About Me

Welcome to the world of Things Helen Loves, where I write about life outdoors, history and travel.

I'm passionate about exploring the world through its history and finding quirky or historic places to stay.

Expect inspiration for ways to enjoy time outdoors, UK breaks and European adventures.

I've gone forest bathing in Wiltshire, slept in medieval churches, drunk coffee in a Dutch windmill and explored an abandoned hospital in Germany. I don't know where I'm going next, but I'd love you to come along.

More than that, I hope to inspire you to go out and have your own adventures.

Love a wander round Cathedral Close in Salisbury, even on a rainy day. Had a bit of a property lurk and admired that lavender lined path 😍 Isn’t it lovely? A fine start to the day involving two feet, four paws and endless stops to take snaps of the wildflowers. The English countryside in July really is a beautiful thing. Country life, long walks with my dog, foraging my way through the seasons, wildflowers and slow living. These are the things that make my heart happy. If this is your vibe, we should be friends 😊 I recently discovered a real gem in Southampton and I’m sharing it with you. Hydrangeas for Flower Friday 😍 I would say they are my favourite but actually all flowers are my faves, love them all 💐 A peek at the beautiful interior of the Royal Victoria Chapel in Royal Victoria Country Park. The countryside is looking gloriously lush here in Wiltshire, and the weather had cooled enough for some proper walks. If you love a good garden, here’s some travel inspo for you: The Herrenhausen Gardens in Hannover, Germany. A view of a few of my favourite things- the wolfy one and a field full of flowers. A lovely start to the new week 😊
