By : Lyndsey O'Halloran

Collaborative post A family holiday to Tenerife offers so many benefits. First and foremost, it’s a chance to get away and spend some quality time with your loved ones. All being well, you’ll be able to soak up some sun and take a break from the stresses and strains of everyday life. Of course, a family trip may not be quite as relaxing as a child-free holiday for just you and your partner, but seeing the kids enjoy themselves can be far more rewarding than any week spent on a sun lounger.

7 things to do on a weekend break in Madrid

By : Lyndsey O'Halloran

Madrid is similar to a Spanish version of New York City with over three million people. We can speak of American cities being rich in their history, but they are infants compared to Spanish Madrid’s political, religious, and artistic histories. This capital of Spain has given birth to writers like Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (Don Quixote) and Felix Lope de Vega. Its artists include Diego de Velazquez and Francisco de Goya. If you are visiting Madrid, plan to stay longer than a few days as this bustling city has much to offer, no matter what

Why Puerto Pollensa Is A Great Destination For Families

By : Lyndsey OHalloran

AD | Paid collaboration Last year we went on our first holiday abroad as a family. For something like this there was quite a lot of research involved as I wanted to make it really special and to make sure there was something for all of us.

AD | Collaborative post I only went on a holiday overseas for the first time when I was 18 and I loved it.

Over the years I have been lucky enough to go on some wonderful holidays to places such as New York and Rome.

What to expect from an all inclusive holiday package

By : Lyndsey OHalloran

At the age of 32 I had never been on an all inclusive holiday. I don’t know why but they had never really appealed to me before. I went through a crazy drinking phase before I was even legal to drink so by the time I was going on holidays I wasn’t interested in going somewhere to drink my money’s worth. When we booked our recent holiday to Majorca I wanted to not have to think about much while we were there so we splashed out and went all inclusive. However, I really didn’t know

A couple of weeks ago we went on our very first family holiday abroad to Majorca and we stayed at the FERGUS Style Pollensa Park SPA in Puerto Pollensa. Choosing a hotel online can be quite tricky as you never really know what to expect but luckily a few people I know have stayed here before and told me how nice it was. We booked our holiday through Jet2 but this hotel can be booked elsewhere as well. The Hotel From the airport was had a transfer which took us right to our hotel. On the way, we
