On Saturday we tried out Co Wheels, a car sharing club with several vehicles ideally situated in Tunbridge Wells and available for as little as £5 an hour. We picked up our Toyota Yaris on Mount Ephraim Road, an automatic hybrid. With one tap of our key card the doors opened and we set off effortlessly - it was that simple!

We recently spoke to Chris Macdonald who moved to Tunbridge Wells in 2020 to work as a plastic surgeon at Purity Bridge on Mount Ephraim. He has dedicated his career to helping people improve their confidence and mental health through a variety of procedures. We talk about the benefits and risks of surgery and his love of local history…

This International Women’s Day we celebrate just some of the very extraordinary individuals living and working within Tunbridge Wells and surrounding areas. Discover more about them, what inspires them, and what drives them to make positive changes for the greater good.

Beautiful, well-executed, and thoughtfully designed, we love the homes created by local building company, AMLY. We talk to the Founder, Alex Campbell-Lloyd about navigating a home renovation in a pandemic, how he started in the construction industry, and why it' is so important to have a devoted team of professionals around him….

The news last night that lockdown restrictions are set to ease on the 2nd of December was a welcome one! We’ve missed the spontaneity of dining out when the mood takes us and we’ve especially missed one of our favourites, Sankey’s.

To get through what is hopefully our last weekend in lockdown (is that too hopeful?!) we’ll be trying this delicious recipe to recreate the magic that only comes when dining on The Pantiles.

We can all agree that this year has been a weird one. However, the promise of Christmas is like the light at the end of the tunnel, and one that I am keen to speed ahead to.

Our local shops have suffered massively over the past few months, so with that in mind, We pledge to make a greater effort to shop locally. To support our high street businesses and champion the artisans.

Thinking of doing the same? To help, We've pulled together a handful of smaller businesses based in Kent, that offer high quality and unique products.

It’s tough right now and more than anything we all just want to support each other and get through this time. Please reach out if you need anything, don’t suffer alone - we can connect people and businesses as and when required. With that in mind, we’ve set up ‘Pay it forward’.

It’s simple, genuine offers of support and kindness that will bring positivity and happiness to another person, no money changes hands and we will highlight anyone offering a good deed. Here’s how you get involved...

The TN Card launched in February this year, a local loyalty scheme designed to reward its customers and bring our community together. It’s Founder, Jess Gibson is passionate about bringing independent businesses and individuals together by highlighting unique offers, new brands, and products. We met Jess to chat about her business, its mission, and where she’ll be shopping for Christmas gifts this year…

The beautiful thing about Instagram is that you can discover start-up brands like Delta of Phoenix who live and work just around the corner from you. I was immediately drawn to the frenzy of colour and bold shapes created by Fran on the Insta grid. Her style is unapologetically glam with body positivity at the forefront of everything she does. This girl is one to watch and we’re excited to see her new collections. We chat sustainability, the best beer garden in town and her plans for the future…

During lockdown, we’ve kept in touch with other local small business owners to see how they’ve been coping during the pandemic. Phoebe has inspired us with her tenacious attitude, creating a new range of online courses so she can share her creative skill set to a wider audience. We talk brunches at Juliet’s and why living in Tunbridge Wells is the best move she’s ever made….

We’ve long been admirers of Jane Bridgers ceramics, the local artist creates fluid shapes that conjure up a sense of calm and relaxation. Her craft is the result of years of practice, each piece she makes is completely unique and made in her Tunbridge Wells studio. We talk to her about lockdown life and what inspires her work…

This week we’ve been baking, trying to make something out of nothing with varying successes. With no self-raising flour in the house and no hope of finding it available in the shops, we turned to plain flour recipes.

We’ve rounded up some amazing outdoor places for you to escape to and get some much needed fresh air! Click the links to see the exact locations.

International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. Collectively, each one of us can help create a gender-equal world by choosing to challenge stereotypes, fight bias, broaden perceptions, improve situations and celebrate women's achievements.

We met Annika and Chris at their beautiful Victorian villa in St Johns, after purchasing the house two years ago they’ve just completed an impressive renovation of the kitchen/dining room. We chat interiors, weekend walks around the Pantiles and the best places in the world to ski!

In the first of our staycation series we explore the finest hotels, bed and breakfasts and accommodation in and around Tunbridge Wells.
