British Travel Journal | Autumn/Winter 2023
There’s so much variety throughout this issue, bursting with breathtaking travel destinations, new hotels and extraordinary one-of-a-kind experiences. We cycle around Rutland’s 23-mile perimeter on a gourmet foodie trail, sleep under the stars in a wigwam surrounded by leopards at Port Lympne Safari Park in Kent, join an early morning meadowland wildlife walk and meet the resident bees of Calcot Manor in the Cotswolds, and spend a day enjoying magnificent gardens and cyder-making at The Newt in Somerset. Our journalists uncover the hottest new hotels while partaking in a nature-inspired pottery session at the Birch Selsdon and enjoying flower arranging at Cromlix with tennis star Andy Murray's wife Kim. My own travel highlights include walking across the Rhossili Downs, visiting the exquisite region of the Gower Peninsula and taking a dip in Tinker Bunny’s Bathing Pool during a luxury stay at Atlanta Trevone in North Cornwall. With so much to both see and do, it's time to get creative with our travel trips!

When you look at photos of Atlanta<br />
Trevone perched on a rugged clifftop<br />
with the deep ocean swells below,<br />
you might assume that this Victorian<br />
terrace and rocky beach are remote and isolated. But<br />
what you can’t see from the pictures is the beautiful<br />
village and sandy beach of Porthmissen Bay nestled<br />
behind it, just a stone’s throw from the front door.<br />
Trevone is truly a picturesque destination with a<br />
welcoming holiday atmosphere. The village is dotted<br />
with luxury holiday homes, a post office, farm shop,<br />
pub, surf school and cafe. Atlantic Terrace, built in<br />
1899, holds a special place in the bay as one of the<br />
oldest properties. It’s so close to the shore that you<br />
can effortlessly step out in your swimsuit, fall asleep<br />
to the soothing sound of the sea and enjoy watching<br />
the waves over breakfast.<br />
Atlanta Trevone’s unrivalled location and<br />
uninterrupted sea views meant that when it came to<br />
redeveloping the property, owners Jessica and Ash<br />
Alken-Theasby knew the inside needed to impress in<br />
equal measure. They have rebuilt and designed their<br />
Cornwall Collection to perfection.<br />
Atlanta Trevone launched last year (2022) and<br />
gained widespread journalist coverage, resulting<br />
in a flurry of bookings as lively as the Atlantic in a<br />
storm. The team, led by Jess and Ash, continued<br />
developing their properties, including their fifth one,<br />
The Net Loft, which opened just a few months ago.<br />
Given the tight deadline, they worked tirelessly to<br />
complete the project, still painting and decorating<br />
and even receiving mattress deliveries with just one<br />
week to go before their first guests were due to arrive.<br />
Meanwhile, we were putting our feet up and making<br />
ourselves at home in One Atlanta. <br />
