As we went to print with our last issue never could we have imagined a world in which travel would be completely stopped in its tracks. Never again will we take for granted our freedom to visit our magnificent cityscapes, captivating coastlines and peaceful countryside. It has been a difficult year for the hospitality and travel sector, but as this issue of British Travel Journal shows many are beginning to reopen, delighted to welcome back visitors and guests once more. We speak to resilient hoteliers and others in the UK tourism industry about how they have responded to COVID-19, Small Island, Big Heart (p20). Our Cultural Agenda (p11) features outdoor art, sculptures and natural wonders. And, in a time when remote locations are being sought after, all you need to know about wild (and nearly wild) camping is covered (p34)... plus Secret Islands, Wild Swimming, England's Coast, Self-Catering properties and much more. Travel safely, and together we will continue to support our wonderful tourism industry.
