SIX IN SCOTLAND EXPLORE

From guided walks through ancient pinewoods to winter escapes that trace a path from mountain to sea, a new wave of thoughtfully designed experiences is inviting travellers to experience Scotland differently.

Scotland’s appeal has always rested on its landscapes, history, culture and quietly powerful sense of place, washed down with a dram of whisky. What’s new is the way these elements are being woven into immersive, small-scale experiences that prioritise depth over spectacle. Here are six new curated adventures for 2026 that reveal the country’s character through walking, wellness, culture and cuisine.

1. GUIDED WALKING ADVENTURES

A new seven-day Highland Guiding walking tour has been created by locals to offer small groups of walkers an adventure in the Cairngorms National Park, with departure dates in May and August. The experienced guides bring the Cairngorms to life through their knowledge of the flora, fauna, history, geography, culture and rich stories of the area.

Beginning in the Speyside region, walkers amble amongst glorious Caledonian pinewoods and magnificent glens, visit one of Scotland’s finest castles, and spend an evening spotting park residents at a local wildlife hide, hopefully catching sight of red squirrels, ospreys, crested tits or the elusive pine marten. The second part of the tour explores the delights of Deeside, again hiking through stunning scenery and taking a wander along oft-overlooked trails. Nights are spent in handpicked, locally owned accommodation, where hearty Highland meals are on offer to accompany the warm hospitality the region is known for.

2. FROM MOUNTAINS TO SEA

Cairngorm Bothies, the holder of a Gold Green Tourism Award for off-grid and slowcation accommodation nestled in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park, has announced a new collaborative project for 2026: the ‘Mountains to Sea’ Winter Escape. This package is tailored for couples, is dog-friendly, and rooted in sustainable, low-impact travel, providing a luxurious, sequential experience of Scotland’s most dramatic landscapes.

The immersive journey begins in the mountains. Guests check in for two nights at Cairngorm Bothies, enjoying cosy solitude, wood-burning stoves, and direct access to winter hiking and mountain wildlife, fully immersing in the ‘Mountain’ experience. The itinerary then transitions seamlessly to the ‘Sea’ component through a partnership with Dalriada Luxury Lodges. Guests spend two nights in Stonehaven, unwinding amid spectacular clifftop views of the North Sea, perfectly positioned to explore the Aberdeenshire coastline and historical sites like Dunnottar Castle.

3. A SEA VIEW SPA

On Scotland’s west coast, a new £3 million sea view spa is set to open at The Waterside Hotel in West Kilbride. Overlooking the Firth of Clyde towards the Isle of Arran, the spa is designed to make the most of its coastal setting. Facilities include six treatment rooms, a four-person Rasul experience, an indoor thermal area with sauna and steam room, and a series of experience showers. Outdoors, a large hydro pool, cold bucket shower and sheltered firepit area encourage guests to linger by the shore. Just 40 minutes from Glasgow, the spa emphasises the restorative qualities of sea air and open space.

For more information on The Waterside Hotel, see www.watersideayrshire.com

4. CULINARY AND CULTURAL

At Links House at Royal Dornoch, a new line-up of culinary and cultural experiences is being unveiled to awaken the senses, proving there is more than whisky, golf and fine dining on offer at this five-star venue in the far north Scottish Highlands. Guests at Links House have exclusive access to a full calendar of quarterly gatherings, which includes an insight into ‘The Scottish Colourists’ hosted by a world-famous art expert; the scent of fine fragrances with a notable perfumer; and an evening of stargazing to learn more about the dark skies above the Dornoch Firth. Scotch whisky and global drinks brands are at the heart of every Links House experience, too, so exclusive drams and informative tastings will also be part of the events programme.

Located just 100 yards from the first tee of the iconic Royal Dornoch golf course and close to a variety of Highland fairways, Links House is the home of world-class golf on the North Coast 500. The venue will also continue to host private ‘ultimate gourmet Anteroom Supper Club experiences’, which showcase the talents of head chef Theo Creton and the inspirational people, producers and world-renowned brands in the intimate setting of Links House. Each five-course tasting menu, designed for up to 12 guests, is served around an original Georgian dining table dating back to when Links House was built in the early 19th century.

5. IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF TRAITORS

In the far north of Scotland, new Traitors-inspired breaks are drawing on the popularity of the BBC television series to highlight the castles and landscapes of the area. Highland Coast Hotels has devised a visitor itinerary to showcase the dramatic and rugged landscape of the North Highlands and the region’s most iconic castles, including Dunrobin, near Brora and The Castle & Gardens of Mey, near John O’Groats. While the series was filmed at Ardross Castle near Inverness, these breaks focus on sites that are open year-round, offering a practical base for exploring the northern stretch of the North Coast 500

The four-night Traitors-inspired break includes two nights at Royal Marine Hotel in Brora and two nights B&B at Tongue Hotel, which has views towards Castle Varrich. The package also includes entry to Dunrobin Castle and the Castle & Gardens of Mey, as well as a freshly prepared packed lunch to take on each day trip.

6. LOCH AND CASTLE VIEWS

In Argyll, plans are underway to open a new café overlooking Castle Stalker and Loch Linnhe. Led by the team behind The Pierhouse Hotel at Port Appin, the redevelopment will transform the former Castle Stalker View Café into a space designed for both locals and travellers. With indoor and outdoor seating, the café will offer sweeping views across Loch Linnhe to Castle Stalker, Sgeir Bhuidhe Lighthouse, and the islands of Mull and Lismore towards the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. Positioned on a popular route between Glencoe, Fort William and Oban, it will serve those exploring the coast by car, foot, bicycle or kayak. Loch Linnhe and Castle Stalker are also a popular stop for people travelling between Glencoe, Fort William and Oban.

GOURMET

WINE CHAT

Meet restaurateurs Tom and Ashley Fahey from The Terrace Rooms & Wine.

They may be unintended restaurateurs, but Tom and Ashley Fahey have deliberately and thoughtfully crafted Terrace Rooms & Wine on the Ventnor seafront on the Isle of Wight as a wine-lover’s paradise. Tom is sommelier, buyer, host and chef, while Ashley runs front of house, design and marketing. Here’s how this partnership delivers one of the UK’s best wine lists.

TOM, WHAT WAS YOUR PATH TO BEING A RESTAURATEUR?

I was a guidebook inspector and restaurant reviewer for 15 years. I spent time in 70+ restaurant kitchens observing how things are done. In 2020, Ashley’s father bought a restaurant and needed help, I went to give it, then Ashley moved down to help and we found ourselves in charge of The Terrace in Yarmouth. We had always sworn we would never ever open a restaurant.

ASHLEY, WHAT WAS YOUR PATH INTO HOSPITALITY?

I’ve worked in hospitality my whole life. My father briefly had a restaurant when I was 11, so I was a novelty waitress that summer; then, as soon as I was allowed to get a job, I started waitressing in the local pub. I completed hotel management training before heading off to Barcelona, where I stumbled into the world of superyachts. I’ve been back in the UK for 12 years now working in private houses running cookery schools and then my father’s restaurant.

HOW DO THE TWO OF YOU WORK TOGETHER ACROSS FOOD, WINE AND OPERATIONS?

Aside from breakfast, Tom is in charge of all things food. I generally look after the hotel side of things but we both give input to each other’s elements of the business. While I’m involved in the wine side to a certain degree, it is definitely his domain as he is ridiculously good at it. We just don’t let him loose on room design or the overall guest experience.

YOUR WINE LIST IS SOMETHING SPECIAL. WHAT IS THE ETHOS BEHIND THIS LIST?

Tom: Inclusivity. We want to give the curious a route into the world of wine that isn’t price exclusive, so while the list is global and driven to show key styles and favourites, it’s also extremely affordable. There are barely ten wines that cost over £100; the median price is about £40.

YOU RECENTLY WON AN AWARD FOR THE BEST NEW ZEALAND WINE LIST IN THE UK. WHY ARE YOU DRAWN TO NZ WINES?

