Women's Marina PrimaloftÂź 3 in 1 Parka
For the keen hikers and winter staycation-ers among us, the Marina Primaloft Parka is a truly versatile piece that will prove invaluable in harsher weather conditions. One of Zara Tindall's favourite pieces from Musto's collection, this Parka can be taken on winter weekend breaks to the country or crisp springtime escapes to the coast. The 2-layer recycled polyester shell is waterproof to 5k, so you won't be caught out by surprise downpours.

Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95 Bluetooth headphones
It's hard to find a brand with a better combination of sound quality and style than Bang & Olufsen. The Beoplay H95s are designed with soft lambskin ears and memory foam cushions for optimum comfort on those long haul flights; and, of course, an unrivalled noise-cancelling experience (because who can really sleep on flights without noise-cancelling?). We love the Chestnut colourway for a more unusual and trend-led alternative to classic black.

Contigo Luxe Travel Mug
With a Contigo travel mug, you can enjoy piping hot or refreshingly cool drinks wherever you go, in style. 100% leak-proof thanks to the lidâs lockable push-button technology, which makes them particularly safe to chuck into rucksacks on your travels. With Thermalock double-wall vacuum insulation, it keeps drinks hot up to 3 hours or cold up to 10 hours, on the go, in the office or outdoors. Especially important for keeping the caffeine fix going when travelling, it is an indispensable accessory for anyone who enjoys being on the go.

Olverum Restful Sleep Pillow Mist
For those new to the Pillow Mist craze (and certainly those who might not be convinced that a mist can aid in restful sleep), we invite you to try Olverum's Restful Sleep Pillow Mist. A firm favourite of the La Suite team, we take it with us on our travels for a calming sense of âhomeâ and therefore a more familiar journey to dreamland. With soothing notes of sweet citrus, bergamot, amyris and lavender, the mist is free from artificial preservatives, fragrance and colourants; and is also suitable for the vegan traveller in your life.

Fifty Years, Kinloch Lodge Cookbook
For the inevitable periods in between travelling, why not bring the destinations home? The new cookbook from Isle of Skye hotel & restaurant, Kinloch Lodge, has been published in celebration of its 50th anniversary. Featuring over 35 delicious recipes from the head chef, Jordan Webb; each beautifully photographed by Alan Donaldson. It is, however, much more than simply a cookbook. Part family-memoir, part love letter to the Isle of Skye, its landscapes and its people, the cookbook sings with a very real sense of place. Scattered amongst the recipes are vignettes of the hotelâs history and heritage, interviews with local producers, tips on foraging and much, much more; with this gift, any keen traveller can let their mind wander around the forests and fields of the Scottish Highlands, accompanied by flavours of the region.

When in need of a battery top up whilst out and about, the iWalk LinkPod Pro is the ideal choice. Weighing just 90g, it will fit conveniently into any bag or pocket and comes with a built in connector so no wires are needed (making it super neat too!). The 4800mAh capacity is enough to fully charge any phone once while on the move - especially key for anyone who likes to go off-grid on their travels! We love how the LED display shows the remaining power, so you're never caught out while on the move.
