It's Nice To Meet You
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I’m Jill and I’m based in Timperley, Cheshire where I live with my husband and two children.
Before becoming a Travel Counsellor I spent twenty years in the travel industry working for one of the worlds leading International hotel companies so I’m perfectly placed to understand and meet all your travel needs. I’ve travelled extensively both for business and leisure and more recently with two small children in-tow. I’ve enjoyed everything from a Water Bungalow experience in the Maldives to a campervan holiday in New Zealand, city breaks to places including New York, Cape Town, Shanghai versus 3 days trekking the Machu Pichu trail and off time off the grid on the Atlantic coast of Ireland. So whether your preference is a luxury trip around the golden triangle of India, a Kenyan Safari, an F1 experience in Monaco or family breaks to Florida, Lapland or Sharm El Sheikh I’d like to think my personal experience can help you make the most of the precious holiday time.
By choosing to book with me you get the best of both worlds, my personal touch backed up by Travel Counsellors size and buying power meaning you get access to market leading rates across all aspects of travel. You will also have the safety and peace of mind that all purchases are 100% protected by ATOL.
Knowing the benefits of a well planned trip and how time consuming it can be, I’d love it if you would let me use my skills and knowledge to build something bespoke to your needs and budget whether it’s a short break, a half term holiday or the trip of lifetime.
Please call me so we can start planning the perfect trip for you.

We are just back from a week in Croatia. It’s been my bucket list for a long time and I’ve organised several trips for clients to various locations over the years so I felt like I knew it quite well. I didn’t expect to fall so hard and fast for it! We based ourselves in Cavtat, about 30 mins south of Dubrovnik and 30 mins north of Herceg Novi in Montenegro. Its an incredibly pretty town, nestle

I first visited Cape Town in December 2019 and its was one of our last holidays before the dreaded lock downs and my memories helped me through. I returned in January 2023 for a flying visit and it is now firmly my favourite city in the world. Cape Town has something for everyone, magnificent scenery, world class beaches, weather, history, food, adventure. I flew from Heathrow on a direct fligh

A week in Paphos (during a pandemic) We were extremely lucky and managed to squeeze in a week long holiday in between lockdowns during half term in October 2020. We choose Cyprus out of necessity to be honest because it was the only place with low enough Covid numbers that we could travel to with a negative PCR test.
