A gorgeous sunset at another successful conference organised by the YES team last week in the beautiful Dubrovnik.
An incredible destination for leisure, business and incentive travel, this Croatian gem really does have it all.

The beautiful weather in the UK at the moment has got the YES team dreaming of our favourite hot spots of our 2018 events calendar.
New on the hot list, we are loving the beautiful destination of Slovenia. Bordered by Italy to the west, Austria to the north, Hungary to the northeast and Croatia to the south, this destination is perfect for a whole range of activities and tastes.
Hosting everything from snow-capped peaks to turquoise-green rivers and Venetian-style coastline, ...Slovenia is a destination with a rich and diverse culture, with a colourful and extensive history.
The YES team recommend the Intercontinental in Ljubljana for the 5* luxury experience. Alternatively, the capital city has a variety of options for all styles and levels of accommodation to suit all needs.
We can't wait to visit Slovenia again!

This week the team have been exploring the Myconian coastline and all that this beautiful Greek island has to offer.
The perfect destination for a conference, incentive or simply a luxurious holiday.

As it is Friday, we thought we'd share some of our favourite bars within some of our favourite hotels in the capital, perfect for a post work drink with colleagues, drinks with friends or a private hire event.
Firstly, an on trend favourite - tucked away in the beautiful Edition hotel, the Punch Room provides a cocktail menu with a twist. Reliving spirits of old, the menu has inventive tipples that suit all palates. The place to see & be seen!
Secondly, another bar with a rep...utation for hosting many a famous face - the Artesian bar at The Langham. Reinventing the cocktail menu classics, the mixologist team have dreamt up the Cause, Effect & Classic Cocktails menu. A must to try for those who like to switch it up!
Following this we have the incredible DANDELYAN bar, sat within the uber cool Mondrian hotel, this bar hits the spot for views and a beautiful nautical aesthetic.Not only serving delicious drinks, but also incredible food, it's no wonder that this bar is currently sat at the top of the 'World's 50 Best Bars' list!
Finally we have The Beaufort bar, based in the iconic elegance of The Savoy. Hidden away from the queues at the busy American bar, The Beaufort provides solace in the form of its gold-and-black Deco salon with a real sense of drama. The menu alone is an art form, and you will undoubtedly be spoilt for choice.
Cheers to the weekend!

This week the team have been on site for some fantastic events across the UK.
The highlight of the week was an exclusive industry event, hosted at the Jaguar Experience in the Midlands, with guest speaker Karren Brady CBE, who inspired and motivated attendees and shared key business knowledge.

Chinese New Year in London is the largest celebration outside the homeland itself. Every year hundreds of thousands of people descend on the West End to experience the colourful parades, live performances and of course the traditional food.
Also known as the Spring Festival, Chinese New Year celebrates the beginning of a new year according to the Chinese calendar, and is a time when people don red clothing and set off fireworks to symbolise the beginning of a fresh start.
Kic...king off at 10:00am with an array of colourful floats and the dragon and lion dance at Charing Cross Road, the parade will continue to ‘snake’ its way through into Chinatown.
Marking the beginning and end of the Chinese calendar, this vibrant celebration lends way to reflecting on the past, preparation for the future and hence the opportunity for self-improvement.
So, from us at YES, we say Xīn Nián Kuài Lè (Happy New Year!). We hope you have a fabulous time celebrating!

Ornate and vibrant, friendly and fun loving, traditional, yet modern; Thailand is a rising beacon within southeast Asia and indeed the world. A place to feel the sand between your toes, outdoor adventure or a hub in which to conduct business. Thailand has it all, and here are some standout tips from the YES team.
Ko Tao – One of he first things that springs to mind when envisaging Thailand is its tropical beaches, and Ko Tao certainly has the wow factor. Translating to ‘Turt...le Island’, it may come as no surprise that this tiny island serves as Thailand’s scuba diving capital. Possessing crystal clear waters, natural white sand and glistening blue seas, this little island packs a seriously big punch! The Tarna Align Resort offers professionally designed, private villas plus all the amenities to make the most of this unique island.
Chaing Mai – The land of colourful hill tribes and a playground for fun activities. Trekking up to Hmong Tribal village to seek a glimpse of traditional Thailand is a standout experience. Other popular activities include: Ziplining through the rainforest canopy, visiting the local and ethical elephant sanctuaries or go white water rafting!! 137 Pillars House is standout place to stay. Renovated to best emulate the original 1889 structure, this charming hotel offers a peaceful night’s sleep in and amongst the bustling city of Chiang Mai.
Bangkok – As one of the major hubs within Southeast Asia, this megacity is geared to suit the high standards of international business travellers. Combining the best in hotels, restaurants and nightlife, Bangkok has everything to make the most of a business venture. A few honourable mentions with regards to hotels are the Sivatel Bangkok, the VIE Hotel, Grand Centre point and Shangri-La.
Thailand certainly has plenty to offer for those looking to get away in 2018, as well as a perfect destination for work incentives and annual conference meetings.

Glenapp Castle is a stunning Victorian retreat, featuring towers and turrets ; the impressive façade certainly alludes to the properties long history and current splendour. Set in thirty-six acres of land, many guests don’t feel the need to venture outside the castle grounds. Classic country sports such as shooting, deer hunting, and fishing can all be enjoyed within Glenapp’s extensive estate.
For those who are interested in exploring the surrounding area, Glenapp lies ju...st outside the Galloway Forest Park. With endless trails to explore, guests can seek out the local wildlife that inhabit the area. Wild goat, otters, osprey and even eagles can be found within this beautiful location. Further pursuits such as mountain biking, archery, fishing, bird watching and many more can be enjoyed outside the castle grounds, not to mention star gazing under one of the few ‘Dark Skies’ zones in Europe.
The castle itself features seventeen opulent yet traditional bedrooms, all of which are spread across the ground and first floor, optimising the panoramic and picturesque landscape.
Renowned as a luxurious, award winning hotel, it is often overlooked that the functionality of this venue extends to that of corporate meetings and strategic decisions; Churchill himself held a meeting at Glenapp in 1944. This hidden 19th century property truly embodies grandeur, elegance and the opportunity to reconnect with the past and present. Glenapp Castle is the perfect venue for an exclusive buy-out to incentivise your team or a weekend away that really wow’s!
