Life’s too short for sh*t holidays
Curated helps you travel better by discovering places with soul through trusted recommendations
Our belief
The best trips start with
a recommendation from someone you trust
The trips that stay with you rarely start with a search bar. They begin with a message from a friend, a quiet nudge from someone whose taste you trust, or a simple “this feels like you.”
In a world increasingly shaped by algorithms and automation, we believe travel is better when it’s guided by people, their experiences, instincts and lived moments, not data points.
Introducing Curated
Your shortcut to better travel
Curated is a travel platform built around human taste. We work with tastemakers who genuinely explore, stay, and spend time in the places they recommend - sharing not just where to go, but why it matters. The result is a calmer, more thoughtful way to discover beautiful, independent spaces that feel right long before you arrive.
How it works
Putting the joy back into travel planning
Planning a trip should feel inspiring, not overwhelming. Curated is designed to help you move from discovery to booking in a way that’s intuitive, seamless and beautiful.

Our Story
From podcast to platform
Curated began as a podcast celebrating the stories the country’s most soulful stays. As the stories grew, so did a community longing for human-led travel in an algorithmic world. Today, Curated connects people and places through taste, storytelling and real recommendations - because the best things in life, and travel, still happen offline.
It all started when Molly started the Curated Spaces podcast to share the stories behind Britain’s best boutique spaces to stay.
THE PODCAST
The podcast snowballed into a growing community of curious travellers who weren’t just listening - they wanted to book.
THE COMMUNITY
Alex joined the team to help put the joy back into travel planning with a next-generation booking platform for soulful stays
THE PLATFORM
Now, we’re welcoming standout eateries and experiences as we expand Curated into the go-to destination for independent travel
THE FUTURE OF TRAVEL
The Curated Collection
A handpicked collection of remarkable spaces to stay, eat & do
Every space on Curated is selected for a reason. We focus on independent places that care deeply about how they’re run, how they feel and the impact they have on people and planet. From regenerative farm stays to off-grid cabins and design-led hotels, this is a collection built on quality, not quantity.
