Marketing and travel runs through my veins
Born to travel
I moved around an awful lot as a kid. My parents have had 17 homes to date, including in Singapore, Tehran, Scotland and the USA!
You see, my Dad was in the Army Air Corps and then was a commercial helicopter pilot flying to the North Sea oil rigs before becoming an airline pilot.
So looking back, I guess I was always destined to work for some major global travel brands during my 16-year corporate career. That is, before I jumped ship…
Ade and I always had dreams of going travelling, so in 2004 we jacked in our safe corporate jobs and rented out our much loved first home, not knowing what we would do on our return.
Yeah it felt scary to leave the security of our lives behind, but it was a life-changing experience. The best experience EVER!
And it was on that RTW trip, that we stayed in our first treehouse and that would put our lives on a whole new unexpected path…..
Over the next 10 years, we set about finding the ideal UK location to build our very own treehouse for guests to enjoy
In August 2016, with a little bit of help from the BBC’s Escape to the Country TV show, we found our ‘spot’ on the top of a hill looking down the Wye Valley, where England bumps into Wales.
Three years later, in 2019, we started building our dream space and just 8 months later, we were ready to open – just in time for the pandemic to close us down (on and off!) for the next 2 years 😥 Like for many of you, it was a devastating time.
However, thanks to 30 years of marketing experience and some fabulous PR and partnerships, some 2.5 years on, we are thriving and pretty much fully booked well into the summer of 2023.
And so GET FULLY BOOKED was born…
After leaving my corporate life behind, for a while I wasn’t sure if I even wanted to stay in marketing, but a short break made me realise that I loved it still – just not in the uber-political and backstabbing corporate environment any more!
I am a “Get it Done” sort of gal!

“Real ‘aha’ moments!”
“Sarah’s marketing blueprint really gave me food for thought. I’ve been running two successful holiday cottages and I’ve just launched two luxury glamping cabins. I’d say I have a good grasp of my marketing but this course gave me a fresh look at what I have been doing and I had some real ‘aha’ moments. It was fun to work through – Sarah makes it really easy to follow and clear to do. Thank you. I can’t wait to put what I have learned into place and be less reliant on Airbnb in the future!”