Ashley lived in Auckland for a year – we drank a lot of New Zealand wine as a result. What expanded the representation was our search for immediacy and deliciousness at a good price point. New Zealand producers deliver this in spades.

WHAT FACTORS HELP YOU DECIDE A WINE IS ON THE LIST?

Since the Pinot Noir Conference in New Zealand and visiting so many vineyards where I could speak to viticulturalists and winemakers, I’ve realised the importance of sustainability. We’ve dropped a lot of lines where we can’t get straight answers about practices in the vineyard. Outside this, wines are picked for a number of reasons – perhaps to deliver a particular tasting, perhaps they are better value or more delicious than an existing line, perhaps they make a statement about a particular style or region, or perhaps they are made by a key producer.

DO YOU EVER DISAGREE ON WINES?

Ashley: It can happen. We have a pleasant Loire Sauvignon from a top Sancerre producer that I’m attached to because it sells well and has a great price point, while Tom thinks an example of modern biodynamic Sancerre would be better in the slot. The result will likely be finding something that we no longer feel is relevant so we’ll lose one and the debate is settled.

HOW OFTEN DO THE WINES CHANGE?

Constantly. We have a bin-end selection in the bar where guests can take a mixed case on departure for £68. It’s a big saving and it works because we’re always finding new wines. We sometimes have to change due to vintage, too. 2024 has not been a great one in Europe so we might skip it altogether. About 25% of our list can never be rebought due to age or rarity so when those lines end, we need another to take the slot.

YOUR ROSÉ LIST HAS ALSO BEEN RECOGNISED. WHAT IS IT ABOUT ROSÉ THAT DRAWS OUR INTEREST?

Tom: We’re by the sea, so guests naturally want to drink rosé but, perhaps more importantly, rosé is a neglected and misunderstood category. Because so much of our ethos lies in encouraging an interest in wine, we latched on to the opportunity rose presented. Dark rosé isn’t sweet. Pale rosé isn’t always dry. Rosé is as varied and complex as white or red. It can be oaked, it can be tannic, it can be natural and funky or clean and delicate. We have fun with tastings that demonstrate all of these things in the glass.

WHAT ROSÉ FROM YOUR CURRENT LIST DO YOU CONSIDER AS THE BEST ALL-ROUNDER?

Michel Seresin’s ‘Zosia’ Pinot Noir Rosé is a brilliant all-rounder. Clean flavours, crisp but rounded acidity and deeply concentrated fruit with so much power and a hint of lactic balance from partial malolactic.

YOU START YOUR MENU FROM THE WINE. HOW DOES THAT WORK?

Most sommeliers are presented with a dish by a chef and tasked with picking a wine to match. Because I perform both roles, I can create dishes to match wines. Often I work based on flavour matching – so I make a warm tartare sauce with salted gooseberries and asparagus pickled in elderflower vinegar that mirrors the flavours of Marlborough Sauvignon. Another classic is Island dairy beef with stuffed padron pepper, elderberry and eucalyptus paired with Coonawarra Cab. The berries, green pepper and eucalyptus are exact mirrors and the weight and acidity of the wine do a lot to balance and lift the steak and sauce.

IS THERE A COUNTRY TO WATCH FOR WINE AFICIONADOS?

I’d urge consumers to explore Spain in more depth than Rioja and Alberino. In every region, key growers are pushing to rediscover wine heritage that’s been lost in the commercial bulk winemaking of the dictatorship. Those tiny, brave wineries spearheading the reemergence of terroir-first winemaking and rediscovery of unique, indigenous grapes that actually mean something in the glass make up a tiny proportion of output and it’s only with consumer knowledge that these initiatives can be made the norm. For price-aware drinkers looking for quality and excitement, Spain is hard to beat.

DO YOU HAVE THAT ONE BOTTLE THAT IS WAITING FOR THE RIGHT OCCASION?

Yes, a jeroboam of Domaine Pinson Mont de MIlleu 1er Cru Chablis 2016. It was bought for us on our wedding day by a dear friend. We will be cracking it in December for our 10th anniversary, alongside the winemaker who is popping over from Chablis for the occasion.

