Luxury Travel

 
Needless to say that one night in Paris is never enough, but one night is all that I had time for.
It started with a train journey, and I'm sure you've all sampled the delights of the Eurostar, but in case you've missed out during the last nine years, then I suggest you give it a try. It really is the only way to get to Paris - so very simple and easy, turn up at London St Pancras, settle yourself comfortably into your seat, and a meal and a few drinks later there you are in the centre of Paris.

Where to take a Ferrari FF to enjoy it at its best? Well it was designed as a touring car so a luxury Chateau near the Le Mans 24hrs racing track seemed like a really good idea. The French roads are ideal touring material and provide endless opportunities to really test out this wonderful feat of engineering. Perhaps starting with a really unique hotel in Paris and finishing up in a historic house in England would make this a perfect review of this fantastic Italian supercar.

 
It was Sunday and I was heading to the Emerald Isle to take in some art. Two of Ireland’s finest hotels, The Merrion in Dublin and County Laois’s Ballyfin, have come together to showcase their own collections of fine Irish art in a venture titled Inspiring Irish Art Weekend. I was hoping to be spoiled.

 
William Shakespeare called England “this other Eden...this precious stone set in the silver sea”. It is certainly a country in which travelling can be every bit as enjoyable as arriving.

 
"While arriving is superb, so should the journey there be.."

1. Cornwall
Well deserving of the top spot, Cornwall boasts some of the warmest and sunniest weather in the UK. Stretches of beautiful coastline with fabulous beaches, and waves to attract the most daring of surfers. Make sure you explore the secluded coves dotting the shoreline, once used by smugglers to store their bounty, and no visit would be complete without trying a famous Cornish pasty.
