Planning holidays for people who value a personal service
Gilly Bachelor
If you’re planning your next holiday you’ve come to the right place!
Hi, I’m Gilly Bachelor. Welcome to ‘our’ website, I say ‘our’ as I have an incredible team behind me with Stephanie my admin whizz and Zappa our Marketing pro plus the support team at Not Just Travel. Find out more about us here.
We are a travel agency, but we operate differently from an online holiday provider, or a high street travel agent as we offer a highly personalised service. However, you can be assured you’re in safe hands as we work under the umbrella of Hays Travel as part of Not Just Travel.
Everything we book is ABTA and ATOL protected.
Find out more about how we work, and why clients choose to book their holidays with us.
We are based in a lovely office in Brewood (ST19 9LT) where you can visit by appointment, or if you’re not local, we offer video meetings and calls.
Book your appointment today.
