The Isle of Harris is a tiny island located just off the west of Scotland. The island is one of over 300 of small isles  which are referred to as the Outer Hebrides, although to be 100% correct the UK postal address is the Western Isles. Known as either the Western Isles or the Outer Hebrides the islands are breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly unique. For tourists who enjoy relaxing on a golden sandy beach Harris has plenty to choose from and all are wonderful and frequently deserted. It would seem as though beyond turn you are met with an awesome sight. The Isle of Harris roads are not the same as elsewhere in Britain single track roads are very common and you will often be forced to used passing places to let oncoming traffic past and also let traffic from behind to pass too. All you really need to do is pull over to the left of the road. But, If it is an extremely large vehicle wishing to pass and the passing place is on your right you may move over into it to let the big vehicle pass more easily but at all times be careful not to drive off the edge of the road too much.

One of the main reasons folk visit the Isle of Harris is to enjoy the the culture and landscape of the Isles. The Isle of Harris culture has, through the generations been powerfully influenced by the Norse, Celtic, Scottish and English races. Today in general most people speak in the Gaelic language and though many speak English, it is often their 2nd language. The inhabitants of the Isle of Harris are amongst the friendliest on the planet and their hospitality is well known across the globe. The Harris folk are justifiably proud of the immensely beautiful Harris countryside and go to some length to keep the place clean and tidy so it is crucially important to clear up any of your litter.

Dotted along the south west coast of the Isle of Harris you will discover some of the most breath takingly beautiful golden sandy beaches in the whole of Scotland, and it could be said the whole of the United Kingdom. You will notice that the waters are very clear and it is true to say that the Isle of Harris beaches are incredibly clean. Sadly there is no way to avoid debris washing up from Atlantic shipping but thankfully there isn’t alot.

Bournemouth is located right on the coast in the South of England, about 100 miles away from of London. The largest town on the south coast, Bournemouth, is famous for its seven miles of spectacular golden beaches and sparkling deep blue sea. It is Bournemouth’s superb situation that caused it to be a popular UK holiday destination since the start of the nineteenth century. It is nigh on impossible to envisage that in and around Bournemouth was,  in the early 19th century, largely a barren and remote heathland mainly consisting of common grazing with the exception of the estate of Sir George Ivison Tapps. The Tapps Arms, a public house, appeared on the heathland in 1809, a couple of years after this, in the year 1812, the first people moved in.

Lewis Tregonwell and his wife purchased a little land, from Sir George Ivison Tapps, upon which they constructed a series of villas looking out to sea with the intention of letting them to visitors in the summer months for holidays. Tregonwell also built themselves a summerhouse. and also started to plant a huge amount of pine trees, making a beautiful sheltered walkway leading to the beach, , which was later called the Invalid’s walk.

Since those early days the popularity of Bournemouth, as a resort by the sea, has continuously increased, and today, it has become known as a tourist haven for fun, culture, recreation, leisure and entertainment. Places which prove very popular to visit include; Bournemouth Pier, the graveyard of St. Peters Church, the Russel-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum and  the award winning Central Gardens.

If you and your family are currently deciding upon taking a break in the city of  Bournemouth it is incredibly important that you book your  rooms as early as possible as, sadly Bournemouth hotels and guest houses tend to be alarmingly busy and are commonly fully booked well in advance. If you are a large group you might find that serviced apartments in Bournemouth are a reasonable option to bed & breakfast in Bournemouth.

Another element that probably has had an influence is low interest rates. Utility bills have been reduced, mortgage rates are at a low point and food costs are at a reasonable level also. This adds up to quite a lot of savings and means people have more money to fork out for their leisure activities.The Caribbean and Mediterranean are proving to be very popular at the moment and people seem to be choosing beach holidays that are not as active where they can just chill out. Holidays that are all inclusive are proving popular also.

Although bookings for TUI are down 7% on this time last year, they are much more healthy than the 18% drop they have been suffering the rest of the year.  They have sold 93% of their winter holidays because despite the worst performing market currently being the Nordic region, holidays to Canada have been doing very well

TUI has said that this pick up represents a general improving trend in holiday sales. By the end of this holiday season we predict that purchasing levels will rise up to their previous levels the market regains strength.
