Ten Great Reasons
Here’s ten great reasons why clients choose to book their holidays with us!
- We have a lovely office where you can sit down relax and discuss your travel plans, over a cuppa, or perhaps a glass of fizz if we’re celebrating. Just book an appointment – we can offer evening and weekend appointments if that’s more convenient for you.
- Our service is an attentive and personal one. We will look after you from the time of booking, right through to when you return home, making sure you comply with the prevailing travel restrictions and requirements… and you’re not the one turned away at the airline check-in counter!
- Some people love scouring the Internet, but if you don’t have the time to do this (or feel completely overwhelmed by what you’ve found!), we can really save you time.
- We’re easy to get hold of – always at the end of an email, call, WhatsApp, or Facebook Message, or of course you can book an appointment for a face-to-face get together.
- We can liaise with the airline, hotel, or resort if you have accessibility requirements, or you require special assistance. Or you may just have specific requirements that will make your holiday that little bit more enjoyable, and that’s fine too!
- We have a genuine passion for travel and finding the perfect holiday for you! There’s never any hard sell, if you go ahead and book that’s great, but if you don’t that’s fine too.
- We work with over 400 suppliers so we can offer a huge choice of holidays from traditional package holidays with companies like Jet2 Holidays to tailor-made itineraries with exclusive destination specialists.
- There’s no fee for our service, we get paid a commission by the supplier if you go ahead and book!
- We’re taking bookings up to the end of 2025 for people who want to secure something extra special, but also for those of you who want to spread your payments by direct debit.
- And of course, we’re ABTA-bonded and every holiday we sell has ATOL protection.

Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable travel expert!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently booked (again) with Gilly and her team and her advice was fantastic - we were getting overwhelmed with cruise choices and needed some good, impartial advice suited to our needs. Gilly found the perfect cruise (with great packages included in the price). We can't wait to travel having more confidence that we have booked the right holiday. Highly recommend for end to end customer service.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. "The organisation and logistics of this trip was seamless ! The wildlife and scenery sublime and the accommodation, service and dining second to none. A truly magical experience - thank you Gilly and team for your amazing inspiration and guidance.”Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We decided we wanted to dip our toe into the world of cruising but did not know where to start so we booked an appointment with Gilly who asked us questions about our likes and preferences with this information she recommended a cruise line which she felt best met our requirements. Gilly assisted in our cabin selection including choosing the actual cabin number! The service we received made plain ‘sailing’ in what at first to us looked like a minefield. Since booking we have received assistance from Stephanie in accessing the App for our cruise. All in all a wonderful service coupled with expert knowledge, highly recommendTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family have booked with Gilly multiple times and we can always promise a positive experience from start to end. As I have worked with Gilly and the team for the past 2 summers - this being the third, I get more of a behind the scenes than a usual client would, and I see the time and effort Gilly and Stephanie put into every individual and their needs. From making phone calls or researching additional needs, Gilly and the team have the more knowledge, first-hand experience and expertise in the industry than local competitors. Me and my family are going to Alcudia, Spain on Wednesday and the team have found an ideal location, with suitable activities and at a price which works for us. All of the paperwork has been organised and we have no worries at all as it has all been organised. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else! A lovely, hardworking team who help you organise, plan and enjoy trips of a lifetime.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gilly and her team are lovely friendly approachable people who arranged both our holidays in the comfort of their office . It was a non pushy sale which gave us plenty of time to browse and choose what was the best holiday for my family . Gilly goes above and beyond a normal travel agent and looks after you personally from choosing your holiday , to booking and looking after whilst you’re away . We are looking forward to going away shortly and then we’re looking forward to booking a bespoke holiday to Thailand next year. I’d thoroughly recommend Gilly to take the pressure and hassle out of booking your holidayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently booked our family holiday to Crete with Gilly Bachelor and we were delighted with the entire experience. From start to finish, the process was absolutely seamless. Every detail was taken care of, making it completely stress-free for us. The communication throughout was fantastic. Gilly took time to understand exactly what we were looking for and matched us with a resort that was perfect for our family. Her attention to detail was impressive, from flight times that were perfect to arranging our airport transfers. The resort itself exceeded our expectations. It was beautiful, family-friendly, and had all the amenities we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We truly felt like everything had been carefully planned with our needs in mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Gilly Bachelor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a smooth, well-organised holiday with a personal touch.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As always the confidence I have in Gilly and her fantastic team finding and booking our family holiday in second to none. Apart from joining us on holiday they are with us every step of the way!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gilly has helped me sort out a suitable holiday, after getting information on a customised trip, to making the booking on the one we chose. Looking forward to the holiday later this year.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was our first holiday organised by Gilly Bachelor, the pre flight information was useful and the pre booked seats on the plane always help. We can't fault the Reykjavik Centrum hotel in Iceland, the accommodation was very close to the city centre and near all the amenities. Breakfast was excellent and the hotel staff were very helpful. We really enjoyed our trips out, the highlight has to be seeing a humpback whale and the Northern Lights in the same day! Just a shame that our Golden Circle trip was in awful wind and rain. A very interesting and enjoyable holiday.
