Places I would Love to Visit Friday | 3

Wow I can't believe it is my third places I would love to visit Friday already! How time flies!

This week I wanted to choose somewhere a little closer to home, somewhere relaxing, down to earth and with a spa! So I chose...


A stunning hotel in a remote part of Scotland. The Isle or Eriska, located not far from Oban airport on the West coast of Scotland.

There is something homely about this traditional hotel. It has a fabulous history in a remote location and I can imagine would make you feel very relaxed!



Serene and tranquil. No noise or hustle and bustle. What could be more relaxing than turning off your phone and enjoying the scenery and sounds of nature. Gorgeous at any time of the year!




Just imagine sitting infront of the fire here with a book and a glass of wine (or hot chocolate for me) It really doesn't get more traditionally Scottish than this :-) 



Looking for a luxury 5 star hotel and Spa in Scotland? I think this could be what you are looking for.




What do you think?

Places I would Love to Visit Friday | 2

Have you ever seen the film The Retreat? With vince vaughn? Aside from it being really funny I love the location where it is shot. So for my 2nd Places I would love to visit Friday I bring you Bora Bora :-)





Bora Bora is an island in the Pacific Ocean. I am not a massive fan of the ocean, perhaps that comes from watching Jaws, but. Here it looks so beautiful and blue I would love to dive straight in.


There are a few resorts on the island but I have chosen the Four Seasons. It has a Spa, fitness centre, restaurants, plunge pools. Pure heaven! The more I look at the photos the more I dream of going there.









The Four Seasons Bora Bora was featured on the Real Housewives of Orand County.

 Another beautiful resort on the island, the Hilton Nui Resort, was featured on the tv show Keeping up with the Kardashians.

Just imagine waking up in the morning and walking out on to the deck to this!



What do you think? Would you like to visit Bora Bora?

Places I Would Love to Visit Friday | 1

I have decided to start a new Friday blogging ritual named "Places I would love to visit Friday". It can be a restaurant, a hotel, an island... so starting with my very first one...

... how exciting!!!



I have been admiring this beautiful location for years. It has so many things I love roled in to one snow, wrapping up warm, huskies, beautiful scenery, sledding, horse trails, skiing the list goes on.

To spend the night at ICEHOTEL is an experience - and not like any other hotel stay. You sleep in a thermal sleeping bag on a bed built by ice blocks, a wooden frame, mattress and it is topped with reindeer skins. Surrounded by art work made of ice and snow, by artists from all over the world. In the morning you will be awakened with a cup of hot lingonberry juice. - Sounds amazing!!

 

 You can even get married there!



 


Not only is Icehotel a beautiful place to visit, it is a remarkable feat of workmanship. It melts and is rebuilt every year! Truly Amazing.

           




Have you or anyone you know been there?
