New Year’s Eve in Iceland

read more

New Year’s Eve need not be over rated, anti-climatic and overpriced. Having spent the last six years in different cities, from London, to Orlando, Las Vegas, New York and Abu Dhabi, we love finding a new destination to enjoy the celebrations of New Years Eve. To ring in 2016 we picked Iceland. Iceland has to be one of […]

Fire & Ice -The Best of Iceland

read more

A trip to Iceland was booked slightly naively, solely to hunt for the Northern Lights. Then realisation dawned that if we didn’t see them it would be a pretty disastrous trip. Fortunately Iceland has so much more to offer, than just the Northern Lights, so much so, we almost forgot they were the sole purpose […]

Tasting the New Spring Menu at The Perch, Oxford

Tasting the New Spring Menu at The Perch, Oxford

Food & Drink Weddings

Set amongst the meadows of Binsey, The Perch is a quintessentially British gastropub, that has beautifully preserved it’s 17th century heritage. It’s traditional thatched roof, with smoke bellowing from the chimney is charming. There’s a rustic feel, as the log fire burns, making it all rather cosy. The Perch’s new Spring Menu is worth venturing out for and it’s clearly popular amongst locals, with a full house mid week. The Butchers Board starter was a hearty platter exploding with smoked goose, home corned beef, Kelmscott salami, country pork pate,and served with a warm, rustic, homemade bread. The Charred Sprouting Broccoli, was fresh and buttery, topped with a perfectly poached duck egg served with fried, crunchy, salty capers. The meaty Chargrilled 8oz Burger,came fully loaded with farmhouse cheddar, bacon & tomato relish. Triple cooked chips are a guilty pleasure that we can never resist and were cooked to perfection. The Free-Range Pork Belly, on a bed of tangy scrumpy braised carrots, with crackling & pear mustard was delicious. One cannot visit a pub without trying their homemade dessert, especially when there is crumble on the menu. Even if it means loosening a belt, or popping a button, it is well worth it. This was no ordinary crumble. The Binsey Apple & Ginger crumble was fragrant and heart warming. The unique ginger and apple combination was […]

The Dinosaurs are in Town

The Dinosaurs are in Town

Events

Looking for an adventure this half term? The dinosaurs are in town, in the Jurassic Kingdom, that’s taken over Osterley Park & House National Trust, and brought it to life. Amongst the spring flowers, thirty larger than life dinosaurs, have been sprawled around the park. Behind the bushes and in the tree canopy you can see them peering through. The grounds of Georgian country estate have been transformed for just a few weeks only. Welcomed by the huge roaring t-rex, it’s all rather realistic, impressive and intriguing, for the adults as much as the children. Children can be heard squealing with joy whilst others can be seen cowering away, startled by the moving dinosaurs. The roaring can be heard throughout the park, and will keep the kids amused for hours. Amongst the woodland, the dinosaurs are standing tall, and it’s a reasonably long walk around Osterley House and Park to see them all. It’s really lovely on a warm, sunny Spring day. You can easily rack up 6000 steps if you are counting, as you get up close and personal to the dinosaurs. The animatronics are so realistic, it really feels like being in a Jurassic Park movie. There are baby dinosaurs hatching from eggs and different […]

Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, Oxford

Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, Oxford

Food & Drink Honeymoons

Raymond Blanc’s Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons is a lovely manor set in 30 acres of picturesque grounds in Oxford. As you walk through the gates you feel like you have entered a secret garden. Fresh herbs and vegetables being grown amongst Japanese gardens add to the charm. The hotel and restaurant atmosphere is lovely and relaxed. The seven course lunch is rather indulgent and spanned a whole afternoon. With the finest ingredients, each dish is intricately presented, with divine flavours and attentive service. We would agree it is rather deserving of its two Michelin stars. Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, Church Road, Great Milton, Oxford, OX44 7PD, UK
