    Best Hotels York UK: Top Rated Stays for Every Budget

    04/11/2026 - By 

    Are you looking for a place to stay in York that isn’t a damp basement or a soulless chain hotel three miles from the city walls? You should be.

    06/23/2025 - By 

    Athens can lay claim to being the seat of democracy – it’s the birthplace of modern politics. Its cultural heritage is no less impressive – the philosophers of ancient Greece still hold sway over the world of rational thought. Then there’s the food – simple but oh so tasty. And… it’s also not an expensive city, it’s easy to get around and the locals are definitely friendly. For all those reasons, and more, I decided it was time revisit a city I’d not seen for around 40 years. What immediately became clear is that I should have come back sooner.…
