Now available in the App Store and Google Play, the app has been designed to increase […]

            Sperrinview Glamping’s futuristic stargazer pods are set in the wild, misty, and undeveloped Sperrins Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in NI. Don’t let the name deceive you, though. This is mercifully about as far away from traditional camping as it’s possible to be! But the hosts have added a few camping touches to retain the

              Standup paddleboarding in Northern Ireland ranks as one of my best recommended local adventures. The biggest secret about Northern Ireland is that so many world travellers have yet to discover it. Yet our Atlantic buffeted shores offer endless treks and vistas for foodies, history buffs, culture vultures, and action heroes. We have some of the

                The Carrie Kells opens with an airy entrance graced with confident Shaker-style furniture, shabby chic touches and welcoming bouquets of fresh flowers. Inside, a smoky fireplace calls hungry regulars in the know. The food on offer is chef-inspired and designer as heck – but delivered in hearty, country-sized portions. The Carrie restaurant in Kells sits

                  Aged pottery and elaborately carved mirrors are set against a dark grey, painted tongue-in-groove backdrop. Voluptuous dining vignettes in the Gallery window and the tall Library hallway with its oversized stone fireplace form the expansive entrance to The French Rooms in Bushmills. While I love dining in new places of all styles as part of

                    Ardtara Country House was built in 1876 by Harry Clark and it remained a family home until 1970s. It was repurchased in 1990, and converted into a hotel in 1994. The estate on which the property sits is insulated from the modern world in a noise-cancelling cocoon of towering, mature trees on the outskirts of

                      Les Halles St Honoré Düsseldorf opens with an enticing deli counter tempting diners to venture further to expectant bistro tables set in a warm, embracing atmosphere. We were brightly greeted at the entrance by a charming French waitress. Attentive serveurs, sommeliers and chefs, each one beckoned us to join their intoxicating ménage à trois –
