For the youngsters it’s the start of a new school or college year but for most of us it’s a good time to take advantage of all that Britain has to offer, at off-season prices, without the queues and in relative calm. Our editing and journalist teams have come up with some true gems for you. Our British hospitality industry continues to provide the excellence that tourists have come to expect and, all over the British Isles, there are treats in store. If the spa experience is your idea of bliss, turn to our Luxury Spa Guide for inspiration. Lovers of heritage will leap at the chance to explore Leeds Castle, stay at Wynyard Hall or discover the manifold joys hiding in secret Sussex. North of the border, Ken McCulloch, late of Hotel du Vin/Malmaison fame, is working his magic in Edinburgh and Glasgow while, in Western Argyll, we sample the superb hospitality and seafood splendours around Oban. The seasonal magnificence in our countryside and gardens has to be experienced and we offer our pick of the most rewarding walks and show how easy it is to visit these sights, direct from your arrival airport. Perhaps a little daunting at the height of summer, you will find Shakespeare’s home-town, Stratford-upon-Avon, much easier going. It is impossible to ignore the capital city and are pleased to give you a taste of the highlife at four leading London hotels and visit The Game Bird, James Durrant’s new restaurant at The Stafford. Nothing is more British than a nice ‘cuppa’ and, for our ‘Made in Britain’ feature, we are happy to showcase the nation’s potters, some centuries-old and some more recent, all proud to continue the tradition. While sipping your tea, you will also find our regular features on the UK’s cultural scene, travel news and style items. Happy reading!
