In the 20 years that I have worked in the travel industry, I have never lost my excitement over planning dream holidays for my customers. I enjoy looking at all the holiday pictures, and of course, getting the wonderful feedback from clients.

I first began as a rep in Benidorm and Gran Canaria before moving back home to work for independent agencies. For the past 8 years, I have been specialising in cruises, including river cruises. Being able to wake up somewhere new everyday is such a fabulous experience, especially with Celebrity cruises. The Solstice Class, in particular, has really made waves! Being on the ocean or river is definitely the life for me — the food, the cocktails, the destinations — what’s there not to love?

My work has taken me all over the world. I’ve been to the Caribbean, Dubai, Canada, and lots of places in America, including Las Vegas, New York, and Florida. However, the trip to New Orleans, Memphis, and Nashville (which included two eye-opening bus tours) was the most memorable.

Over on another continent, I can’t get enough of Greece or Greek food. My family and I often holiday in Pefkos, Rhodes, where we have spent days just relaxing on the beach or hiring a car exploring the rest of the island. Closer to home, I have also visited Sunny Beach, Bulgaria, and Carihuela (Part of Torremolinos), Costa del Sol on a number of happy occasions.

There’s no shortage of breath-taking adventures waiting for you, especially because I am a part of The Holiday Village, which belongs to the Travel Village Group — a fourth generation award-winning family business trading for over 61 years — so I have a large selection of leading tour operators to choose from. Plus, as we are fully ABTA & ATOL protected, rest assured you are in safe hands.

I can’t wait for everyone to have the same amazing holidays I’ve had, so get in touch and let me help you book that trip of a lifetime.

Testimonials

Amanda Jones

Cannot recommend Jill enough. Her knowledge and expertise has guided us through the last few months and although our holiday to Mexico didn’t happen, we were able to enjoy a holiday in Cyprus instead. Nothing has been too much trouble for Jill even though we have postponed, then changed destination at the last minute. We were all so grateful to get away and knowing that Jill was at the end of a phone if we needed her made us much more at ease.

Joanne Hirst

I highly recommend you use Jill to book your holidays. Her knowledge and expertise are second to none. We had a multi-generational holiday to Las Vegas booked and unfortunately cancelled due to Covid restrictions - the refund was pursued and processed in good time - no fuss. She only works with reliable companies. An alternative holiday to Dubai was booked for us which was fabulous. She provided support in navigating the complex Covid travel requirements and regular updates/ reminders on changes as they happened. Nothing was too much trouble and all prices were competitive to those found online. We were delighted with the service she provides and can’t recommend her highly enough.

Julie Malkin

I have to say, in all of the years I have been booking holidays... I have never experienced such an impeccable service - I am from a travel background so normally just book independently. However, on this occasion we wanted the reassurance of having full Covid cancellation policies in place, so used Jill's service with this in mind. The communication and advice throughout was first class and when things got confusing, with PCR tests, locator forms, Covid apps etc, there was always a friendly email reminder with the relevant links attached. Totally hassle free, resulting in a fabulous 5 days away. Thank you so much Jill xxx
