A Winter Scotland Getaway, Innes House Behind the Scenes, and My New Favourite Find (Weekly Vlog)
This week, we packed up the car and headed north for a proper Scotland road trip, and it was just what we needed. I’m sharing the long drive with Sigh, what I managed to squeeze into a small handbag, and the make-up bits I took with me for a few cosy evenings away.
The real highlight was our stay at Innes House, a truly special place with so much history and atmosphere. I sat down with owner and friend Ed to chat through the story of the house, what you can book there, and how it all works. There was plenty of fresh air, beautiful food, a wander around the grounds, and the perfect final morning at a skatepark before we headed back to Sussex.
Once I’m home, I’m sharing a new bathroom staple I’ve been quietly testing for weeks and have been genuinely impressed by, one of those everyday things that turns out to be far better than you expect!
Pop the kettle on and come and catch up on my past week.
Love, Charlie x
