We don’t know about you but everytime we walk past the window of Gates Travel we can’t help but pop in and chat to the wonderful travel experts there who have a wealth of knowledge, and an uncanny way of being able to pick you out the perfect holiday!
When it comes to fashion the shops are teaming with bright prints, shorts, sandals and hats for all the family, but we know you’ve got that covered, instead we thought this blog could be all about the holiday essentials you can sometimes forget!
Plasters, aftersun, travel plug adaptors
So easily forgotten but so vital! Boots have you got you covered when it comes to practical travel essentials. They also have travel sickness tablets, neck pillows, hand wipes and a whole host of other really useful holiday items.
Kids activities, tiny sunglasses, headphones
Kids on planes = boredom but luckily Claire’s have loads (and we mean LOADS) of stuff to keep them entertained. They also have teeny tiny sunglasses to protect tiny eyes AND headphones for teenagers to protect YOUR ears.
Passport holders, keyrings, wet bikini bag
OK, so these might not seem like essentials but firstly passport holders help you to spot your passport in the depths of your bag…a keyring is always useful on holiday (especially in a rented apartment)…and now we know about bags designed especially for your wet swimwear we literally can’t do without one.
So there’s our round up of little essentials we so often forget, we hope it helps. Make sure to keep an eye on our Social Media pages for more ideas!
