A few travel tips from around the Web

Good article by my brother Alex on TripHunter He dives into some of the best "travel hacks" out there - The best airlines for getting frequent flier upgrades, General travel tips, Getting comfortable in cattle class etc. etc.

I'm looking forward to the next post on how to get a free upgrade! I've tried countless times (with mixed success)

Qype: The Sussex in London

London - Eating & Drinking - Pubs & Bars - Pubs


This pub is a good people watching spot if you can get a seat outside. You're in the heart of Covent garden here, so plenty look at. The interior is fairly generic and don't expect Michelin star cooking. I suppose this pub does what it says on the tin - cold lager, reasonably friendly folk and a standard (perhaps a bit touristy) menu. Speaking of which, think twice about going here in August. This place is heaving during the summer months!

Qype: Napket Hanover Square in London

London - Eating & Drinking - Restaurants


Not quite as good as the Napket around the corner in Mayfair (no salad bar) but still a decent place to grab a sandwich. It's expensive in here, but i've always found the food to be fresh and tasty. Expect to pay £6-7 for a sandwich and a drink.

Qype: Dale Hill Golf Club (The Woosnam Course) in Wadhurst

Wadhurst - Sport - Golf


Built in 1997, the Ian Woosnam course at Dale Hill is one of the finest 18 hole golf courses in Kent. The course itself is challenging, but not ridiculously so. Expect a number of lengthy, challenging Par 4s and 5s and 3-4 tight, but very pretty Par 3's.

According to Woosnam, "The course has been designed to have the perfect balance - tough enough for the pros and easy enough for the amateurs - and can be enjoyed by all."

A round here on a weekend will set you back £45 and buggies are included in this price. The course is open to the public and booking a tee time is compulsory on this course and definitely advised on the Old Course. Is it worth it? Definitely. I want to come back next weekend!

New Travel Blog

My brother and I have been talking about setting up a travel blog for ages and we're finally getting round to actually doing it. TripHunter will start its life as a travel blog - experiences, deals, funny stories, advice etc. and might (one day) evolve into something bigger and more interactive. We hope to get the first post up in the next couple of days, so happy reading and please let us know if there are any particular destinations or travel topics you'd like us to cover!
