@foxhillssurrey has the energy of a private club where nobody seems in a hurry to leave the grounds.

The estate has the rhythm of a private club, with people moving between tennis courts, long lunches, spa treatments and late drinks. Guests often arrive for a weekend and end up treating it more like a members’ escape than a hotel stay.

Lomri adds another reason to stay on property instead of leaving for dinner.

Would you book Foxhills for the spa break, the golf weekend or the food scene?

Elegant Hotel Collection is delighted to welcome @foxhillssurrey to its global portfolio of independent luxury hotels.

This countryside club and resort near London and Heathrow, brings together championship golf, wellness, great food and modern British country life across 400 acres of Surrey countryside.

Just beyond the city, Foxhills offers space to switch pace, whether for a weekend away, a longer stay, or a stop within a wider UK itinerary. At the heart of the resort is the Manor House, surrounded by woodland trails, fairways, courtyards and places designed for both relaxation and connection.

Relaxed yet refined, Foxhills offers a modern countryside escape where life moves a little differently, close enough to London for convenience, but far enough away to properly switch off.l

Barcelona’s best bars right now say as much about

Barcelona’s best bars right now say as much about the city’s design culture as its nightlife.

Places like Paradiso and Monk turn cocktails into part of the architecture, while Stravinsky’s Parfumerie leans into scent, texture and detail with the precision of a luxury fashion store. Shôko keeps the energy high near the beach, but Jaç Hi-Fi Café shifts the mood completely with vinyl, warm wood interiors and conversations that stretch late into the night.

These are the kind of places people bookmark before they even book the flight. Which would you go to first?

A swimming pool often decides the booking because

A swimming pool often decides the booking because it shapes how the stay will unfold from the moment you arrive. It becomes the place you gravitate towards without thinking, where you ease into the day with a swim before breakfast and return later when the pace naturally slows.

The best luxury hotels understand this and design their pools as the part of the stay that shapes the experience.

Which one would you dive into first?

Some hotels end up in every photo. You open the door, step outside, and reach for your phone straight away because the view is stunning.

Elegant Hotel Collection brings together places where terraces open onto wide landscapes, pools sit against uninterrupted horizons, and every angle feels naturally framed. These are the kind of stays that fill a camera roll quickly. Selfies with a breathtaking view become part of the stay, something you return to or share with friends on social media.

Easter becomes more interesting when the hotel builds the experience around it.

The Bodmin Jail Hotel brings a cool vibe in an unusual setting, while Galgorm focuses on food that keeps children engaged and gives parents time to slow the pace. Rudding Park leans into a more refined Easter Sunday, with attention centred on the table. Down Hall takes a different approach, with a seasonal afternoon tea, and Taplow House keeps things classic with an Easter egg hunt that delivers every time.

Each one offers a distinct way to spend the weekend.

Which one would you book for your family?

There are many reasons to stay at TreeHouse Villas

There are many reasons to stay at TreeHouse Villas Koh Yao but if we have to pick only five, these are the ones.

Two storey villas set above the ground, with private pools and open fronts. A setting that naturally leads to iconic social media moment, especially at sunrise and late afternoon. Outdoor spa treatments placed close to the shoreline, rooted in Thai practice. A strong sense of romance shaped by the bay and its quiet pace. Direct access to island hopping across Phang Nga Bay. And of course evenings at the clubhouse, where you can relax by the pool with a cocktail.

Which of these would you try first?

Garden dining is shaping the best luxury travel tr

Garden dining is shaping the best luxury travel trends for 2026, with travellers actively searching for the best outdoor restaurants in Europe and coastal destinations. Eating in a garden changes the entire dining experience. Natural light enhances presentation, fresh air sharpens flavour, and open surroundings create a relaxed social energy that defines modern fine dining.

From the French Riviera to Mediterranean beach towns and design-led city courtyards, al fresco restaurants now rank among the best places to go for summer travel. Guests are choosing terrace dining, botanical courtyards and sea-facing garden tables over formal interiors. The setting adds depth to seasonal menus and makes long lunches feel elevated yet effortless.

For your next luxury escape, would you book a Riviera garden lunch or a coastal sunset dinner first?

FIFTY TWO at Rudding Park has been awarded a Michelin Guide Star, a first for Harrogate and a defining moment for chef Adam and his team. The restaurant was built with a clear intention: genuine cooking rooted in produce grown in its own kitchen garden. Emma and her garden team shape every dish, guiding the menu through the seasons.

Recognition extends to Other Adam™, Jess, Callum, Finn and Robbie, alongside the Mackaness family, whose support allowed the concept to flourish. Guests arrive, “see no menu, and say ‘go on then.’” That trust defines the experience and positions FIFTY TWO among the best Michelin Star restaurants in the UK for those seeking refined destination dining.

Would you travel to Harrogate for a Michelin Star experience?
