It's been long overdue, long-awaited and frankly needed. The Last time British airways upgraded its business class hard product was 2000 and at that time, it was revolutionary with Club World having the first lie-flat bed in Business class. In that time, however, Club World has lost its charm, whilst other carriers jumped on the lie-flat bandwagon and even added extra improvements like privacy from every seat, BA stuck with its yin and yang styled business class, that is, unt

Brighton, it’s a beautiful city full of love and atmosphere, but when it comes to finding somewhere to stay in Brighton that even has wheelchair access into the hotel it can be a bit of a nightmare - especially around pride! Luckily, one option, if you're looking for a beautiful seafront view, is Holiday Inn Brighton Seafront, a 4* hotel which is perfectly placed for those who want to stay on the seafront whilst also being in the centre of Brighton. The hotel is conveniently

It's been a while, but I've finally managed to do another first-class train review for you all! With the Virgin West Coast review done late last year, it's time to review Cross Country's first class on their class 220/221 Voyager trains. On this journey, I travelled from Reading to Edinburgh, a journey time of 6h30. The First Class section on the Voyager trains is actually disappointing when it comes to travelling as a wheelchair user if you're staying in your chair on the jo

It's been a long time coming, but welcome everyone to the first hotel review of 2019! In this post, I'll be reviewing a Double Accessible Room at Holiday Inn London Heathrow M4 J4, and I'd like to thank Sarah at LGH for inviting me to review this room for you all. Holiday Inn London Heathrow M4 J4 is a 4-star hotel located in a very strategic location as far as hotels in the vicinity of Heathrow Airport go. The hotel is not only within seconds of the M4 and M25 making it incr

As a lot of people who follow me on Instagram and Twitter will have seen, this year I was an ambassador at Naidex which was held at the NEC at the end of April. I initially went there purely to show Brett the chair we're now doing a fundraiser for, RGK's amazing Tiga FX which for travelling, and being able to continue to bring you guys more content on accessible luxury travel and lifestyle, is absolutely perfect for! But whilst at Naidex, I discovered so much more than what I

This trip will always have a special place in my heart, as it was the first trip involving aircraft in the wheelchair. However, I've been on planes plenty of times before that, and thanks to my amazing gran, I travelled well as a child. In this blog post, I'll be reviewing the flight itself, as well as the booking process for assistance at the airports, and the actual assistance received at the airports. British Airways has a very good section on assisted travel and medical c

As part of my accessible hotels series, in this blog post I'll be reviewing the Cardiff Marriott Hotel. The Cardiff Marriott hotel is a 4 star hotel in the centre of Cardiff and is only a few minutes walk away from Cardiff Central Railway Station, Cardiff Castle, and The National Museum Cardiff. There is plenty of car parking available on site at the hotel. The hotel is also very well positioned with St David's Shopping centre and John Lewis being right across the road. This

As Part of my Accessible Hotels series, in this post I'll be review Hilton Hotel Northampton and one of their suites. Brett and I recently stayed here and were very impressed by this hotel and the level of service we received throughout. The Hilton Hotel at Northampton is a 4 star hotel, situated just off of junction 15 of the M1, with easy access to the A45, A508 and other main roads. The hotel is around 40 minutes from the M25, 25 minutes from Milton Keynes, and just 12 mil

After doing the hotels that brett and I stayed at during our French and Spanish roadtrip as part of the Accessible Hotel Series, I thought I'd write a post about the ferry company that actually got us from the UK to mainland France, Brittany Ferries. It's the first time on this blog I've actually written about a ferry company, mainly because I haven't thought to do it until recently, when a few people asked me to review ones I've been on since I became disabled of which there

As part of my accessible hotel series, and leading on from the last review of the Mercure Libourne St Emilion, allow me to introduce you to the final hotel Brett and I stayed in as part of our French and Spanish road trip, Novotel La Rochelle Centre! Novotel La Rochelle Centre is a 4 star hotel in easy reach of both the seafront, and the city centre. There is a large car park with plenty of parking, and the hotel is extremely spacious with large entrance area, and the rooms t

As part of my accessible hotel series, and leading on from the last one of NH Valencia Center, I'm now introducing the second of the 3 hotels Brett and I stayed in on our French and Spainsh roadtrip. Welcome to a review of the Junior Suite at the Mercure Libourne St Emilion! The Mercure Libourne St Emillion is a hotel situated around 25 minutes drive from Bordeaux. Although it has no swimming pool, spa or fitness facilities, the hotel is very nice with a good sized private ca

As part of my accessible hotels series, I'm going back to a few of the hotels I've visited since becoming disabled but hadn't yet started blogging when I visited them. One that stood out for me, was NH Hotel Valencia Center. This particular hotel was probably the best hotel I've stayed at in all of my visits to Spain both before and after I became disabled. The NH Hotel Valencia Center is a 4 star hotel situated within a few minutes stroll of Valencia's Old Town. The suite it

Recently, a lot of my readers have been asking for me to do a series on cars, to go alongside my Accessible Hotel series. So if you've been wondering where on earth I have been, well apart from recovering from a broken hand which I did 3 and a half weeks ago, I've been preparing this new series for you all! As many will know, I myself drive a Mercedes-Benz. You may have even seen my YouTube video about my B180 AMG Premium. If you haven't, I've popped the link in at the bottom

First of all, let me start off with this. I will always be completely 100% honest in my reviews, even though I hate being negative! Like really, really hate negativity. Brett and I stayed at this hotel as a treat away with the rewards points that I'd racked up last year in my Le Club Accor account. Looking on the reviews and facilities of the other Mercure in the city centre, I choose this one due to the fact that it had actual spa facilities and not the 'spa' that Holland Ho

Hey everyone! Last week I got to try out another hotel for you all! Someone had suggested to me that I do a report on Double Tree by Hilton and, as Brett and I desperately needed a night or two away I thought that there wasn't a better time to do it. The Double Tree by Hilton location we stayed at was near Newbury and, opposite Chieveley services. With access to the M4, A34 and, A339, this hotel is perfect for those needing a stopover on a long journey or visiting family in t

Hey everyone! Before I get into the full details of this first blog in the series, allow me to explain exactly what this is about! As someone who loves travelling and blogging I decided to combine the two as part of a series on this blog. As my regular readers know, I tend to blog or vlog about more things than just travelling! The more I've blogged, the more it's become clearer to me that there is a need for this series, as many of us love to travel regardless of society's p
