POP UP PICTURES: present sunset screenings with Rick Stein at Chewton Glen this July For the perfect summers evening, and a mini escape away from London, we recommend Pop Up Pictures sunset screenings, a summer of al fresco cinema at two stunning locations both less than two hours away from London. What's more, the godfather of cookery, Rick Stein is providing guests with a two-course feast, whilst Tom Kerridge has kindly provided his famous Hand & Flowers ice cream to finish everything off. Starting the summer at the picturesque Clivedon House in Buckinghamshire, the cinema will then ...

I first experienced Camp Wildfire last year. It rained non-stop, I was covered in mud, but it didn't deter me from returning for more. This underground festival, which mixes outdoor adventuring with musical revelry, is pretty unique. On this year's menu, there was a whole host of activities to tantalise campers, from beekeeping classes to tie dye workshops. New offerings included zorbing, ice cream-making and natural headdress building. Thanks to an online scheduling system, this year was much more organised. Before I landed in the Kent countryside - just a 30 minute ride from London Victo...

Sat on the fish restaurant's newly-opened summer terrace we could watch the madness from a safe distance. Drunk revellers passed us by, interspersed with smartly-dressed theatre-goers. J Sheekey is one of my favourite central spots for seafood but I hadn't been for years. On my return, I was delighted to find nothing much had changed other than the re-vamped terrace area. Everything is done to perfection. Old-school character dressed with a dash of modern-day pizzazz...

The wonderful thing about the hotel is that it’s close enough to visit the neighbouring cities of Granada or Malaga for instance but it feels like it’s completely in the middle of nowhere, miles from civilization.

We spend our summers trudging through the mud, dragging our giant rucksacks to a boggy field, drinking warm rose out of a box - all to listen to some of the best in music and performance and feast on some of the most exciting street food. However, festivals are evolving and offering much more in the way of creature comforts than they used too - now Michelin starred chefs will cook you intimate dinners, renowned yoga instructors can give you one on one sessions, you can even learn a new skill - from paddle boarding to painting, festivals these days are much, much mor...

Read more →Macedonia doesn’t currently appear at the top of many people’s bucket list destinations but if you’re looking for a little Mediterranean treasure, away from the hoards of the usual European crowds then look no further than this warm-hearted, history-rich country. As a land-locked nation, it is often overlooked in favour of the nearby countries Greece and Croatia, which boast white sand beaches and crystal clear waters, but Macedonia’s 940 foot-deep secret is a huge attraction and if it’s a large body of water you’re after with a seaside culture than Lake Ohrid is the spot. The town of Ohrid...
