British Travel Journal Magazine

Have you ever wondered if you could explore the UK’s finest vineyards without the stress of navigating the lanes yourself? This summer, that question has a very exciting answer, as we criss-cross the country to bring you the best vineyard routes – including the UK's first transported wine trail on the Rother Wine Triangle. Our fascination with the grape is matched only by our dedication to the earth that nurtures it. We head to the rural wilds of Wiltshire to uncover ‘life balance’ at Liba, a biodynamic vineyard where the soil is treated as a self-contained ecosystem, and where the sunset from a wood-fired hot tub offers the ultimate restorative escape. This commitment to responsible, sustainable luxury runs through our entire edition. If it is the true taste of the terroir you are after, delve into our guide to Sustainable escapes, or trace the origins of your favourite brew in From leaf to cup, as we visit the historic, flourishing tea gardens of Tregothnan in Cornwall.
