I travel across Britain foraging wild food. Here’s what to look for, and where

Egypt has been a nation in some capacity since 3150 BCE, and the land has changed hands many times in the thousands of years since. Modern Egypt as we know it was officially founded in 1954, when the British occupation of the territory finally ended, according to The Guardian.

A massive German cruise ship is sailing back and forth around the English Channel, searching for a crew member the captain believes fell overboard early Sunday morning.

Amid the roaring Ferraris and shouty tourists that roam Mayfair, 1 Hotel Mayfair stands like a welcome oasis. Found on Berkeley Street, this is the first European opening from the 1 Hotels group, renowned for its eco-conscious approach to hospitality. It may be found in the heart of the capital city, but not only is it covered in lush greenery, with its living plant walls, but, inside, it has also been designed with biophilic principles throughout. What’s more, last month, it further cemented its role as a ‘retreat within the city’, with the launch of its new Bamford Spa.

I visited Italy in September to celebrate my sister's birthday and opted to travel by train instead of renting a car.

Monsters might be fictional characters in books and movies, but these ominous, otherworldly creatures are often linked with real-life places.

A popular tourist attraction didn't exactly meet Kacey Musgraves' expectations during a recent visit.

Britain’s original destination for a dirty weekend, Brighton has had a reputation for licentiousness since the Prince Regent (later King George IV) started bringing his mistress Maria Fitzherbert here in the late 18th century. The construction of his coastal party pad, Brighton Pavilion, sealed the deal — slowly transforming the sleepy fishing village of Brighthelmston into a fashionable destination for the Regency elite, as well as setting a deliriously high standard for subsequent society pleasure dens.

When Roger Tempest inherited Broughton Estate at the age of seven, tadpoles flowed from the taps and the main house was so exposed to the elements that in winter the billiard table gathered a light dusting of snow. The family dined in hats and gloves. The land had been given to his ancestors in 1097, in the aftermath of the Norman invasion, when wolves still roamed England. For almost a millennium, these 3,000 acres on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales have mirrored the history of our land: the enclosures, the persecution of predators, deforestation, modern agriculture and the gradual eradication of the wild. Today, Broughton is part of a new conversation about land use that could rewrite the book on what England looks like.

While I was born and bred here in New Zealand – or Aotearoa, the country's Māori-language name – I’ve spent enough years away to understand how it’s a destination that can feel comfortingly familiar and completely strange to visitors all at once. 

Hadrian’s Wall has perhaps the most single-minded personality of all the National Trails, tracing as it does the 84 miles from Bowness-on-Solway to Wallsend, which represented the north-west frontier of the Roman empire for nearly 300 years. It was built by the Roman army (the soldiers dug the ditches, quarried the stones and laid them) on the orders of the emperor Hadrian after his visit to Britain in AD 122.

The ‘golden horseshoe’, an otherworldly image of a rare golden tri-spine horseshoe crab accompanied by a trio of golden trevallies fish, has been chosen as the winner of the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2023 competition.
