WHERE SPORT MEETS LUXURY
Hannah and Sarah were supposed to be living it up in Saint Barths this week, but you have all been keeping us so busy it just wasn’t possible to make it this time (cry).
And this week? The theme is clear… Luxury sports events!! And we are absolutely here for it.
From the Rugby World Cup, Formula 1, Wimbledon, FIFA World Cup, to iconic football matches across Europe - we are taking these legendary events and turning them into full-blown, unforgettable travel experiences.
Because let’s be honest… it’s never just about the match or the race. It’s the whole experience. Where you stay. What you do before and after. The hidden gems in the city and the luxury touches. We build the experiences around the events.
And this week, THREE incredible offers really stood out to us.
AUSTRIAN GRAND PRIX EXPERIENCE
1.ROSEWOOD VIENNA - BEYOND THE CIRCUT
Vienna is known for its grand architecture and timeless elegance - but for a few days each year, the energy shifts. The Austrian Grand Prix takes over, turning the surrounding landscape into a high-speed stage where precision, power, and exclusive access redefine the Formula 1 experience.
Rosewood Vienna is a beautifully restored 19th-century landmark on Petersplatz, set in the heart of the city’s historic centre. It blends Viennese heritage with contemporary design, offering a residential-style luxury that feels more like a private residence than a traditional hotel.

A PRIVATE ESTATE STAY
2.KEYTHORPE HALL - FORMULA 1 SILVERSTONE EXPERIENCE
Just minutes from the action yet a world away in atmosphere, Keythorpe Hall offers a rare F1 weekend escape that is private, discreet, and entirely your own. With Silverstone Circuit less than 15 minutes away by helicopter, it becomes an effortless and elevated base for race weekend.
Available for exclusive hire for up to 20 guests, this secluded Georgian country house is set within unspoilt countryside, surrounded by private gardens and open grounds. Ideal for family stays, celebrations, or corporate retreats, every detail is tailored, from seamless transport to curated access - while a dedicated team provides discreet, personalised service throughout, allowing you to fully relax.
FIFA WORLD CUP X CLAYOQUOT WILDERNESS LODGE
3.JUST BOOKED: CLAYOQUOT WILDERNESS LODGE
We have just booked a trip that begins at full volume - the FIFA World Cup, where the noise is constant and the energy is electric. But the real story begins after the final whistle, when everything suddenly quiets down and the pace disappears.
From there, the journey shifts completely. No crowds, no urgency, just space. It continues at Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge, set deep within the untouched wilderness of Vancouver Island and reachable only by boat or seaplane, creating a true sense of separation from everything that came before.
Here, luxury is defined differently, not by excess, but by stillness, privacy, and connection to the natural world. Days unfold without structure, shaped by forest trails, ocean air, and wildlife encounters, while evenings settle into something even slower, with seasonal dining, open skies, and fireside moments that stretch long into the night. It’s the contrast between these two extremes - from intensity to complete calm, that transforms the trip into something far more meaningful than either experience on its own.
