The Most Iconic Road Trips in the USA
26th March 2026
Jack Kerouac's On the Road, Steinbeck’s Travels with Charley, and the 1960s TV show Route 66. American roads have a reputation for a reason, and their depiction in movies, TV shows, and media only adds to it. They are as much a symbol of American culture as the American eagle, and for good reason. The roads are built for long drives, with highways that cut through deserts, mountains, coastlines, and small towns. The scale and diversity of the US road network are unparalleled. The country has one of the largest and most developed highway systems in the world. There is also a sense of freedom, of self-paced travel that a road trip in the USA offers.
Five of the World's Best Literary Destinations
23rd March 2026
'Getting lost in the pages of a book’ is an expression that resonates with many: books allow us to enter other worlds and other experiences - and the memories often linger far beyond the final chapter. So it’s unsurprising that the popularity of literary tourism has surged in recent years. Readers are no longer content to simply escape into a book: they want to step into the world of the author, or of the protagonists. Screen adaptations have, of course, been instrumental in this shift. Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings have both turned real destinations into places that fans seek out in an effort to immerse themselves into those fictional worlds. Social media has also played a part, with visual platforms such as TikTok and Instagram bringing literary landmarks, and aesthetically pleasing book shops and libraries into the palms of our hands - and inciting a yen to see them for ourselves. A desire for slower, more immersive travel is also a factor. Rather than ticking off a list of sights and landmarks, travellers now prefer to linger and get a genuine sense of place, or a feeling of connection with the places they visit. Some destinations heighten the experience for visitors - Dublin is just one example. They tap into their literary histories and arrange programmes of festivals, exhibitions and talks, giving travellers a focal point around which they can build the rest of their trip. So, if your muse has been awakened, here are some ideas to further inspire you...

Palma de Mallorca Off-Season Travel Guide | The Sybarite
20th February 2026
When you first mention Mallorca, tourists typically cite the island's 200+ stunning turquoise-water beaches and the wonderful Mediterranean climate which boasts more than 300 days of sunshine. However, there’s much more to the island than meets the eye. Warm weather aside, Mallorca is steeped in rich culture and an eclectic culinary scene - both of which are especially noticeable in the capital, Palma de Mallorca. Here, the accommodation is geared towards bespoke luxury, with 22 boutique hotels and an astonishing 97% of beds in the city belonging to five-star hotels. Visit in January and you will encounter vibrant festivals, such as the Sant Antoni Festival and the Sant Sebastià Festival. The weather is still at a respectable 15-16 degrees Celsius, and you won’t have to battle the tourist queues at cultural sites and restaurants.

Out On The Wily, Windy Moors
17th February 2026
News of Emerald Fennell’s racy adaptation of Emily Brontë’s 1847 classic, Wuthering Heights, seems to have had everyone gripped for months - and now it’s finally on our screens. Whatever your thoughts on the film, it’s rare that a production provides an opportunity for both set-jetting and literary tourism - but, as much as critics have raised eyebrows at Fennell’s various departures from the novel, one vital aspect has been retained: the wild Yorkshire moors that provide the story’s physical and emotional landscape.
POST Family Resort Austria: Luxury Family Escape | The...
10th February 2026
POST Family Resort is a four-star family neverland we could happily return to again and again. What many don’t realise is that the property carries over 400 years of history. Once a postal station — hence the name POST — the building changed hands in 1955 before eventually finding its true identity in 1985 as a small, family-run hotel with just 25 rooms. Today, after extensive renovations, POST has evolved beautifully for modern families who value comfort, thoughtfulness and quality, without losing its soul.
