But as it turned out, I needn’t have feared! As I hope this issue once again shows, we are spoiled for choice living in the <strong>British</strong> Isles. There are so many wonderful destinations to visit, whether on a staycation or visiting from overseas, and I hope our magazine will inspire you to extend your holiday - or book another! Highlights this issue include a wonderful 48 hours in Alderney, p72, an epic journey through the heart of Scotland, from Edinburgh to the Caledonian Forest p83, and finding utter bliss at the new idyllic riverside luxury estate, Monkey Island, near Bray, p66. A growing trend for environmental awareness and sustainability within travel runs through our <strong>Autumn</strong> issue, from a leather brand using goat skins (that would otherwise have been discarded) to create beautiful and unique travel accessories, p45, to a hotel conservation project aiming to restore the ecology of Scotland, p94 - and an announcement for the UK’s first-ever vegan hotel, p55. Looking to join in the fun? Well, if there were ever a Wacky Olympics the UK would top the medals every time, as our selection of weird and wonderful events, p22, reveals. We go behind-the-scenes at Goodwood ahead of the vintage Revival p32 and feature a fantastic selection of world-class outdoor art, p48. We interview top chef, Raymond Blanc as he celebrates two milestones this year – his 70th birthday and the 35th anniversary of his hotel-restaurant, Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, p36, get thirsty for English Sparkling Wine, p26, and find the best places in the UK to go foraging, p56. Together with our regular <strong>Travel</strong> News, p9, Cultural Agenda, p13 and Luxury Stays p62, I hope this issue of <strong>British</strong> <strong>Travel</strong> <strong>Journal</strong> continues to enhance your upcoming travel plans – and that you have a wonderful, and memorable, autumn! u B<strong>Travel</strong><strong>Journal</strong> PROUD TO BE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH stage 3 - B&W detailed logo Jessica x Contista Media Ltd cannot accept responsibility for unsolicited submissions, manuscripts and photographs.
