The world of the Hollywood sweetheart is well sought after. Lucky for the British belles hiding beneath their broken brollies- and other ladies alike, the sun drenched fairytale can be at your fingertips.

Based directly under the Hollywood Sign, lies this little beauty- the 'Sunset Hollywood Ranch`. A breathtaking oppotunity to ride horseback and explore the sights of this Californian gem, either in the heavenly lit evenings or during a lazy afternoon. The horseback tours are available to book for the evenings or simply turn up during the day. whats more, they offer a 2 for 1 offer on Tuesdays.
If you want to travel out a little..
It's worth a visit to the 'Moonlight Rollarway' Rollarskating rink, located in Glendale, California. Working it's magic since the 1950's, this little lovely offers anything from a flirty skate (think a la Jessica Simpson) to skating lessons, to Artistic Skating.
