Nook started in its now special place in 2023 but actually started as a shed in Portland Gardens Alley in the High Street in 2010!! Fun fact!

I remember booking a holiday to Turkey for £300 on a magical mystery tour – flights and 2 weeks hotel all in! What a bargain! Luckily it was a fabulous holiday and we stayed in a really gorgeous little hotel in Kas near Kalkan. The term package holiday might make you shudder but in reality it’s one of the most secure and sensible ways to book travel today especially with what is happening in this crazy world currently! In most cases your insurance will not cover you if you

Working in health and skincare I became increasingly aware of the benefits of polynucleotides, both from dermatologists and friends. I needed to give them a go! For my Polynucleotide facial I chose Pippa, at the Sechi Skin Clinic. Pippa is based at her clinics both in Marlow and Basingstoke. She is super knowledgeable and highly experienced in skincare, as well as aesthetic treatments. I have visited Pippa for some years now, and trust her clinical expertise and underst

One of the UK’s biggest Martial Arts Centres is right here in Marlow! The community at Roger Gracie Academy (RGA) has been running in Marlow, under one brand name or another, since 1996 when owner and founder Paul Busby opened his Martial Arts school, originally starting in Spinfield School. Having consistently grown over the years, Paul and RGA (Genesis Gym as it was known at the time), finally opened a full time Academy just across the road from the new location, above

A spotlight on skincare, make up must haves, trending treatments and all things self care... Beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say but with constant shifts and evolving treatments are we looking after our skin health as much as what we're layering on the surface.Let's try and fix the fiction and fables...Even as a mere mortal who's worked within the beauty industry for nearly two decades it can be a minefield deciphering fact and fiction so here is our safe space t

Joe Price tells us how to get the "Runway" look at home—from Miranda’s silver shimmer to Andy’s glossy glow-up. With The Devil Wears Prada 2 on the horizon, we sat down with Marlow’s much loved hairdresser Joe Price, to talk power hair, iconic transitions, and why your hair is just as important as your designer wardrobe. Miranda Priestly and the Power of that short silver haircut. Miranda doesn’t just walk into a room; she commands it. Joe notes that her hair is "very telling

Whilst I’m not sure I’m the best person to be giving out style or fashion advice (my kids certainly wouldn’t think so, or my wife for that matter) I guess running a clothing shop for 25 years gives me some kind of insight. Style is a very personal thing, it’s something you have to be personally comfortable with. I see a lot of guys in my industry who I think look fantastically stylish - I would never be brave enough to dress that way myself but I do think it’s good to step

I am getting divorced. What happens to our pets? For many couples going through divorce, one of the most emotionally charged questions is not about money or property, but about the family pet. Dogs, cats and other companion animals are often seen as part of the family, providing comfort, routine and emotional support. It can therefore be surprising, and upsetting, to discover how the law in England and Wales currently treats them. How the law treats pets on divorce Under th

If you’ve been thinking about changing your hair, now is the moment! Spring has brought a wave of fresh inspiration, and here’s what everyone is asking for… If there’s one theme running through every cutting appointment at the moment, it’s movement, layers, face-framing, and fringes. Whether you’re after something short and sassy, a classic shape with a modern twist, or long hair with a new lease of life, there’s a version of this season’s trends with your name on it. The S

Bridal fashion is constantly evolving, and this year’s trends strike the perfect balance between modern fashion-forward design and timeless elegance. Whether you’re a minimalist bride or love a statement look, there’s something for everyone. Clean, minimalist silhouettes Sleek, understated gowns continue to dominate. Think luxurious satins, crepes, and mikado fabrics with clean lines and impeccable tailoring. These dresses are all about cut and fit rather than heavy embellish

Wedding dress shopping is one of the most exciting parts of planning your big day, but it can also feel a little overwhelming if you don’t know where to start. With so many styles, designers, and boutiques to choose from, a little preparation goes a long way. When should you start? Ideally, begin shopping 12 - 18 months before your wedding. This might sound early, but many dresses are made to order and can take 4 - 6 months to arrive, followed by alterations. Starting early g

Nestled within the scenic grounds of Higginson Park, The M Café has quickly become a beloved fixture for locals and visitors.

Helen is a Marlow-based mum of teen twins who is rarely without a book - or her maltipoo, Roddy.

Since then, she has grown a community of over 32k readers on Instagram, hosts a podcast inspired by Desert Island Discs where authors share the books that shaped their lives, and is launching a members’ book club with in-person events in Marlow

Book to screen adaptations always make me slightly nervous, especially when it’s a book I really love. Will it look the way I imagined it? Will the casting match the characters I had in my mind? Or will they rewrite the ending? That said, it is also big business, and one that shows no signs of slowing down. Rights to books are being snapped up faster than directors can call “that’s a wrap” on their current projects. May sees the return of The Devil Wears Prada and I thin

At the centre is Kristyna Weston — known locally not just for her eye for detail, but for bui

An ADHD diagnosis, especially later in life, can bring a whole mix of emotions, often arriving all at once. For some, it feels empowering, like the missing piece of a jigsaw finally falling into place. For others, it can come with a sense of shock and a quiet grief for the years spent not knowing. Either way, it often leaves you with more questions than answers - the biggest one being, ‘What now?’ That’s where I come in. I’m Vicki, and I run Neon Mind – a coaching business

Nestled in the gentle rolling landscape of Buckinghamshire, Marlow Valley Vineyard is a celebration of English winemaking at its most passionate and purposeful.

After over 30 years in the property industry, and two decades living in Marlow, launching my own independent estate agency felt like a very natural next step. I’ve spent much of my career working on Marlow High Street, helping people move at every stage of life — from first-time buyers to families upsizing, and downsizers looking for a simpler way of living. Over the years, I’ve come to understand that moving home is rarely just about bricks and mortar. It’s personal, emoti
