Making Dreams Come True

The Ultimate in Holiday Planning

With the new leave year fast approaching, many of us are dreaming about that next special trip away. 
 
Fancy tracking lions on safari in Tanzania or hiking through the jungle in search of howler monkeys? What about taking an adrenalin-fuelled white-water rafting trip in Costa Rica or flying through a rainforest on a zip wire? 
 
Sharing quality time away together is great for family bonding and making shared memories, but finding an exciting destination that works for everyone isn’t easy. 
 
Tailored For Families 
 
Meet Stubborn Mule, a travel company that uses their experience and knowledge to put together unique adventures specifically designed for parents and children - with exciting itineraries that match the ages and interests of the whole family. 
 
Whether you’re travelling with tricky toddlers or entertaining demanding teenagers, MD Liddy Pleasants understands that going off the beaten track can feel a little daunting. 
 
As both a Mum and travel industry expert, Liddy knows firsthand the pitfalls and joys of travelling across the world with children but says families don’t have to put dream destinations on hold. 
 
Her mission is to enable families to visit wonderful and exciting places, creating a truly tailor-made experience that helps everyone get the most out of their precious holiday time. 
 
Nothing comes straight out of the box and, even without guaranteed bragging rights, many of these experiences can’t be found in a guidebook or arranged yourself. 
 
“Having travelled extensively in all of our destinations,” says Liddy, “we know all of the best secrets and will make sure that these are included in your bespoke itinerary.” 
 
Perfect Fit 
 
That flexible, bespoke ethos, with added ‘wow’, is something we love…and we’re delighted that the team at Stubborn Mule feel the same way about WorkSmarter’s staff holiday tracking software
 
The Suffolk-based company joined WorkSmarter earlier this year because they were searching for an easy-to-use staff holiday planning system, flexible enough to meet their precise needs. 

Excellent system! They have anticipated everything that you might need, including part time working hours, pro-rata payments and so on. We've tried several different systems and none have been quite right, but this one is perfect. Highly recommended!

Hassle-Free Holiday Bookings            
 
WorkSmarter organises annual leave across your teams from any device, in any location. This is flexible holiday planning that’s built around your business, adjusting to the way you operate your own holiday and staff leave policies. 
 
Whether it’s booking that dream summer holiday, taking parental leave for a trip of a lifetime that kids will remember forever, or requesting a last-minute bank holiday break, WorkSmarter takes care of all those niggly pre-holiday admin issues that can leave teams tearing their hair out.
