Destinations
GLASGOW
Everyone’s talking about Six by
Nico, the restaurant that changes
theme every six weeks with a new,
six-course tasting menu. The recent
Vietnamese menu commenced with
Vietnam’s beloved Banh Mi sandwich
and concluded with a classic Vietnamese
coffee. The aim was to take guests on
a journey through the alleys of Hanoi to
the vibrant street food markets of Saigon,
providing an authentic experience.
EAST MI DLANDS
Get ready to celebrate Leicester’s
diverse cultures and experience
the traditions of the Caribbean at
the colourful Caribbean Carnival on
4th August. The event embraces all art
forms from Leicester’s diverse community
while at the same time ensuring that
the true meaning of the Caribbean
Carnival remains alive. Enjoy a huge
street parade through the city centre,
with costumed bands and multi-coloured
floats, then make your way up to Victoria
Park for food, drinks a fun fair and music
performances.
ED I NBURGH
The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo
from 3rd-25th August, features
performers from over 48 countries. This
year the Tattoo is embracing Scotland’s
Year of Young People with colourful
performers from across the globe,
including Switzerland’s Top Secret Drum
Corps, The Central Band of the Czech
Armed Forces and the Royal Air Force as
they mark their 100th Anniversary.
EXETER
Southernhay House Hotel is a luxurious
sanctuary in the heart of the city.
The first owner of this Grade-II listed
Georgian townhouse was Captain William
Kirkpatrick, an officer of the East India
Company. The 10 rooms are named after
trades synonymous with Exeter’s past as a
mercantile hub, so expect to stay in Silk,
Cotton, Ivory and Spice among others.
FARO
The Ilha Deserta is a remote sand
bar island south of Faro, which has
some of the most pristine and unspoilt
beaches found in the Algarve. There is
no tourist development on the island,
and along the six-mile shoreline of sand
dunes there is just a single building, an
exclusive restaurant, Estaminé, with fresh
fish and seafood a speciality. Portugal’s
most southerly point, the Cabo de Santa
Maria, is situated on the Ilha Deserta and
is marked by a monument of sea debris
and driftwood. On the lagoon side of the
island there are calm waters ideal
for snorkelling.
GENEVA
Just a short tram ride from the
centre of Geneva is Carouge, a
Mediterranean-style hamlet modelled
after Nice, which has become Geneva’s
hippest suburb. Known as ‘little Italy’, its
houses have painted shutters and red
roofs. Many of the neo-classical houses
and the inner courtyard gardens are well
preserved and have been converted
to boutiques, workshops, ateliers and
antique shops. There are plenty of bistros,
cafés and restaurants, plus art galleries
and studios, too, as well as a museum.
After dark, the area comes alive with jazz
bars and nightclubs.
