What a year it has been!  Most importantly we hope that you and your loved ones are all well.

In between lockdowns we were able to organise a holiday in the Lake District for a family in need of a break away.  We were so pleased to be able to do this during this difficult year.  We are now in touch with our wonderful referrers and generous property owners and hope to be able to make more matches now that restrictions are slowly being lifted.  As ever our priority is to make sure that our guests and property owners are all kept safe.   We are actively looking for more properties so please do get in touch if you may able able to help.

More news to follow!

Due to the current guidelines, at the this time we are not arranging breaks away in beautiful places for our guests.  We look forward to a time when we can start taking referrals.  We hope that all our property owners, referrers, supporters and friends are safe and well.

Getting feedback like this makes us all the more determined to keep organising breaks for our guests…..

“Just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for arranging a wonderful time away for me and my family to enjoy in Northumberland. We had a wonderful time. The cottage was fantastic and in a wonderful position right near the beach. Dog had some excellent walks. We ate, drank, read and played games. The important thing was that we were altogether. I think what you do is fantastic and the homeowners are so generous. Also the yummy Keelham Farm Shop treats went down a treat. 
Thank you once again and take care”

Big thanks to Angela Keane, the owner of the property who was immensely reassuring and went the extra mile to make sure that the guests had a magical time.

We are keeping a very close eye on the Government guidance during this Coronavirus pandemic.  We hope that we will be able to start arranging breaks away in the near future but we are very aware of the difficulties faced by everyone at this time.

We hope that all our referrers, guests, property owners, supporters and friends are safe and well at this time and we send our best wishes to them all.
