Best serviced apartments in Edinburgh

Posted On by Travel the World

Being a contractor or a business traveller means that you might be required to live in various parts of the country for certain amount of time. This might be something many of us enjoy as living in various places can be an interesting experience.

When I travel for business what matters to me is the quality of the place I stay in. I don’t want to stay in just any hotel. On the contrary, I want to feel like I am at home even though I am away from home. This is all possible thanks to accommodation for contractors that are no other than short term lets that are high quality and that will ensure that you get to relax after a busy day.

I myself am planning to go to Edinburgh one day and hopefully stay there for a while. It’s been years since the last time I visited it. The city if absolutely fabulous with many interesting landmarks to see and various tourist attractions that are so great to experience. I am already wondering how it is to visit Edinburgh Castle this time of year straight before Christmas. I still remember being there in the middle of the summer many years ago, but I guess nothing beats the magic of Christmas.

If you plan on visiting Edinburgh any time soon, I recommend that you give the short term lets a try. They are a cheaper alternative to B&Bs and hotels, and they are guaranteed to impress even the most demanding of travellers. Feel free to look at the photos below that describe only some serviced apartments you are likely to find when you travel to Edinburgh. All of them are located in popular parts of the city with great transportation links. This is something that is worth considering while booking your next visit to this very exceptional part of the country.

And here is one more to consider:

Mykonos – A great destination all year round

Posted On by Travel the World

4

When it comes to travelling, most holidaymakers want a destination that offers it all, and with a wealth of different experiences to make memories from. If you’re looking for a destination that has it all, all year round, then Mykonos certainly should be on your wish list, so stick a pin in your map and find out all you need to know about this great holiday destination.

Culture and history

Like most of Greece, Mykonos is steeped in history and culture, and if you’re a fan of Greek mythology, then you’ll be right in the thick of it here. Legend has it that Hercules himself had something to do with its creation – throwing giants into the ocean to create the rocky island. If you’re interested in seeing a little history on your visit, then a trip to the castle of Gyzi, built in the 13th century is certainly a ‘must see’. On top of this, you’ll be able to take in the ruins of Mykonos’ previous incarnation, and even an 18th century church.

Relaxation on the beach

A break in Mykonos isn’t complete with a little relaxation by the sea, and if its stunning beaches with golden sand and a stunning azure blue sea you’re looking for, then you’re on to a winner. Whether you take a picnic and spend all day on the sands, or visit one of the plethora of beach bars and cafes to get a little shade (recommended – it gets very hot at the height of the day), you’re certain to love sun-worshipping here.

Dining out in Mykonos

A holiday is often all about the culinary delights and Mykonos doesn’t disappoint here either. Whether you choose fresh seafood delights, the famed Mykonos sausage (it really is as delicious as they say) or fancy some of the Island’s best-known cheese – Kopanisti – with bread, you’re sure to find your taste buds tantalised. Don’t forget the Ouzo to wash it down with either!

All year round entertainment

Of course, if you’re looking to visit Mykonos in the cooler months, you’ll want to know that you can still enjoy experiencing all the island has to offer. The good news is – you can. With a whole host of festivities happening all over the island, Christmas is actually a popular time to visit, with many of the cosmopolitan restaurant and bars getting into the spirit of the season by decorating their spaces and getting the outdoor heaters out of storage – although often, a warm jumper will suffice to keep the evening chill out.

Whatever you’re looking for in a holiday, and whatever time you’re looking to fly, considering Mykonos and all it has to offer is certainly likely to leave you sure you’ve made the right choice of destination.
