Fancy a Grown-Up Getaway?

by Robert Michael Poole

With the children at home until at least March and cabin fever setting in, The Sunday Telegraph reveals the world's finest adults-only escapes for when we can travel again. Go on - you deserve it!

Of course, we all love children. Especially on holiday. Their happy, sun-tanned faces, Their excited squeals. Their wide-eyed wonder. But… maybe after weeks and weeks of lockdown, the hours and hours of home schooling and the general claustrophobia, we could all do with a break.

Off the Chain in the Seychelles

by Robert Michael Poole


Modern tourism, pristine beaches, rare animals and environmental protection all meet in the SEYCHELLES, some 1,500 km east of the mainland.

FLYING DUE east from Nairobi to the Seychelles islands, my imagination is filled with vibrant Technicolor images of exotic nature and landscapes, and luxurious resorts overlooking some of the world’s finest palm-fringed beaches.
