From our britain country collection
Maggie's house – the most southern on Guernsey – comes with enormous views: Herm and Sark glistening in the water under a vast sky. The breakfast terrace is hard to beat...

Travel needn't be hurried and harried and far-flung: take a slow holiday or arrange a gathering nearby - and enjoy the huge diversity of British landscapes and architecture. We've tramped all over Britain to find truly special places to stay – or to gather for a wedding, party or meeting, from the grand or stylish to the cosy or quirky. We've found interesting and friendly people who will look after and feed you beautifully. We particularly like to celebrate those who promote Slow Food and sustainability generally - and Britain is home to some of the most enlightened establishments in the world, whose owners share our commitment to authenticity, individuality and conservation.
