One of my fave trips from last year, even if my waistline came home with a few regrets. Foodie and fabulous, Madrid is the perfect city break Kirker Holidays theguardian.com/food/2024/mar/…

This quiet corner of Crete was one of my favourite trips last year - the perfect island retreat. Another great find from Simpson Travel theguardian.com/travel/2024/ap…

Possibly my favourite city hotel ever. An absolute masterclass in understated, unpretentious luxury. Pricey? Absolutely. Worth it? Oh yes. thetimes.co.uk/travel/destina…

Done a clutch of foodie-themed pieces recently but Istanbul takes the crown. Ate superbly everywhere from street food stalls to Michelin-star restaurants. Loved every bite Turkiye Tourism and Culture Office UK theguardian.com/travel/2024/ap…

Lovely piece about the inspiration for THE VILLAGE TRATTORIA by Annabelle Thorpe 💙 - bloomsbury.com/uk/discover/ar…

A plea to all PRs - if you see a journalist request please read it properly. If it says no UK, no city hotels then don't send them! Wading through dozens of responses that have no relevance to the original request. It's just a waste of everyone's time.
