A Little About Me
Travel isn't just my job, it's my passion. I love planning holidays for families, couples, and solo travellers. As a mum to Hector, and with my husband Simon, I understand the unique needs of family travel: keeping kids happy, active, and entertained while still leaving space for the grown-ups to relax (preferably with a glass of something nice and a beautiful view).

We also enjoy a romantic short break, and I’m always on the lookout for the perfect restaurant, a good bottle of red wine, or a luxurious spa. We’re big fans of motorsports like Formula 1 and British GT, and yes, I can plan a trip around that too!

If you want personal, experienced, and friendly service—get in touch. Your perfect holiday starts here.

City Break to Palma Majorca

City Break to Palma Majorca

My trip to Palma was perfect, three nights at the delightful Gran Melia Victoria. Palma is a great city and positioned right on the seafront/marina only 20 minutes from the airport. One side you have the cruise port and the other end you have old town and the Cathedral, walking the distance will take you 30 minutes along the promenade. Our hotel was over towards the cruise port, had the most

Family Holiday to the Gran Bahia Del Duque

Family Holiday to the Gran Bahia Del Duque

June is not the month to be travelling to the Canaries really as it’s a winter destination and can be very hot in summer. I went against all my thoughts and booked to stay for a week at the 5* Luxury Gran Bahia Del Duque. I got a great deal and the weather was great, a mixture of sunshine and overcast which was perfect for us a family. Very quiet though. Upon arrival we were greeted by lots of

Weekend at the Ritz Carlton Abama Tenerife

Weekend at the Ritz Carlton Abama Tenerife

Two weeks before Christmas I jetted off to the island of Tenerife for three nights. I have stayed at a lot of hotels in Tenerife but the Ritz Carlton Abama was the only one missing. We arrived after a quick flight on EasyJet which was very good and on time. The sun was shining, and the temperature was 24 degrees. A 25-minute journey and we reached our hotel. The entrance was grand, very clea

Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi

When the UK weather takes a turn for the worst, you immediately think hot, beach direct flights/short flights – Canaries! Well how about Abu Dhabi? It took 6.5 hours direct on Etihad in which was superb, the product on board is fantastic whether you travel in economy or business class. The staff was attentive and made us feel comfortable from check in to arriving. The entertainment system is ex

Gran Canaria Puerto Mogan

Gran Canaria Puerto Mogan

My family and I have just returned from Gran Canaria, I've been to many places on the island, but there was something very nice about Puerto Mogan. A small resort with back streets resembling a traditional Italian village, beautiful flowers, low rise white buildings all housing apartments, boutiques and small restaurants, there is a small beach and harbour which has about 50 boats docked.

Winter Ski

Winter Ski

Skiing is one of the most enjoyable sports I have ever done, not only do you have the challenge of mastering the sport, it's when you conquer the parallel ski, how to stop and turn around and go backwards without even knowing how you did that!! Honestly the satisfaction you get especially when you have skiied from the top of the mountain to the bottom and made it in one piece WITHOUT FALLING is un

Dubai “ A different world”

Dubai “ A different world”

To summarise my visits, I first travelled there in 2000 and have been back 11 times. Sheikh Zayed Road the Abu Dhabi – Dubai link was complete and many buildings were starting to take shape. Dubai was creating a skyline like no other and their vision to attract tourism was impressive. Almost unbelievable. There are so many parts to Dubai, Deira and Dubai Creek, Downtown Dubai, The Marina, Jumeira

Thailand - a country full of surprises

Thailand - a country full of surprises

Thailand is a country that always impresses, no matter how many times you visit. I started my journey in Bangkok, staying at the luxury Mandarin Oriental for a couple of nights. Positioned right on Chao Phraya river and not far from places of interest, it was perfect. My Superior River View Room was high, modern and comfortable and on a clear day the views were great. I spent a full day visitin

India - wow!

India - wow!

My journey started when I was told, “Great news - how do you fancy a trip to India, in six weeks?" Yes please! Fantastic - another destination to add to my portfolio. Fast forward six weeks, I arrived into Delhi, having just completed a 10 hour flight with British Airways in Club World. 6’6 flat beds, luxury products and a silver service - perfect. I was ushered through immigration and cust

What my customers say

Sonia Brobbin has been great. So easy to book with - hardly took any time at all - and very reasonably priced. It's a competitive market and we all like to think we can get a good deal ourselves, but Sonia has found the perfect break, as per our goal having clearly listened to what we wanted - and we are really looking forward to going. It gives us real peace of mind to know that Sonia is looking after us. I would definitely (and have!) recommend her to friends and family without hesitation.

Sonia has been great understanding our needs and provided valuable information from her own experience. Looking forward to a great holiday with the backup that we have someone to call if there are any unexpected problems.
