WHO THE READER ISOur readers are a discerning and affluent mix of high-earning nationals and Anglophiles who tend to travel in couples or as part of a group. They are an older readership with the time to travel, not only for longer periods but multiple trips every year. They love everything about Britain and want to learn about our heritage and history, visit our stately homes and palaces, and experience the very best of Britain in terms of shopping, accommodation, restaurants and attractions.
