It's Nice To Meet You

Hi, I’m Clare, your personal Travel Counsellor, based just outside Exeter in Devon.

I am an independent and impartial travel consultant with access to a vast, varied and competitive range of trusted suppliers. This means that I can plan your trip exactly as you would like it, with your requirements in mind - a bespoke holiday especially for you.

I can assist with any kind of travel, including, city breaks, family holidays, business travel, cruises, honeymoons, long haul destinations, golf holidays, as well as simple flights and UK breaks.

My aim is to go the extra mile and provide the best possible service to my clients, and take away all of the stress and hassle so that you can enjoy your trip.

My working hours are flexible and I am more than happy to chat in the evening or over the weekend about your plans and I remain contactable 24/7 whilst you are away.

Aside from being safe in the knowledge that your travel and experience arrangements have all been taken care of for you, you can also benefit from the peace of mind that your adventures will be covered by the financial protection that ATOL provides and the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust.

I have two main passions and drivers in my life. My family and travel. I have been fortunate enough to travel to some amazing destinations all over the world, both with my children and without. I cant wait to share my experience and expertise with you and work with you to plan your dream holiday.

I am super proud to have been nominated and shortlisted for New Travel Agent of The Year at The Travel Industry Awards by TTG this year. It’s an incredible honour to be recognised amongst my peers in the travel industry and I look forward to finding out the results on the 26 September 2024!

I can't thank Clare enough for all her help, expertise and advice when planning our holiday. She has taken all the stress out of what is normally a very stressful event. She's amazing and so helpful. I have already been telling my friends and colleagues about her. She's an absolute credit to Travel Counsellors. Thank you Clare
