Native Glasgow Hotel Review

3 weeks ago | boutiquehandbook.com | Katie Wilson

By Katie WilsonFirst there were hotels, then came Airbnbs, but a travel trend currently on the rise in the UK is ‘apart hotels’. A cross between a hotel and an apartment stay, you still enjoy the perks of a hotel such as serviced rooms and a reception – and in some cases, restaurants – but with home comforts like kitchens, lounges and dining areas.

Brennik House Review, Port Isaac, Cornwall

Nov 18, 2024 | boutiquehandbook.com | Katie Wilson

By Katie WilsonIf you haven’t heard of Port Isaac before, you’ve probably seen it on television. This really rather beautiful fishing village on the North Cornwall coast is where the real-life Fisherman’s Friends singing group are from. If you visit in summer, you might hear them singing some of their sea shanties from the harbour. It’s also where Doc Martin, starring Martin Clunes, was filmed and you can visit his ‘house’ on Rosscarrock Hill.
Leydi Restaurant Review, London

Nov 17, 2024 | boutiquehandbook.com | Katie Wilson

By Katie WilsonThere are always new restaurants opening in London, but Leydi is one of the most talked about – and most aesthetically pleasing. Set in the new Hyde hotel across the road from the Old Bailey, it’s within walking distance of sights like St Paul’s Cathedral, the Tate Modern, Somerset House and Covent Garden. But with a separate entrance on Holborn Viaduct, Leydi has its own boho vibe away from the hotel.
Aqua Sana Sherwood Forest Review

Nov 15, 2024 | boutiquehandbook.com | Katie Wilson

By Katie WilsonSet amongst the pines of the world-famous Sherwood Forest is where you’ll find Aqua Sana spa. With high-end facilities and treatments at affordable prices, Aqua Sana at Center Parcs is one of our go-to spa days in the UK. Other locations include Cumbria, Suffolk, Bedfordshire and Wiltshire, but we love the original Nottinghamshire Forest Spa, that’s also home to the UK’s first treetop sauna.

Best UK Hotels For Autumn

Oct 30, 2024 | boutiquehandbook.com | Katie Wilson

By Katie WilsonIs there a more beautiful season than autumn? As the leaves turn from crisp green to honeyed gold and deep shades of crimson, the nights might be getting darker – but that just makes the afternoon light more magical. You only get a small window in which to see the autumnal displays in all their glory, but be quick and you can still catch a glimpse. Preferably from a cosy hotel window or perhaps a bubbling freestanding bath.

Rothay Manor Hotel Review, Lake District

Jul 30, 2024 | boutiquehandbook.com | Katie Wilson

By Katie WilsonWhen it comes to the Lake District, Windermere can be overrun with tourists all year round, so opt for somewhere a bit quieter that’s still close to the action. Ambleside is a pretty market town on the northern end of England’s largest lake that is well worth a visit. With shops, pubs, restaurants and surprisingly good transport links – you can get around on the Lake District bus for just £2 – it’s an ideal base.
