UK travel news round up
The latest gay friendly listings and a new book group in a London hotel
Pride and prejudice
Is there still a need for gay friendly accommodation listings? Simon Forrester and Andrew Craven think so: "The internet provides a wealth of choice but there is often little attempt to distinguish real style and character from the rest." With that in mind, the duo have set up Further Afield, featuring a range of (mainly UK) hand-picked, independent boutique properties. From Guardian favourite, The Ashton in Lancaster, to the Whitehouse Hotel in Devon, the emphasis is on quality and character, as well as the welcome extended to gay (and straight) travellers.
