TRAVEL

-WITH THE O’HALLORANS-

Welcome to Travel with the O'Hallorans

We’re made up of Lyndsey, John and Erin, who all love a new adventure. We try to get away as much as possible, especially during school holidays and variety is a must for us. That means staying anywhere from a luxury hotel to a hostel and it’s not often we go to the same place twice. 
 
We do a real mix of travelling, sometimes as a family and sometimes separately. Sharing both the good and the bad, you’ll find itineraries, reviews and ideas for days out both in the UK and further afield.
