Best travel agent we have used
Jo has been our go to Agent for about 18 months, since a friend recommend her.
Jo has booked 4 holidays in that time, family and couples holidays.
Her recommendations and prices are great, she spends so much time ensuring everything suits out requirements and always gives us plenty of choice.
Nothing is too much effort for her and we appreciate the time and effort she spends on every booking.
She's a credit to Hays Travel group.
I'd highly recommend contacting her for any holiday requirements.
Thanks Jo for all your hard work.

Hi Linda, thankyou so much for the positive feedback, have a lovely holiday which I know you will
Aye she awrite as we say in Scotland.!
Aye she awrite as we say in Scotland.!
She's only managed to organise our 2x a year holidays to an absolute ☆☆☆☆☆ experience for my wife and myself, we have built up a relationship to where Joanne totally understands what we need and want from a holiday,
with our expectations of...! 1.. I don't do 7 nights ever ever ever...!
2..we always need extra legroom seats to and from our destination.
3. We always are given the best prices to anything we can find on our own.
4. We would always have the preference of a sea view or a side sea view.! to enhance our holiday experience.
We have used jo for many a year now and would say that you give her a go to find you the best experience possible. Or just book a caravan in the worst case.
😆 🤣 😂
Cheers jo