WHAT WINE IS YOUR CURRENT PICK TO SHARE OVER A DINNER WITH FRIENDS?

Chateaux Doyenne’s 2018 Cotes du Bordeaux is the wine I open again and again when I want to give guests a wow moment. It’s one of the best, yet the lack of prestige associated with the domaine brings it in at only £20 retail. Come here and try it – it’s worth the ferry price alone!

LIFESTYLE

COTSWOLDS CALLING

From Capital to countryside: why London buyers continue to choose the Cotswolds

For decades, London and the Cotswolds have been linked by more than distance. The capital brings careers, culture and pace; the Cotswolds offers space, beauty and permanence. Together they form one of Britain’s most enduring property relationships; not an escape from London, but a rebalancing around it.

“The appeal isn’t about turning your back on London,” says Fergus Mitchell, founder and director of The Cotswold Letting Agency and Property Search Co. “For many buyers, it’s about gaining the best of both worlds, a rural home environment that still allows access to the capital when needed.”

LANDSCAPE, HERITAGE AND ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER THAT HOLD VALUE

The Cotswolds’ visual identity, limestone villages, historic towns and protected countryside gives it unusual consistency. Planning constraints limit overdevelopment, preserving character and supporting long-term desirability.

For London buyers used to compact plots and dense streets, the change is immediate: gardens, outlook and architectural individuality become everyday features. “Cotswold property has an emotional dimension,” says Naomi Gleeson, cofounder of Property Search Co. “People connect with the architecture and landscape in a way that’s difficult to replicate elsewhere. That emotional pull often underpins the decision to move.”

CONNECTIVITY THAT MAKES COUNTRYSIDE LIVING PRACTICAL

Rail services from stations such as Kingham, Charlbury, Moreton-in-Marsh and Kemble typically reach London in around 70–90 minutes, while the M4, M5 and A40 support flexible travel. With hybrid working now common, distance is measured in journey time rather than mileage.

“The perception of what counts as commutable has shifted,” Mitchell explains. “If you only need to be in London part-time, living in the Cotswolds becomes entirely practical rather than aspirational.”

SCHOOLS AND FAMILY PRIORITIES THAT ANCHOR THE MOVE

Education is often decisive. The region sits within reach of highly regarded schools across Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire, allowing families to trade urban density for rural space without sacrificing academic options. Villages within realistic school reach and station access tend to see sustained London demand and price resilience.

People connect with the architecture and landscape in a way that’s difficult to replicate elsewhere.

COMMUNITY LIFE REPLACING URBAN DENSITY

A common concern is social isolation. In reality, many arrivals find the opposite: village events, clubs and local networks create frequent interaction and shared identity. “There’s a misconception that rural living is isolating,” Gleeson says. “In the Cotswolds, communities are active and socially rich. Many buyers are surprised by how connected they feel once settled.” The presence of many former Londoners further smooths transition, blending metropolitan expectations with rural rhythms.

SCARCITY THAT SUSTAINS THE LONDON–COTSWOLDS LINK

Protected landscape and limited new development constrain supply, particularly in prime villages and commuter-friendly towns. Many transactions remain private or off-market, reinforcing exclusivity.

This scarcity keeps demand closely tied to London: buyers continue seeking countryside living within reach of the capital. Ultimately, the relationship endures because it answers a modern aspiration –careers and culture in London, daily life in landscape and community.

“The move is rarely about abandoning the city,” Mitchell reflects. “It’s about redefining how you live around it.”

For many households, that balance continues to make the Cotswolds not simply an escape from London, but its natural counterpart.

NORTH EAST

The North East of England offers a wealth of opportunity for buyers seeking affordability, architectural charm and strong community spirit.

With a backdrop of coastal beauty, countryside calm and evolving cityscapes, this region is steadily gaining recognition for its quality of life and investment promise.

Newcastle stands at the heart of the region – a vibrant, well-connected city blending historic character with a forward-looking tech and education sector. With significant regeneration along the Quayside and surrounding districts, it’s fast becoming a hub for modern urban living. Just across the Tyne, Gateshead is also transforming, with new developments and cultural landmarks reshaping its profile.

