The oldest business in South Woodford has just had a nip and tuck. Back in 1957, the year that Elvis Presley had his first UK number one single and Harold Macmillan succeeded Anthony Eden as Prime Minister, Abbotts Travel opened. Fifty six years later, it is still a presence on South Woodford’s main thoroughfare, George Lane.
Abbotts Travel offers tailor-made luxury trips as well as business travel, honeymoons and family holidays from cruises and skiing to beach and city breaks. A new website, AbbottsTravel.com, features exclusive offers as well as recommendations and detailed travel blogs from customers.
The family business is run by Julian Abbott in the same street – and on the same principles – as his grandfather and father. “We succeed because of personal service and because we care about details,” says Julian.
Abbotts is a fully licensed and bonded agent and in 2012 added the new ATOL Licence, providing greater security and confidence.
You can visit Abbotts at 134 George Lane, SouthWoodford, E18 1BA and by telephone at 0208 989 9445 or by email at info@abbottstravel.com
