Our reviewers are back doing what they love best

Oh, how I have missed them. They have become a collective place where I contain all my fantasies of future ‘normal’ life. In my dreams I’m in a riad courtyard in 40C heat in Marrakech; listening to the sirens and noises of a city back-to-life from a high rise in New York; sunbathing next to a ladder into the sea on a Mediterranean island. In truth, as it currently stands, I’m staying closer to home: my first hotel booking in a couple of weeks is at the newly opened Glebe House in Devon, a boutique wonder that makes my heart flutter every time I think about it.
