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!

It might be easy to forget your emails and daily life pressures, but<br />
acknowledging that your time here is almost up is a much greater challenge...’<br />
Ash’s, who opened his restaurant – recently celebrating its<br />
10th year – when he was aged just 18.<br />
If you make it to the Bodmin end of the trail, you’ll find<br />
Camel Valley Vineyard, where you could take a tour or<br />
simply enjoy a glass of wine on the terrace.<br />
Cycling back, we couldn’t resist a hot-chocolate stop<br />
at the Atlantic Coast Express – a beautifully converted<br />
vintage train carriage, conveniently located at the halfway<br />
point of the trail serving ‘ACE’ alfresco food and drinks.<br />
Just one night in Atlanta Trevone and it becomes a<br />
second home. In fact, you feel so relaxed here that during<br />
an evening spent cooking up a storm in your lavish<br />
kitchen, playing board games and gazing out to sea, you<br />
need to remind yourself you are not in an endless Cornish<br />
dream. It might be easy to forget your emails and daily life<br />
pressures, but acknowledging your time here is almost up<br />
is a much greater challenge. It’s time to check out – but not<br />
before one last quick dip in Tinker Bunny’s Bathing Pool?<br />
OK, count me in, I’m plunging in first...<br />
Atlanta Trevone is a set of five luxury self-catered holiday<br />
homes, prices from £1,400 per week.<br />
