UKs most expensive golf course opens
Aug 9th
At £7 million, the new Carrick course at the De Vere Deluxe Resort at Cameron House on the shores of Loch Lomond is believed to be the most expensive ever constructed in the UK.
The Carrick is part of the De Vere Deluxe Resort at Cameron House which is currently undergoing a major upgrade and development, which includes The Carrick course, a new state-of-the-art luxury spa and a £25m refurbishment of the five star hotel itself.
Guests can travel to The Carrick by car or by boat onboard the beautiful 1937 launch, Belle Époque, from the hotel jetty. The boat journey takes golfers past the resort’s nature reserve which was created with the input of Scottish Natural Heritage and the RSPB and stretches over 100 acres.
The course fee at the Carrick at Cameron House is £100. For ladies and non-golfers there is also a spa open to day guests.

InterContinental group – good and bed news
Jul 26th
The InterContinental hotel group made it into the news twice last weekend – once with a good idea and once with a rather stupid one.
To start with the good one: The InterContinental Berchtesgaden introduced a new gadget called the InterContiButler. It is GPS device that guides you around the picturesque national park of Berchtesgaden.
The not so impressing news come from their property in Paris where a new spa treatment was launched. The bad news is for the planet as the used water is extracted from 3,000 ft near Bora Bora and leaves an immense carbon footprint until it reaches Paris, not to mention the sore of another rigging platform in the Pacific.
Hotel or tent for Reading festival
Jul 26th
If you are heading to Reading festival and are worried to be stuck in a tent on a rainy weekend (and jugding by this summer – the chances are very high!), you can avoid this by booking yourself a room in the new Malmaison in Reading. The hotel opened just recently and we know they haven’t started selling the rooms for the weekend of the Reading festival (24th – 26th August).
Check out their website www.malmaison.com or compare Malmaison Reading on sletoh.
NH hotels – smashing!
Jul 25th
Rock stars love to smash up hotel rooms and NH hotels recently let some lucky competition winners smash up one of theirs!!
30 winners were given sledge hammers and carte blanche to destroy an entire floor of an NH hotel in Spain that was in need of renovation. 200 stressed out punters applied but only 30 passed the psychological tests to run riot. I am next in line!
For pictures check out the BBC.
