ROAD TRIPS IN THE UK YOU JUST HAVE TO EXPERIENCE

March 18, 2021 Molleigh Cook
Road trips in the UK you just have to experience

Few things are more romantisced in the travel space than ~The Road Trip ~. Rightly so in my opinion, for there is nothing I love more than being on the road. For the last five years we have been taking our campervan on some epic adventures, exploring the UK and beyond in our Volkswagen T4. We have seen some incredible sights and have built up a pretty impressive list of places we’ve fallen in love with along the way. I have put together a list of places you’d be foolish not to visit on your next road trip around the UK!

RENTING A VINTAGE CAMPERVAN WITH LOVE TO CAMPER

November 23, 2020 Molleigh Cook
Road trip with a vintage campervan

n early September, we found ourselves with a week off work and had (loosely) planned a camper trip. We knew we were off on a road trip, destination yet to be confirmed. We love our camper, our t4, but his spray paint job lasted longer than we anticipated and when the week off arrived, we were two campers minus a van.

Autumn cabin life in brecon beacons

Last autumn we were seeking a cosy weekend away. We wanted to enjoy our days outside admiring the changing season and our evenings snuggled up by the fire. We could think of nowhere better than the Brecon Beacons, especially as the area comes alive in the autumn. We stumbled across Medley Meadow online and booked our own safari tent stay.

A SUMMER ROAD TRIP THROUGH WALES, UNITED KINGDOM

August 31, 2020 Molleigh Cook
Explore the welsh coastline

As avid campers, we are not good at staying still. We love to seize the weekends for camping adventures and spend our evenings after work jumping in the van and heading out on a road trip. So when the world stopped during a pandemic, we found ourselves itching to be away more than ever. As the UK started to peel itself out of lockdown, we knew it was time to take to the road once more.

10 CHARMING TOWNS & CITIES TO VISIT IN CROATIA

July 27, 2020 Molleigh Cook
Travel to Croatia

We had dreamed about visiting the charming towns and cities of Croatia long before we actually got to visit. So when we finally booked the flights, we knew we wanted to see as many of the quaint towns as we possibly could whilst there. We visited more popular choices, such as Zadar and Split (two excellent choices if planning your own trip by the way), but we also discovered sleepier towns, oozing with charm but with fewer tourists. Here are just ten of our favourites.

Travel to Hvar, Croatia

During our Croatian road trip last September, we had just spent over a week running around the pretty cities of Istria, beautiful Zadar and the cobbled streets of Split when we found ourselves craving some chill time. We knew we wanted to visit one of the islands close to Split and after numerous recommendations, we jumped on a boat and headed to Hvar.

June 11, 2020 Molleigh Cook
the ultimate staycation, cornwall

Earlier this year we were lucky enough to be able to stay at Log Jam cabin, nestled away within Little Menherion. I had been watching the build of this gorgeous cabin for a couple of years after seeing an article about Little Menherion in The Rolling Home magazine. Knowing it had recently been completed, it was the first place I thought of when we found ourselves looking for a last minute getaway.

A DAY IN VENICE, ITALY | A PHOTO DIARY

June 9, 2020 Molleigh Cook
Travel to Venice, Italy

I wasn’t sure what to expect from Venice. I had once seen it described as half beauty half tourist trap and I wasn’t sure which side i would cling to. It’s true that this city is both. It’s magical and chaotic and I am so grateful to have seen it at least once in my life. We spent only a day in Venice and when I look back at my photos it seems like a faraway dream, which I guess is all part of the charm.
