Thank you for visiting my website. I was born and raised in Oxfordshire and live with my husband and two children in Didcot.
Having worked in Travel for over twenty years I have gained great experience and knowledge from the industry. I started my career as a modern apprentice, learning all about retail travel, from there I moved on to work in business travel and now I am a Travel Counsellor.
I personally feel that holidays should be wonderful experiences, whether a City Break or a World Cruise, alone, or spent with loved ones, meeting new friends, exploring, relaxing and storing treasured memories of happy times. I have personally travelled from Barbados to the Balearics, initially child free, but now with my husband and two children on many family trips to the Mediterranean. Because of this personal experience and with my knowledge of the Travel industry I know what I want from my holiday and plan it accordingly. If you are anything like me you spend the time between holidays planning your next adventure whilst revelling in the memories of your previous trip. I would therefore invite you to let me create your perfect memories.....
Working for Travel Counsellors gives me the flexibility to research, plan and book your holiday. I believe holidays should be tailored to the needs of the individual and whatever your requirements I will do everything to accommodate your wishes. I am always available to offer the best practical advice and service and will do my utmost to ensure your travel arrangements are perfect for you. Whether your journey and destinations are for an individual or a group, be assured of my complete support and attention to detail.
No matter how small or large your planned trip is, close to home or far away, please feel free to contact me for any help or advice I can give. I am here, to make that special break special.
Thank you,

Thanks so much for organising Stewart Island. Remarkable place accommodation in the lodge was superb. The Island is a gem and so worth seeing. Saw penguins swimming in the harbour and climbing up rocks for the night Saw all the big 5 Albatross up close and flying close. Most of the Islands' unique native birds in their natural habitat. Sadly not the kiwi. But it was fun trying. Though we heard them resonating through the township in the early morning. Fab experience. Also loved the Singapore stop over. All been good so far. Presently in the 'Shed and breakfast'. Lieing in this mad but comfortable home made bed listening to bird song. And sheep bleating and seeing a sunny day beginning. This is the life.

OMG – it superseded all of our expectations! It was certainly a holiday of a life time. Thanks so much for all your help with the planning and organising. No one wanted to come home and the only thing we agreed we all missed was vegetables! There was nothing to fault. The room was excellent, the service excellent and the Compass Club was a real treat with its own check in and private dining area, the pool was a god send. Everything that we booked - Captain Jacks, the Inventions lunch which was phenomenal, the photo-pass was such a great addition too. Thank you for all the time you spent with us booking this ideal trip of a lifetime.

Becca books all of our holidays, regardless of whether they are big expensive ones if small weekends away. The reason for this is simple, she is the best! I don’t have to think or worry about anything. From the idea being first suggested through to providing completed luggage labels for our bags and fun packs to keep our children entertained, she does it all! I was really pleasantly suprised to find out that this can all be done around my schedule in my home and actually isn’t any more expensive than visiting my local travel agents shop. I would never go back to booking myself, as she is by far the best discovery that we have made in the last two years, I would liken her to google for holidays! She understands us and what we want/like and you can’t put a price on a personalised service like hers (which doesn’t actually cost you anything!) I would recommend her to everyone.

We would just love to say what a holiday you organised for our family in August. Everything was what you said and better. From every little detail from start to finish. Dreams did come true. The boys absolutely loved the little autograph books you gave them. The magic bands were such a great bit of kit and suggesting the Disney App just made everything possible, I think we managed to go on 14 rides first day!! Got some great photos and memories that will last forever. Kids cannot stop talking about it and have said they want to go back in 3 years!

Thank you for a fabulous holiday . From the minute you arranged our booking I felt confident it would be a great holiday.
You checked every detail and it all followed through from the help at the airport with my mobility scooter which I actually drive to the entrance of the plane.
Then being fast tracked everywhere and being picked up at the airport by a minivan which I could once again drive up a ramp into the vehicle.
The apartment was fabulous with a pool right outside the door and a minute away was a huge pool with access for me so for the first time in four years I could swim
. It was the best holiday ever superb company, great food and I joined in on everything
I’m surprised the hotel is only 3 stars.
Thank you once again and all I can say is I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you, you don’t just book a holiday you personally look after your clients
. So now it’s just to get on and book next years holiday.
Same plac, same time and I even know the room number I’d like. Thank you

We want to say a massive thank you for all your excellent service and advice for our trip to Lapland.
We had a fabulous time, kids were so excited and thoroughly enjoyed it. Seeing Father Christmas was just lovely, the kids were in awe of him and their faces were just magical.
The hotel was great, catching the gondola into town was special and we all enjoyed doing that, it is such a pretty place, the views were amazing from the hotel.
The mini tries of the activities were enough for our kids, it's all they wanted, they were more than happy to play in all the snow the rest of the time.
Oddly we never considered that it would be dark for most of the time, not sure why, was really beautiful none the less.
We even tried skiing for the first time, we all loved it and plan that to be our next holiday.
