Down the River in Style with…
Les Bateaux Belmond, France

Choose from seven singular Belmond barges to call your private sanctuary, with all-inclusive feasts, an open bar, and the chance to fully customise an itinerary that rings true to your interests in each region. These serene waterways traverse through Burgundy, Champagne, Camargue, Canal du Midi and Provence, each offering enriching experiences such as hot-air ballooning, creating your own scent, exploring rustic villages by WWII jeeps and helicopter tours. Be one of the first to charter Coquelicot (meaning Poppy), an LVMH renovated barge for six lucky travellers, setting its inaugural sail in mid-May from Champagne. Maison Ruinart presents a ‘behind the scenes’ look at their viti-forestry project, as well as 5-course lunch paired with their prestige cuvées.

Let your Troubles Melt Away at…
Nay Palad Hideaway, Philippines

At this paradisiacal location in Siargao far from the madding crowds, fall deeply in love with the poetry and pace that Nay Palad has beautifully devised. From the moment you set foot on the powdery-soft sand, the access to their private bay, mangrove forests, legendary surf spots and serene aesthetic will immediately ease your worries as you sink into a world of barefoot luxury. Everything you desire and feast upon is included in the package, as well as open-top Jeepney adventures to deep-sea fishing and a newly-opened Village featuring a modern kitchen for cooking classes and sublime Spa experiences. Stay at the newest Coral Villa with its own home cinema, private dining pagoda and swimming pool.

Get Lost in the Jungle on a…
Brazilian Eco-Lodges Tour

Arriving at three boutique luxury lodges, this is a must for those who are keen on expanding their view on Conservation. Deep in the Cerrado savannah, kick off this epic adventure at Pousada Trijuncao where you’ll learn about rewilding, track maned wolves and cycle safari-style. From there, cross the Amazon rainforest by boat to Cristalino Lodge, spotting white-whiskered spider monkeys and native birds, with guided rainforest treks and kayaking on the agenda. Saving the best for last, Caiman’s Casa Caiman focuses on jaguar tracking, horse-riding, and learning more about blue hyacinth macaws. An impeccable trio that will surely heighten your senses and powers of observation.

Relish in a slower pace of life with…
Heckfield Place x Wildsmith, England

Launching just in time for Easter, simply and very thoughtfully put, “The Bothy is a space for us all to reconnect with nature. To alter and rebalance our perception of TIME. A special place in the landscape where time slows, and your rhythms are reset.” Wildsmith treatments have an all-encompassing approach to wellbeing and skin health, created with circadian rhythms in mind, while using high-performance formulations through the process of biotechnology and Radical Botany. Tucked behind the walled garden, expect unique naturopathic philosophy, thermal and hydrotherapies, woodland movement and forest bathing, and ceremonial sessions to reset and rejuvenate from the inside out.
