Subscribe to The Undercurrent
The travel newsletter that digs a little deeper
Tired of spending hours scrolling through a booking site looking for the ideal hotel based off a tiny photo, or trawling through dozens of TripAdvisor reviews to try and find the real story?
The Undercurrent, our fortnightly newsletter, focuses on sharing all the essentials you’ll need for dream destinations, including insights, itineraries, hotel picks and handy info. This saves you from the hassle of researching – and the headache of finding somewhere to go in the first place!
It’s free, packed full of high quality travel writing and doesn’t have the usual spam, advertising or sponsored marketing you’ll get in other newsletters. Just ideas, suggestions and inspiration to get you on the road.
Once you have subscribed, you’ll get a welcome email, a follow-up a few days later that introduces Cairn & Cove a little more, then you’ll receive our email newsletter every 2 weeks. We store your email securely, never share your email address with third parties, and we won’t bombard you with offers, discounts or any other shameless plugs!
Why subscribe?
A deeper dive
Forget AI slop or same-old ‘hidden gem’ coverage. We go deep on destinations, themes or activities, so you can arrive prepared.
Practical intelligence
Not just pretty pictures and best case scenario writing. We take a pragmatic, human viewpoint that tells it how it is, so there are no surprises on arrival
Niche interests
From churches to chocolate, we forego the generic, please-everyone suggestions and talk about the weird, wild and wonderful.
Editorial quality
This isn’t a marketing email dressed as a newsletter. This is our mini magazine that carries the same writing level as the rest of the Cairn & Cove brand.
Fortnightly, not daily
Who needs a daily email barrage? No hard sales, no spam, just a round up of our best work, every couple of weeks, no more, no less.
Emails not for you?
If the idea of receiving yet another email makes you shudder, we also share our content across social media. Pick your favoured channel, and we’ll see you there instead!
