Year: 2018

California

Belmond El Encanto, Santa Barbara

December 29, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 1

The list of loyal clientele at the Belmond El Encanto reads more like Hollywood royalty, than nouveau riche…Streisand and Gable, rather than Kardashian. The seven-acre property possesses a sense of grandeur dating back the golden […]

England

Middlethorpe Hall and Spa

December 22, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 0

On this trip I ventured into the wilds of Yorkshire and experienced a level of comfort rarely found at Middlethorpe Hall and Spa, a destination country house hotel that offers old school charm and an […]

California

Maple at Descanso Gardens

December 17, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 23

Something about dining beneath those towering timbers, that foliage that won’t quit, that soaring A-frame ceiling, it’s the makings of a meal within a meadow laden fantasy.  The newly refreshed Maple at Descanso Gardens in […]

Asia

A Tour and A Tale of Two Koreas

December 14, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 0

The easiest way to visit the DMZ is through an organized tour. I’ve chosen VIP Tours, based in Seoul, because they’re locally owned. No one goes in or out without registering in advance and passports […]

Jabra Active 65t: No Strings On Me

November 19, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 0

I opened an email a few weeks ago and instantly got cramp, not because I was sitting awkwardly, but because the London Marathon ballot had been drawn and I am one of the lucky participants. […]

How do hummingbirds manage to stay in place? The answer is they hover in mid-air by flapping their wings at a rate of 50 to 80 beats per second. They also visit between 2000 and […]

Southern Sicily – Discovering Pizzolo

November 6, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 0

As you know dear readers, I have had some tough gigs in my time, flying to Beijing to test a new aircraft (particularly hard jetlag wise), 17 course tasting menus and off-roading across northern Argentina […]

England

South Lodge Hotel

October 28, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 0

Less than an hour’s journey from London by train, I looked forward to a weekend stay at South Lodge Hotel in Horsham. From perusing the photos, I could not wait to explore the beautiful manor […]

Europe

Groningen – A Gastro Heaven

October 19, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 0

As luck would have it I found myself with a spare couples of days and a yearning for culinary escape from these shores.  Following my nose has always served me good stead in the past […]

Hotels

Wequassett Resort and Golf Club

September 30, 2018 Our Man On The Ground 0

I have a distinct weakness for destinations that speak summer so majestically they give you actual pause.  The ones that take every element of sensory seduction the season so effortlessly provides and host a haven […]
