YOUR ACCOMMDATION TYPE IS

Mostly a: The Guest House Guy

You want luxury for less. You enjoy being pampered, but you’re also willing to cut down on your accommodation costs where necessary so that you can spend a bit more on dinners and activities. That fine linen won’t go unnoticed though! We love these gorgeous guest houses!

Mostly b: Self-Catering Susan

You relish the freedom to do what you want, when you want. You prefer having your own space, and won’t turn up your nose when it comes to cleaning up your own mess at the end of the day. After all, it’s the price you pay for privacy! We love these savvy self-catering units!

Mostly c: Hotels Only, Honey

You enjoy the finer things in life, whether you’re travelling for business or pleasure. When you go on holiday, you expect all the comforts of home, plus a little extra! Fine dining, a spa, and excellent service are just a few things you look forward to. Just remember to take the time to venture out of your hotel room as there’s plenty happening outdoors! We love these heavenly hotels!

Mostly d: Bed and Breakfast Betty

You prefer the comfort of a home away from home, with all of the basics but none of the unnecessary fluff. A tea and coffee tray and a free breakfast are enough for you, as you’ll likely be spending the rest of your time exploring or visiting friends and family anyway. We love these beautiful B&Bs!

Mostly e: Bob the Backpacker

You’re a go-getter who picks exciting travel plans over luxury accommodation. You’d rather spend that little bit extra on adventures in the great outdoors! A bed and internet station would do just fine – so you can make your friends and family back home jealous with your travel stories from around the world! We love these brilliant backpackers!
