Czech Republic farmstay accommodation
The most memorable part of our trip was most likely the scenery we loved the mountains and woodlands. The next was the food as Nick is no doubt an excellent chef and Dasha a specialist with deserts. (more)
From £29 per person per night
Provence cooking & walking holiday
We had a simply terrific time and have already recommended the house to numerous friends, particularly those people who are seasoned travellers and are tired of the regular offerings (more)
From €470 - €590 excluding flights
Andalucia B&B farmhouse, Sierra de Grazalema
I loved this little farm and the people who run the B&B. It was in a lovely spot by a stream...I loved my time in the area of the B&B. (more)
From €49 - €58 per double room per night
Sea kayaking holiday in Scotland
My holiday was in the Outer Hebrides – a wonderful, awe inspiring and educational 7 days. The scenery was magnificent but one the most memorable experience for me was sharing it with five others that were just as impressed with both the location and history of the area as I was.  (more)
From £545 excluding flights
Cycling tour in Catalonia for food lovers, Spain
Biking in the beautiful country of Spain with my husband and good friends was the most memorable part. It was a wonderful experience, great trails, food and memories to last a lifetime. I am planning my next trip now! (more)
From €799 excluding flights
Water sports activity holiday in Croatia
Practically all of it however the most exciting part was when we went kayaking on higher waterfalls. We give it a high rate since this was the best holiday we have had, kids loved it as well and we consider re doing it, maybe in a different season. (more)
From €560 - €740 excluding flights
Cross country skiing in Lapland
The cross country ski in the Lapland forests, with nothing but ancient trees and animal tracks around us was the most memorable part. (more)
From SKr8520 excluding flights
Northern Lights quest holiday in Finland
5*- loved every minute - the snowmobiling, dog sledging, reindeer farm as well as seeing the Northern Lights. Thought the holiday was extremely well organised. Small groups so lots of individual attention. Have already recommended it to many friends. (more)
From £1645 including UK flights
Alpujarra holiday cottages, Granada
The first sight of the view from the balcony was amazing - and it just carried on being great. Walking up the peak was also great - we saw ibex! Fabulous! Relaxing, interesting and inspiring. We want to come back and will recommend it to everyone we know! (more)
From €70 per room per night
Scotland holistic and wellbeing holidays
It was all good! The relaxation break offered us a variety of activities, as well as the opportunity to just be restful. The small size of the group meant it was possible to get to know the other guests quite well and there were many interesting conversations.  (more)
From £695 - £795 excluding flights
Wildlife sailing holiday in Scotland
Memorable for me for wonderful wildlife we really saw ( so often we have been disappointed, even in Amazon rain forest). We saw dolphins and seals and lots of beautiful sea birds, we fished and laid lobster pots. We caught a lobster, along with crab and star fish, and netted plankton which we examined under microscope.  (more)
From £578 excluding flights
Cote d Azur scuba diving holidays in France
Most memorable was diving in the warm, clear mediterranian waters with a friendly and professional guide. The driving company went out of their way to make sure we had a memorable trip. (more)
From £399 - £775 excluding flights
Self guided canoeing holiday in Ireland
As a family, the sense of teamwork was really noticeable... Occasionally we managed to stop the loud singing from our children and caught sight of kingfishers, herons, cormorants and all manner of wildlife... A fantastic family holiday – so glad we booked. (more)
From £134 - £302 excluding flights
Sardinia walking holiday, Italy
Despite having a mobility problem, I managed 3 out of 4 walks. They were amazing and Rudy was invaluable to give me the confidence to carry on even on some quite hard terrain. The hotel turned out to be experts in gluten free cooking and so the other perfect half was the ability to eat enough food to fuel the walking.  (more)
From £999 - £1099 including UK flights
Kayaking holiday in Montenegro, Lake Skadar
The most memorable was the great kayaking, birding, and hospitality of our hosts. It was one of the most adventurous holidays we have ever been on. The beauty is astounding. It was a grand adventure and would definitely recommend it to anyone interested.  (more)
From £515 - £660 excluding flights

The most memorable parts were the landscape, peace and flowers in the countryside. (more)
From £199 excluding flights
Self guided walking holiday in Andalucia, Spain
We have many fond memories from our short but action packed six day break in Andalucia, Spain. We couldn't have asked for a better base than this hotel, an impressive building, sympathetically modernised whilst still retaining its Spanish Farmhouse roots. (more)
From €300 - €360 excluding flights
Sintra Natural Park accommodation in Portugal
The most memorable parts were being able to catch public transport to most places with a toddler; the fantastic location of the guesthouse; and the great innkeepers & their fantastic hospitality. (more)

From €785 - €897 excluding flights