Durham, with its medieval streets and toptier university, offers both historic appeal and strong rental potential. Meanwhile, Sunderland and Middlesbrough present some of the most affordable property options in the UK, attracting investors seeking value with long-term growth.

Beyond the cities, the Northumberland coast and the Yorkshire border towns offer scenic escapes and charming period homes ideal for families, retirees or second-home buyers.

Leeds continues to lead as an economic powerhouse, with a booming professional sector and major regeneration projects reshaping its skyline.

Cities such as Nottingham and Leicester are leading the charge, driven by thriving universities, dynamic job markets and ambitious regeneration projects. Both cities offer a wide range of property options, from sleek city-centre apartments to substantial family homes in leafy suburbs. Derby, with its rich industrial heritage and growing tech sector, also presents a promising market, particularly for young professionals and first-time buyers.

Outside the urban centres, the East Midlands offers quintessential market towns and countryside escapes. Locations such as Melton Mowbray, Newark and Market Harborough deliver period charm and community appeal, all while maintaining excellent rail connections to London and beyond.

NEW HOLME FARM,

WEST MIDLANDS

At the centre of the UK lies the West Midlands, a region rich in industrial heritage, cultural dynamism and growing property appeal.

Once defined by its manufacturing past, today’s West Midlands is being reimagined through regeneration, connectivity and a housing market that combines strong value with impressive potential.

Birmingham, the region’s anchor city, has undergone a dramatic transformation, emerging as a hub for finance, tech and education. With continued investment in its infrastructure, the city offers a compelling case for urban living, with stylish apartments, family homes, and modern developments cropping up across regenerated districts like Digbeth and the Jewellery Quarter.

Beyond the city, Coventry is gaining momentum, fuelled by its status as a City of Culture and its rapidly improving transport links. Towns like Walsall and Dudley are also experiencing revitalisation, offering more affordable entry points with long-term promise.

For those seeking a balance of space and accessibility, areas such as Solihull and Sutton Coldfield deliver suburban comfort without sacrificing connectivity to the urban core.

Wales offers a property market unlike any other in the UK – where sweeping coastlines, dramatic mountains and historic towns create a backdrop of extraordinary lifestyle appeal.

From bustling cities to peaceful rural retreats, Wales is attracting buyers who value space, scenery and a strong sense of community, often at prices far more accessible than in many parts of England.

Swansea, with its proximity to the Gower Peninsula, offers coastal living with urban convenience, while Newport’s improving transport links to Bristol and London have fuelled significant demand.

Beyond the cities, the charm of Wales truly comes alive. The Brecon Beacons, Snowdonia and Pembrokeshire provide idyllic rural and seaside living, attracting second-home buyers, retirees and those seeking a change of pace. Market towns such as Monmouth, Llandeilo and Conwy offer heritage homes, boutique shopping and vibrant local communities.

In this issue, we feature a selection of Welsh properties that showcase the country’s diversity – homes that combine natural beauty, rich history and strong value in one of the UK’s most captivating regions.

NORTHERN IRELAND

Northern Ireland’s property market is experiencing a quiet yet confident resurgence, offering buyers a compelling mix of affordability, lifestyle and investment potential.

With its rich cultural heritage, striking landscapes and steadily improving infrastructure, this region is drawing interest from both local movers and those relocating from across the UK and beyond.

Belfast, the capital, has transformed in recent years into a thriving hub for business, education and the arts. Regeneration projects in the Titanic Quarter and Cathedral Quarter have created stylish modern apartments alongside restored historic buildings, appealing to young professionals and investors alike. Derry~Londonderry offers a smaller-city charm with a vibrant cultural scene, excellent schools and strong community ties.

Beyond the urban centres, Northern Ireland’s countryside and coast are hard to rival. The Causeway Coast, Mourne Mountains and Fermanagh Lakelands offer stunning settings for rural and holiday homes, while market towns like Ballymena, Armagh and Enniskillen provide a mix of period properties, modern builds and welcoming communities.

