Welcome, I’m Sally
Independent Travel Specialist | Bespoke Journeys | Personal Service
Based in beautiful Bradford on Avon, Wiltshire, I’m passionate about creating exceptional travel experiences that are as individual as the people taking them.
Travel has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been fortunate enough to explore an incredible variety of destinations across the world — from the beautiful countries and cities of Europe to the turquoise waters of the Caribbean and Maldives, to the vibrant cultures of Thailand, Bali and Mexico, the glamour of Dubai and the landscapes of Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the USA. I also spent a year working aboard a cruise ship, travelling around the globe, which gave me an even deeper appreciation for the joy, adventure and unforgettable memories that travel can bring.
Today, I use that experience, along with my personal knowledge and trusted industry connections, to create holidays that are beautifully considered from beginning to end.
Whether you’re dreaming of an indulgent escape, a tailor-made adventure, a luxury honeymoon, a memorable family holiday or a special celebration abroad, I take the time to understand exactly what you’re looking for. I’ll personally research the options, take care of the details and ensure your itinerary is thoughtfully designed around your wishes, style and budget.
For me, luxury isn’t simply about five-star hotels or beautiful destinations. It’s about having someone who knows you, understands what you value and takes care of everything, so you can simply look forward to your journey.
My previous experience in healthcare also means I have a particular understanding of accessibility and individual travel requirements, while being a mum of two has given me first-hand experience of travelling with children and creating holidays that work beautifully for the whole family.
And, importantly, you can book with complete confidence. All holidays booked through Travel Counsellors are financially protected, giving you that extra reassurance and peace of mind from the moment you book.
No enquiry is too big or too small, and I treat every trip as though I were arranging it for myself — with care, attention to detail and a genuine desire to make it perfect for you. I’m also happy to work around you, offering appointments by phone, email or in person, including evenings and weekends.
From the moment you share your travel dreams with me, my aim is to make the journey of planning your holiday just as enjoyable as the holiday itself.
Personal advice. Thoughtful planning. Exceptional travel experiences.
Because your time away should be more than just a holiday — it should be something truly unforgettable.

Two Centre fun in the Sun
Back in 2015 we had a really fun trip travelling around Florida as a family but as the children were only 7 and 9 at the time we didn't get to visit Universal in Orlando...….so last summer in 2019 we travelled to Orlando again to see and do the bits that we missed the first time around. None of us felt the need to revisit Disney this time so we focused on shopping, visiting NASA, Water parks and t

The stunning Belmond Venice Simplon Orient Express!
In April 2019 my husband and I took an early morning flight to Venice to celebrate his 50th birthday in style. First question - is it worth the extra expense to sit up front in business class for a short flight? Oh yes! For a special occasion definitely as we had champagne, a lovely cooked breakfast, a spare seat between us as standard and then some more champagne. A lovely relaxing start even for

The Maldives with children?!
During August 2017 I visited the Maldives with my husband and two children aged 10 and 12 and stayed at the family friendly Centara Grand resort. The Maldives with children I hear you ask? Yes, that's right, and what an amazing family trip that was! Our summer time is 'low season' in the Maldives and weather can be a bit unpredictable; however, we had wall to wall sunshine for the whole week an
