Castles, Coastlines & Cuppas: What a TraveLove Trip Really Looks Like

Beyond bucket lists and tour buses—this is travel that lingers, listens, and leaves you changed (with a proper cuppa in hand, of course).

What does a trip with me actually look like?

Picture this: You’re sipping a steaming cup of Yorkshire Gold in a stone cottage overlooking the moors. There’s a crumbling castle behind you, a seaside pub down the lane, and a thoughtfully crafted itinerary that somehow feels like it knew you better than your best friend.

That’s the magic of castles, coastlines, and cuppas—TraveLove style.

The TraveLove Signature: Castles, Coastlines & Cuppas

So what’s different about how I plan?

For starters—everything.

I specialize in deeply personal travel across the British Isles—England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland—with a balance of wild wonder and refined comfort. Think:

  • Castles you sleep in, not just tour.
  • Coastlines you walk, not just drive past.
  • Cuppas that follow misty morning rambles or fireside reads.

You’ll stay in boutique spots I’ve personally vetted (no soulless chains here), dine at places with stories behind every menu, and explore with guides who live and breathe their homelands. do.

Travel That Feels Like You

Each trip is a collaboration. I listen for what matters—whether it’s tracing literary ghosts through the Highlands, or sipping Cornish sparkling wine beside the sea. No two journeys are the same, because no two travelers are.

And yes, there are always castles, coastlines, and cuppas. Sometimes all in the same unforgettable day.

Want to start dreaming? This tea trail guide is a charming place to begin—one cuppa at a time.

Why the British Isles?

Because nowhere else does cozy and majestic quite like they do.

It’s where misty mornings meet roaring fires. Where every hill has a tale, and every tearoom has a loyal stance on the jam-before-cream debate (don’t get me started on Devon vs. Cornwall).

This is where I fell in love with travel—the kind that’s slow, meaningful, and rooted in place. It’s the heart of everything I design at TraveLove. The kind I now create through TraveLove’s Atelier planning approach.
