Scott & Laura: A Friendship That Travels Far
We’re Scott and Laura – your trusted travel consultants and the people behind The Travel Addict.
We’ve known each other since 1987 when we became neighbours in Torfaen. Decades later, we’ve turned a lifelong friendship and a love of travel into something we’re proud of: a service that makes holidays feel easy, personal, and unforgettable.
“I love showing people what’s possible — and making it happen, without the stress.”

“I love turning big dreams into booked holidays.”
