District to name but a few. And of course holidays don't have to be long breaks, they can simply be a day trip for instance, to a historic country house maintained by English Heritage or the National Trust.

During 2012 we were fortunate enough to holiday with Hoseasons at Gwel an Mor in Cornwall and with Brittany Ferries and Canvas Holidays at Domaine des Ormes in Dol de Bretagne, France. For 2013 we have some equally exciting holidays planned.

Over time it is hoped that this website will help its followers to plan their holidays and find places that might have escaped them, too.  

Enjoy your travels and, in the meantime, you might like to seek further inspiration from Travel, the excellent poem by Robert Louis Stevenson.