JOURNEY

DRAGONS IN THE MIST

With up to 2,000 limestone karsts and islets, Ha Long Bay in Northern Vietnam is geologically spectacular, drawing visitors from across the globe to cruise its calm waters.

Giselle Whiteaker lingers in this landscape at the InterContinental Halong Bay Resort.

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the hotel lobby, we can make out the outlines of the limestone karst formations that make up Ha Long Bay. On this unseasonably cold day for Northern Vietnam, they are shrouded in a light mist, the water opalescent without the sun to draw out its emerald-green undertones. The sight is mesmerising, mystical, but inside my head there’s a soundtrack running of ‘Puff, the Magic Dragon’, as he ‘frolicked in the autumn mist’. When you consider that Ha Long translates to ‘descending dragon’, this could very well be the mythical land of Honah Lee.

My friend Steph and I have arrived at the InterContinental Halong Bay Resort after a few days cruising through Lan Ha Bay, Ha Long’s equally beautiful but less-visited sister further south. With memories of kayaking past the dangling lines of oyster farms, learning how to shape the perfect fresh spring roll, cycling to the tiny fishing village of Viet Hai within Cat Ba National Park, and drifting past long-lived traditional fishing boats, we’re ready for some downtime. This is the perfect place for it.

The first sign that this is a resort with design at the forefront sits in the circle of the driveway – an intricate golden filigree sculpture resembling fan coral, with water tumbling from its base. Flanking the walkway leading to the charcoal and gold entrance, walls cascading with water end in a pair of koi ponds, dotted with greenery. Then inside, there’s a statement chandelier-like light fixture illuminating the lobby, the check-in desks set to the sides to make way for the view of the bay directly ahead.

The resort’s architecture, led by luxury hospitality architecture firm WATG, reflects the heritage of the region, weaving together narratives from ancient folklore and celebrating the interplay of land, sea, islands and inlets that forms Ha Long Bay’s natural beauty. This is extended by the selection of artworks across the property, all crafted by local artists. These include an arresting geological ink painting alluding to the karsts behind the concierge desk, a sculpted fisherman dangling a line into one of the swimming pools, and another resting on a roughly hewn crescent visible through the windows of the Marina Kitchen, one of several on-site dining establishments.

The interiors, conceived by international design firm P49Deesign, are equally evocative, given room to shine through extended ceiling heights, large picture windows and generously proportioned spaces. This extends to the 275 guestrooms, suites, private villas and residences. Our entry-level Classic Twin has a footprint of 53 square metres and it goes up from there – all the way to the stunning oceanfront Halong Bay Villa that spans 565 square metres and has a private outdoor pool.

The colour palette across the resort highlights the striking colours of the land and sea, with turquoise blue upholstery, soft greys and timber and brass

accents, with playful textures reminiscent of fish scales, rippling water and iridescent pearls. With all rooms facing the bay, it draws the outside in, so the room becomes an extension of the landscape.

Ensconced in our room, I leave Steph to make the most of our deep bathtub, which benefits from sliding doors that open to the room for a soak with a view. Making my way to the Hidden Lagoon Spa, I unintentionally take a circuitous route that leads me outside, past a waterfall, through a rocky garden, and along timber-framed walkways bordered with running water. Water, it seems, is ever-present here.

Sitting in the calm sanctuary that is the spa lobby, I peruse the treatments on offer. Hidden Lagoon is the sole spa in Northern Vietnam to offer an MLX Quartz sand bed, which is tempting, but after sweating through a volcanic sand bath in Japan, I’m unsure of my heat tolerance. Instead, I opt for a massage that promises to ease tension through a combination of Swedish and Vietnamese techniques. A gong chimes as my therapist, Ha, leads me into the treatment room for a delicious hour of kneading, stretching and soothing, after which I retire to the relaxation room and nibble on dried dragon fruit to accompany my apple and ginger tea.

The stunning rooftop space is part fine-dining Japanese restaurant, part sake library and cocktail bar.

