BELFAST & DUBLIN, IRELAND

Published by Nicole Isaacs

I’m finally catching up on posting about my travels. I’ve had a crazy couple of months with work because of award season and fashion weeks! Sorry for the delay. I want to make sure I’m all caught up before leaving again for my next big trip! I visited Ireland during Christmas this past December. I flew from Edinburgh, Scotland to Belfast which is an easy 45 minute flight. I stayed at the Culloden Estate & Spa in Northern Ireland located in the Holywood Hills overlooking Belfast City and the Antrim coastline. Unfortunately the city of Belfast was shut down because of Christmas Eve but I did book a private Game of Thrones Tour which took us up the coast of Northern Ireland and showed us all the main areas where they film the show which was so incredibly awesome!

LONDON TOWN|CORINTHIA HOTEL

Published by Nicole Isaacs

London during the Holidays is amazing. The city is filled with beautiful lights and festive decorations, christmas markets, and the streets are buzzing with holiday shoppers and beautiful store fronts. It felt very similar to New York during the Holidays, but with a bit more charm and architecturally more aesthetic. I spent a couple days there, but my outings were mostly at night hosting events and parties. We did take a London City tour one day which took us to all the famous London sights like Buckingham Palace, The London Bridge, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Big Ben, Tower of London, The London Eye & The National Gallery. We visited BBC Radio headquarters as well as the Tim Westwood radio station which was an experience. I had to make a stop at the famous Harrod’s to do a little shopping as well. I stayed at the Corinthia Hotel which I highly recommend. The hotel is exquisite, and the spa (ESPA Life), is exceptional. This was my 2nd visit to London, and I will be back soon!
