For your next trip, why not explore closer to home? Sustainable travel expert Juliet Kinsman and journalist Jon Weeks discuss the benefits of visiting nature-positive escapes such as Sussex's Knepp Estate, which was transformed from a working farm into a 3,500 pioneering rewilding project. Isabella Tree, who led the transformation, explains how giving the site back to nature saw it grow into an incredible natural landscape, and help re-establish animal species. Ned Burrell, director of the site's Wilding Kitchen restaurant explains how they're using food to promote the benefits of rewilding endeavours in the UK.Juliet also describes her trips to the 42 acres wellness retreat in Somerset, and the Reeds at South Lodge in the south east.Plus, find out what else we're exploring as part of our Sustainable Travel campaign here.Follow us on X or on Threads.
