We love sharing Scotland's hidden gems and undiscovered corners! This spectacular place is Carrick Bay - a gloriously unspoiled beach in south west Scotland. 🏖️ Our Travel Specialist, Zoe, visited at low tide and captured a stunning sunset over the nearby Islands of Fleet.

Our client, Andrew, has just finished his 9th walk

Our client, Andrew, has just finished his 9th walking holiday with us! 🥾✨ This time, he explored the awe-inspiring Guernsey Coastal Path. This circular trail is a coastal dream, with soaring cliffs, sandy shores, and crystal-clear waters.

"Oh yes, we had an extremely enjoyable walking holiday and loved the islands, especially Herm and Sark which we visited twice and the east and south coasts of Guernsey. The weather, scenery, vegetation and bird life were spectacular. The hotels were a very good selection. This was my 9th walk with you and the first for my wife and she got hooked. Many thanks for everything." 💙

Is it just us, or is there an autumnal feeling creeping into the air? 🧡

We're huge advocates of wrapping up warm and embracing the cooler days. This is exactly what our Travel Specialist, Laura, did when she walked the Dales Way last October. Just look at the glorious Yorkshire landscape draped in orange and gold. 🍂

We're endlessly enchanted by the Highland's breathtaking natural beauty. 😍

The spectacular Ardessie Falls, pictured here, form a number of waterfalls in the river, Allt Airdeasaidh, which is located on the mountainside below An Teallach overlooking the shores of Little Loch Broom. 🏞️ A true hidden gem along the NC500 route! 🚗

Huge thanks to our adventurous Travel Specialist, Erin, for this stunning photo of this beautiful spot. 📸
