Now, I delight in sharing this expertise with my clients, ensuring you enjoy journeys that feel completely personal, stress-free and truly extraordinary.

At home by the sea in Sutton Poyntz, Dorset, I’m a proud mum to two wonderful boys and our two cats. I pour this same warmth, responsibility and attention to detail into designing your perfect trip: from luxury adventures and cultural immersions to wellness escapes, romantic honeymoons, exciting sporting tours or tranquil countryside retreats.

My customer stories

Sent by J H

Travel Counsellor Kate Palframan was brilliant from the moment we consulted her. We wouldn’t travel with anyone else She was a pleasure to work with and was always available and happy to answer my totally ridiculous questions at silly times. Kate made the whole process stress free and found the best deals. We will definitely be using her again to plan our 50th anniversary trip. We would never hesitate to recommend Kate or Travel Counsellors, nothing is too much trouble; the knowledge and up to date information they can draw on is vast, this makes a huge difference. I have nothing negative to say. Thank you for all your hard work you do, and the joy you bring. Kate you are truly amazing JH (Trust Pilot)

Wonderful Safari Experience. Really great itinerary put together by the wonderful Kate. We had the most memorable experience on safari in Botswana. All the lodges were top class, and away from civilisation so great animal viewing experience as well. Kate kept her eagle eye on where we were the whole trip and was there to help , without being intrusive. Travel Counsellors and particularly Kate highly recommended.

Katie is just the best! Always listening to my needs and wants, trying to adapt the holiday to what would suit us as a family with her wealth of knowledge and experience. Can’t recommend her highly enough. Thankyou

First time using Travel Counsellor, while I love doing my holiday research it can be quite stressful to make the right decision at times and good and bad reviews for the same product can be confusing. So it was really good to get the help from a professional and while they may not know your destination themselves?They have a wide network of people who do so the advice is invaluable. And it’s easy to use, much more personal than a travel agent. So far brilliant service.

Kate has answered any questions I’ve had. She knows her stuff not that I’ve been on the holiday yet but I’d use her again Instead of a standard travel agent!

Katie has been super helpful and professional organising flights, hotels, transfers, visa and airport parking for 2 people from my company travelling to 2 different destinations. The schedule was constantly changing and Katie dealt with this in a professional manner and nothing was any problem for her. I would love to use Katie to support my business for future trips. Many thanks Katie! Steve
