Driving, done the way you want to, where the journey is as enjoyable as the destination: discovering the most fantastic attractions along the way.

Co-founders AJ and Clare Durling love travelling around – to see friends and family, or to see the country – with their three children, a big dog, and a love of different and exciting attractions.  But they have found quickly that keeping kids cooped up in a car for long stretches doesn't make for a fun day!

Looking for great places to break the journey, but without having great knowledge of every attraction around, they didn't know how avoid the obvious service stations and found that there was no facility or website in the UK to help with this.

They started to write the website themselves. As with all of these things, they quickly found that everyone has their own, favourite place of interest – that you only learn about after the event! They decided to crowd-source the attractions database to allow people to list their own hidden gems for others to find, meaning that the database is maintained by the best editors in the world: other travellers!

Given the range of requirements for the wanderlusters out there, they include the usual kinds locations that are useful to many - McDonalds, Marriotts, etc - as well as the independent, personal recommendations that can make the difference between a good trip and a great one!
