Mallorca : One To Avoid…

30/07/2019 Written by Helen
Our view of the bins, Sorry, pool...

It’s hard to imagine that there could really be anywhere to avoid on Mallorca. We’d discounted Magaluf, as unfortunately we’re no longer in our early twenties, and so, when booking places to stay, we were pretty confident that every place we chose, would be a winner. When we travel we do our homework. We read […]

Petit Sant Miquel, Mallorca

07/07/2019 Written by Helen

After spending time on the western side of Mallorca, we decided to explore the eastern side of the island and found a gem of a hotel, called Petit Sant Miquel in the very pretty and very traditional village of Calonge. Renovated and opened in August 2018 by a Mallorcan couple, it is the epitome of […]

Lluna Aqua Hotel, Sóller, Mallorca

15/06/2019 Written by Helen

By sheer coincidence, the second hotel we booked on our recent trip to Mallorca – the Lluna Aqua Hotel in Sóller – just turned out to be the sister hotel of the Brondo Architect Hotel where we stayed in Palma. We had no idea that they were connected but both just exuded real style for […]

Ca’n Llimona, Soller, Mallorca

As pretty as a picture...Ca'n Llimona, Soller

This restaurant is probably known, and frequented by, all of our friends who’ve ever been to Sóller, but just in case you, like us, didn’t know about it, here’s the low-down on Ca’n Llimona. Tucked away down a side street called Carrer de la Victoria, just off the main drag, Carrer de sa Lluna, it […]

Brondo Architect Hotel, Palma

Over the last few years, we’ve been very lucky to be able to pack in a huge amount of travel – as well as actually move abroad, relocating from Manchester to Istria, in northern Croatia. We’ve spent the last couple of years renovating a stone house and exploring our new environment. But, one place has […]

Mercado Merced

On our last trip to Malaga, we were delighted that we had the time to spend visiting the foodie delight that is Mercado Merced. The website offers the following information : No visit to Malaga is complete without a visit to the Atarazanas market.  The market is more commonly known to Malagueños as the ‘Mercado […]

Malaga

02/07/2016 Written by Helen

Described as “modern contemporary fully furnished apartments right in the heart of the historical Center of Málaga” on the website, Liborio Apartments are perfect for a short stay in this vibrant Andalucian city. Located right in the middle of the historic centre, you couldn’t be better placed for exploring, eating and drinking. Although on a […]

Tarifa, Spain

Tarifa, Spain

Tarifa is a small town in the province of Cádiz, Andalusia, on the southernmost coast of Spain, with over 10 km of sandy beaches. We looped down to Tarifa after a stay in Seville, on our way back to Nerja, taking in a very quick detour to Cádiz, a definite city to revisit. Tarifa is […]

A Tasty Take On Tapas

A Tasty Take On Tapas

“Traditional” tapas restaurants and bars are abundant in Malaga and we’ve yet to experience one other than very good. Value is always exceptional with most providing complimentary tasters if you’re just having a pit-stop, rather than a full-on tapas session. There is one however, that we do find ourselves returning to, and that is La […]

Hotel Casa 1800

Hotel Casa 1800

This hotel has been on my radar for some time. When we stayed in Seville, I was searching for accommodation and the Casa 1800 kept coming up in searches. We stayed elsewhere in Seville but I made a decision that the next time we visited Granada or Seville, we’d stay at 1800. (The hotels are […]

The Andalucian Pods

We can just never resist a trip to Los Caracoles, whenever we are in the Nerja/Frigiliana area – the “Snail” hotel with pod-like rooms and suites is just super-cute and this time we had amazing weather. In the past we have stayed on a Friday or a Saturday evening and have been able to dine […]

Sagrada Familia

Sagrada Familia

Barcelona is one of our favourite city break destinations. Not only because it’s easily accessible from Manchester but also because it’s that lovely, rare combination of a city with a beach. And, what a beach! Spruced up beyond recognition for the 1992 Olympics (as with most of the port area), Barceloneta Beach is now a […]
