### BOOK A CITY BREAK: *Soho House Paris*

Ready for a cool city break? Soho House has just opened a new outpost in Paris. Located in Pigalle, the House is set in a 19th-century apartment building that has been carefully restored with a mixture of traditional French design and Soho House’s signature flair. There are 36 individually designed rooms – we’ve got our eye on the Attic rooms which have great city views – as well as a cabaret room for live music, a courtyard, a Club Room and a heated outdoor pool. You do need to be a member to visit, but the dreamy interiors alone are well worth the membership fee.

### CAMP UNDER THE STARS: *Hipcamp*

From November, fully vaccinated travellers from the UK will be allowed to visit the US again. If you’re planning a road trip or want to see some of America’s best national parks, Hipcamp is the platform to know about. The site has an extensive range of properties and campervans to choose from, whether you want to stay in a luxury cabin or camp under the stars in the mountains. You can also select properties and campsites available ‘tonight’, ‘at the weekend’ or ‘near me’ – ideal for last-minute planners.

### PLAN A FAMILY GETAWAY: *Accoya, Norfolk*

Regular SLMan readers will know we're big fans of Kip Hideaways, which has an extensive portfolio of cabins and cottages around the UK. Its newest addition comes in the form of Accoya, a stylish three-bedroom cabin near the north Norfolk coast. Ideal for families or groups, the cabin sleeps up to six across three double bedrooms. There’s also a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious living area with an indoor wood burner and two bathrooms. Guests can explore the surrounding area and venture to nearby Cromer and Wells-next-the-Sea.

### BOOKMARK THIS FOR LATER: *Turing Locke*, *Cambridge*

Aparthotel brand Locke already has eight properties, including the new Kingsland Locke in Dalston, so we were excited to hear it’s opening a ninth in Cambridge. Set to open at the beginning of next year, the property will be part of Cambridge’s latest neighbourhood development, Eddington. Just a ten-minute bike ride from the city centre, there will be 180 one and two-bedroom apartments to choose from, each with its own fully fitted kitchen, living area and dining space. Guests will also have access to a restaurant, cocktail bar, coffee shop, co-working area, gym and rooftop terrace. An affordable way to explore the city, guests can stay for just £80 per night until 31st January 2022 – simply enter the code ‘HELLOCAMBRIDGE’ at the checkout.

Gleneagles has launched a wellness partnership with Rosemary Ferguson. To celebrate the wider relaunch of Gleneagles Spa, the nutritionist and naturopath is hosting a series of retreats taking place in November, and January and March 2022.

Airbnb has created its first gift card, which can be used across all properties on the platform, as well as experiences which includes everything from London theatre tours and craft workshops to cocktail making classes. Available to purchase online from Tuesday 9th November, we recommend looking through Airbnb’s ‘Most Wishlisted’ selection, which features some of the platform’s top UK properties – we like the look of the Buzzardry treehouse.

### TRAVEL LIKE AN ICON: *Belmond British Pullman x Wes Anderson*

Luxury hotel group Belmond has teamed up with filmmaker Wes Anderson to make over one of the carriages that comprise Belmond’s classic British Pullman train. Inspired by the golden ages of cinema and travel, the ‘Cygnus’ carriage is loaded with vintage details in Anderson’s distinctive style. Tickets are selling very quickly, but your options for jumping aboard are still numerous: a round-trip from London Victoria this Sunday, including a five-course lunch (£485pp); a similar journey featuring champagne afternoon tea on Saturday the 30th (£450pp); or a midweek jaunt to Bath on Wednesday the 20th that includes bellini brunch and a four-course dinner (£610pp). Alternatively, charter the entire train and go wherever you want.
