With nearly 40 years in the Travel Industry working mainly for Large Multiple Travel Agency as Sales Manager for Scotland and Cumbria, I decided to set up my own Agency 10 years ago in Coatbridge, followed then with Motherwell, Bellshill and Wishaw. These Lanarkshire towns are all towns I worked in when I was a Sales Consultant, Manager and latterly as Regional Manager.

Inspired by my husband Jimmy who has owned and run a very successful independent agency in Edinburgh Jimmy Martin Travel for over 24 years I took the big step to go it alone and have never looked back .

I have always had a real passion for travelling and have visited so many different countries and love sharing these experiences with my staff and customers alike. For 20 years I have given back to the travel industry in Scotland by sitting on the aboard of the SPAA the oldest travel organisation in the world which represents all aspects of the industry in Scotland. I had the tough job of President of the Association during the COVID years where I learnt so much and managed to help secure funding for our sector.

When I am not travelling my other massive passion is live music and not many live acts come to Scotland that I don’t go to see.

Any spare time is spent with my 2 children 4 step children and 5 granddaughters who certainly keep me on my toes .
