Your November/December issue is here!

Welcome to your November/December issue of BRITAIN! This issue we’re remembering our late Queen’s life and remarkable reign, stepping back into Regency London, and uncovering the stirring stories behind Britain’s abandoned houses and villages…

As the nation enters a new, post-Elizabethan era, this issue we remember our late Queen’s life and remarkable reign. We visit Balmoral in Royal Deeside, Her Majesty’s Highland haven, where she spent her happiest times, and where her 70-year reign ended on 8 September 2022.

Fans of the Netflix smash-hit Bridgerton will want to read our feature on Regency London, where we explore the London addresses where the Ton, the high-living aristocrats of the Regency period, liked to spend their time and which still tell thrilling tales of this exuberant era…

The sight of abandoned houses – whether a palatial mansion or once-idyllic village – cannot fail to stir the imagination, and each has its own human story to tell. In our feature on Britain’s ghost houses, we explore some of Britain’s abandoned houses and villages, which you can visit yourself.

There’s nowhere better to soak up the atmosphere of yuletides than in a stately home decorated for Christmas. As we approach *that* time of year, we’ve rounded up the best stately homes to visit this Christmas, who are each delving into the past for historical inspiration for their festive decorations this year.

Plus, you could be in with a chance of winning a luxury stay in one of Britain’s most historic hotels, Maryculter House in Deeside, Scotland.

All of this, plus so much more. Get your copy now here.
