Potts Point Apartment

Posted on Tue, 27 Sep 2016 by midcenturyjo

I love Potts Point. I think it’s my favourite Sydney suburb. Full of history, close to the action and with that frisson of seediness meets money. The perfect base for exploring the harbour city. Now if I could just organise a few days away instead of daydreaming in front of my computer screen I might just have to stay in this fabulous apartment available through Contemporary Hotels. A stylish marriage of old and new.

Villa Anouk

Posted on Tue, 20 Sep 2016 by midcenturyjo

It’s only Tuesday and I’m dreaming and scheming of an escape from my desk. Just outside the coastal town of Essaouira in Morocco, Villa Anouk is a magical getaway from the chaos of everyday life. Join me?

Weekend getaway

Posted on Fri, 9 Sep 2016 by midcenturyjo

In my dreams you’ll find me here, kicking off my weekday worries at the door like a pair of shoes. My hardest decision at this Palm Beach house on Sydney’s Northern Beaches would be whether to stay in or venture down to the village or perhaps to one of the two beaches just minutes from the door. In my dreams life is really tough. You don’t have to use your imagination though. The Pavilion House is available for holiday let through Contemporary Hotels.

Velvet Morning

Posted on Mon, 15 Aug 2016 by midcenturyjo

Think of accommodation options for your next stay in London and a canal barge in Maida Vale is not something that immediately springs to mind… until now. The Velvet Morning (great name) is a gorgeous 57 ft canal boat, with all the comforts of a cosy cottage. Wood burner, claw foot bath, white linens in your cosy cabin and the golden glow of wooden accents. Another fabulous holiday property available via The Plum Guide.

Bali escape

Posted on Tue, 2 Aug 2016 by midcenturyjo

I had planned this virtual Bali escape for days then this morning I heard the news that flights to the Indonesian island had been suspended due to volcanic ash clouds off shore. Oh no! We were all going to be lolling by the pool by the time this post went live. Fortunately we aren’t actually going. The volcano won’t actually spoil our trip. This is a virtual getaway after all. We can still plunge in the pool, shower outdoors and languidly lounge on all those built-in benches. Welcome to your Tuesday escape… Fella Villas.