Rested and rejuvenated, we later make our way to the newly opened Roku & Star Bar. The stunning rooftop space is part fine-dining Japanese restaurant, part sake library and cocktail bar. We lean on the bar, watching the bartender craft cocktails with creativity and precision, balancing delicate wafers topped

with sugared gel and tiny flowers on the edge of the glasses. Steph’s Indigo Reverie – a combination of Vietnamese vodka, ume, shiso and butterfly pea – comes in a tall glass that sits on an illuminated wooden base, the beverage appearing to glow from within. My choice, Celestial Ember, is an intriguing blend of rum, sweet potato and smoked chilli honey, topped with a frothy layer of espuma that makes me think of Vietnamese egg coffee with a spicy edge.

Ha Long has a way of distorting time, of calming haste and making ambitious itineraries feel beside the point. Here, cradled between water and sky, it feels natural to pause.

Savouring our beverages, delightfully content, we sit facing the bay of the descending dragon as the sky slowly darkens. In the distance, pinpricks of light hint at boats chugging their way to their overnight mooring spots. We enjoyed our time on the water, but it’s cold outside and the cocktails are warming us from within. It is with some reluctance several hours later that we slide from our perches in search of a light dinner before bed.

Arriving at Marina Kitchen in the morning, we are offered a window table that looks over the beach to the water, still milky on this overcast day. We linger over breakfast, grazing from the most extensive

buffet known to man, sipping Vietnamese coffee while quietly humming ‘Puff, the Magic Dragon’. We’re on holiday after all, with nowhere else we need to be. Ha Long has a way of distorting time, of calming haste and making ambitious itineraries feel beside the point. Here, cradled between water and sky, it feels natural to pause.

Later, we’ll need to decide how to fill our day; perhaps a stroll along the beach, or a hike up Bai Tho Mountain, stopping in at nearby Bao Hai Linh Thong Pagoda. We could ride the cable car at the Sun World Ha Long amusement park. A little further afield, we could visit Yoko Onsen to take a dip in the Japanese-style mineral baths in the Quang Hanh valley, surrounded by green forests and mountains. Or, we could just stay right here and breathe in a landscape crafted over millennia.

InterContinental Halong Bay Resort is the first international luxury beachfront resort in Ha Long Bay. Blending Vietnamese heritage with exceptional hospitality, the resort features 174 guest rooms and suites, 60 residences and 41 private villas, all offering enviable views of the bay. The resort also has a signature spa, three outdoor pools, Planet Trekkers Kids’ Club, a fully equipped fitness centre and six dining venues.

HAVEN

INDULGE IN IBIZA

Wellness, world-class cuisine, art and a liberal splash of Spanish charm elevate the Ibiza Gran Hotel beyond the sum of its parts.

Overlookingthe Mediterranean from a privileged position beside Marina Ibiza, Ibiza Gran Hotel is a quietly confident counterpoint to the island’s more hedonistic offerings. This is Ibiza distilled into its most polished form: contemporary, cultured and deeply rooted in local character. Glamour is present, certainly, but it is balanced by a sense of restraint and local charm that feels entirely its own. Take, for example, the art on display across the hotel, which has involved more than 30 contemporary artists, creating harmony between life, art and architecture.

The hotel is home to 187 generously proportioned rooms and suites, each designed to cocoon guests in calmness between time spent exploring the island or by the pool. Interiors are sleek and understated, allowing light and space to take centre stage. Views of the Old Town or ocean, terraces and private pools are just some of the possible combinations designed to contribute to an unforgettable escape.

Dining is central to the hotel’s identity, led by its Michelin-starred flagship, La Gaia. Helmed by chef Óscar Molina, the restaurant recently reaffirmed

its status following a redesign by Sandra Tarruella Studios. Vaulted ceilings and softly sculpted lime-plaster arches set the tone for a classically contemporary dining room that complements the new menu, rooted in Mediterranean flavours and Ibizan heritage.

Wellness unfolds at a slower pace, as it should, in the recently renovated Open Spa. This 1,300-squaremetre sanctuary is split into four distinct zones–Rituals, Aqua Spa, Gym & Wellness, and Open Beauty–each offering relaxation, rejuvenation and a range of bespoke treatments.

