We are delighted to announce that Christopher Sleigh, Sleigh’s Owner and Creative Director, has been named amongst Walpole’s 50 most influential figures in British luxury, acknowledging our pioneering vision for luxury travel. 

“As a passionate advocate for bespoke luxury travel across the UK and Ireland, I’m honoured to join this extraordinary community of innovators who are shaping the future of luxury,” Christopher shared. “This recognition reflects our team’s dedication to redefining luxury through purposeful, immersive experiences that resonate long after the journey ends.” 

While traditional luxury centres on comfort, our years of crafting bespoke journeys across the British Isles have revealed that our clients’ most treasured memories stem from moments of active engagement: the pre-dawn trek to view ancient monuments, or mastering traditional fishing methods that led to their most memorable meal. The luxury we champion emphasises authentic encounters and personal growth – creating experiences that become meaningful through genuine connections with local communities and memories that are truly earned through participation. 

Whether it’s adventure in the Scottish Highlands, cultural immersion in Ireland’s historic villages, or creative inspiration in England’s hidden corners, we craft journeys that balance challenge with comfort, and authenticity with elegance. As stewards of these remarkable destinations, we recognise that true luxury must be sustainable. Our experiences support local communities, preserve cultural heritage, and protect our precious natural environments. 

Echoing Christopher’s words, “It’s truly humbling to be part of this, and it serves as a great reminder of the hard work and dedication that shapes our industry.”
