If you want to carve out time in nature, to relax and run wild, then fall asleep smelling of woodsmoke in the comfiest of beds in a luxury Persian yurt, the new Go Wild break is ideal. It encourages adults and kids to enjoy nature with no Wi-Fi or TV, and since the accommodation is off-grid, it’s the perfect place to escape from the stresses of everyday life. To book or for more information, visit www.penhein.co.uk SAY YES TO THE DRESS To celebrate All About Eve’s 20th birthday, the bridal boutique is undergoing a ‘glow up’, to create the ultimate wedding dress shopping experience.