Beyond its walls, the hotel curates a programme of experiences that reveals the island’s many layers. Think private art tours and vineyard visits, yacht charters and personalised wellness journeys, with each experience forging a deeper connection with Ibiza’s cultural and creative pulse.

This is Ibiza in a whole new luxurious light.

SANCTUARY

WHERE SOUND FLOATS

A new floating sound bath experience at Langdale Hotel invites guests to surrender to stillness in the heart of the Lake District. Here’s how water and sound waves soothe body and mind.

It’s dark outside, a light breeze whispering through the trees, while inside, the lights have been dimmed. You’re lying on an inflatable bed, your head resting on an airfilled pillow. Eyes closed, you slowly drift around the warm-water pool. Surrounded by gentle vibrations and resonant tones, your body is comfortably cradled while sound waves ripple through you, inviting deep relaxation, emotional release and energetic balance. You take a deep breath and feel a profound sense of calm flood your senses, the floating sound bath soothing your soul.

The floating sound baths are a new offering from Langdale Hotel in the Lake District. The almost monthly restorative wellness experience is centred on a ritual that combines warm-water buoyancy and therapeutic sound in a one-hour evening session designed to soothe body and mind.

The Langdale Hotel sits deep within the Langdale Valley on an estate that spans some 35 acres. This is a landscape defined by its quiet drama: steep fells, shifting light and pockets of ancient woodland. And while it may be a region where wellness has historically taken the form of fell walks, cold-water dips and lungfuls of bracing air, there’s something to be said for slowing down and indulging in some serious ‘me’ time.

The floating sound bath ritual takes place in the hotel’s indoor pool after hours. The lighting is softened and participants are gently guided onto the inflatable beds and set adrift. There are no instructions to ‘do’ anything – no breath counts to follow, no poses to hold, no inner light to imagine. Instead, the emphasis is on passive immersion guided by the chimes of the crystal singing bowls. The hour quietly passes, ushering participants towards that liminal state between wakefulness and sleep.

Long after you’ve left the pool, the resonance travels with you: in slower breaths, quieter thoughts and languorous movement.

For those wanting to extend the wellness thread, Brimstone Spa, an on-site adults-only spa considered to be one of the best in the Lake District, offers a more expansive thermal experience alongside a range of spa treatments. The tailored spa journey includes three hours of access to seven thermal experiences and individual relaxation areas, including your choice of salt inhalation bag to personalise the moment. Created for optimal rejuvenation and wellbeing benefits, the journey leads through each element of the spa, from the indoor relaxation pool, where jets and fountains massage and stimulate, to the swan-neck water fountain, mineral steam bath and an array of saunas.

Understandably, this may leave you peckish, but that’s been thought of too. The thermal experience includes a Spa Deli platter for sustenance. The Spa Deli is an informal space available exclusively to spa guests. It offers replenishment that ranges from smoothies full of healthy goodness to a selection of tasty mezze platters.

If you’re keen to make a weekend of it, the on-site Langdale Hotel offers a range of spa packages that weave these experiences into a longer stay, while the sister Brimstone Hotel includes spa access within its boutique-luxe offering. Dining is similarly well considered. Stove Restaurant serves modern Cumbrian dishes that draw on regional produce without veering into formality, while Wainwrights’ Inn provides the comforting counterpoint of a traditional Lakeland pub – low beams, local ales and fireside corners made for post-treatment languor. For those wanting greater independence, there is a collection of self-catering properties scattered across the estate.

Whether staying overnight or simply visiting for the evening, the layering of experiences feels intentional rather than indulgent. The thermal journey eases the body into a relaxed state; spa treatments work deeper still; and good food and fresh air do their quiet work in the background.

Yet it is the floating sound bath that gives the most with the least. There are no oils or accoutrements, no actions or reactions – just the sensation of being weightlessly cradled and soothed into submission. Long after you’ve left the pool, the resonance travels with you: in slower breaths, quieter thoughts and languorous movement. Water meets sound just as lake meets fell, each amplifying the other’s restorative qualities. Perhaps that’s its real power.
