I can’t remember when I was bitten by the travel bug. But the more I explore, the more of the world I want to see. Luckily, Paula, my wife, shares my passion for all things travel.

When we had our first child, Hollie, many people warned us that our lifestyle would change inasmuch as we wouldn’t be able to travel so much and, basically, wouldn’t want to. Well, that wasn’t the case. We proved that you can travel with kids and still have as much fun – if not more. Yes, there are practical issues to consider and that’s why a large chunk of this website is focused on family travel. So, if you want an honest, no-nonsense lowdown on hotels, theme parks, visitor attractions, places to eat, destinations, holiday parks and just about anything else travel-related, then Travellowdown.com is the place to come.

There is something for everyone on the site. Like lots of other parents, though, my wife and I have experienced first-hand how challenging it can be when trying to source self-catering properties or hotels that, for example, truly welcome kids rather than simply playing lip service to the need to make little ’uns feel appreciated just as much as adults.

Wherever you visit, it can be difficult separating the wheat from the chaff when it comes to the myriad theme parks, tourist attractions, hotels, self-catering options, restaurants, destinations et al. Costs, especially in staitened times, can seem prohibitive so you want to make sure you pick the right places to visit and feel you’ve enjoyed value for money. Here at Travellowdown.com, we want to help you do that, whether you’re a sole traveller, heading off on a welcome break with your partner or, as already mentioned, a family – like us – planning a much-needed holiday.

Such a site is forever evolving and we appreciate comments or suggestions about the content or reviews; perhaps there is something, whether it be a hotel or travel product, that you think we should include: if so, tell us.

If you own or represent a hotel, B&B, self-catering property, campsite, visitor attraction, destination or anything else travel-related and think we should feature it on the website, we’d be delighted to hear from you. We’ve already worked with a great number of travel clients, including Visit Madeira, Goteborg.com, Visit Helsinki, Travelodge, Premier Inn, The Inn Collection Group, Visit Northumberland, Go Lakes, Condor Ferries, Eurocamp, YHA and HF Holidays.
