about

Great Friendship -|+ Great Adventures
We have been friends since childhood. Our mothers were good mates who shared ideas, recipes and a chat.
Over the years our friendship has survived distance and the busyness of bringing up our own children.
Both families have travelled together & apart, with & without children. And now occasionally with our grandchildren.
Much of the fun has been in planning and coordinating the trips ourselves. Our travels are more than just observing – we love to immerse ourselves in the local culture. Do rather than watch! Get on a bike, climb a mountain, learn a new skill, eat the local food and drink the wines.
Now we want to share this passion with like-minded people who are either time poor or just not sure where to start!

Cathy Allen
Cathy worked in the airline industry prior to having children.
Once becoming a full time Mum she put her hand to many ventures along the way to earn extra income to support the travel habit!
Now as a grandmother nothing much has changed - still travelling any chance she gets.
For the past 12 years Cathy has run a highly regarded B & B in the Highlands continually receiving 5 star ratings & brings this experience to Creative Escapes.
Christine Sanford
Christine trained in accounting and admin but made the change to running her own business in the Beauty Industry whilst the children were growing up. Travel rewards were included, which in turn created a desire to explore more of the world, more often.
Travel is now very much a part of anything she does.
Christine has had pleasure in letting her "home away from home" on the South Coast for the past 3 years and is now making it available for Creative Escapes.
