A great summer doesn’t need to cost a fortune – or anything, in fact. All you need is our wallet-friendly guide
Elevate your summer reading by meeting up with friends in an outdoor location for a “wild read”. Or try the method-reading approach: leaf through On Chesil Beach on Chesil beach, or dip into Tom’s Midnight Garden in the garden after dark. Or recreate a meal from literature; unless you have the kitchen skills of Auguste Escoffier, maybe start with an author such as James Salter, the king of breezy beach picnics and dinner parties, or go back to basics with a week of snacky, Hungry Caterpillar-inspired lunches.
