Bold Weekend Stories

About

Bold Weekend Stories is for readers who like their time off with a little shape and plenty of room around it. We write about country outings, seasonal habits, simple pastimes and the small customs that turn an ordinary day into one worth remembering.

What we cover

Our subjects move with the weekend and the year: choosing a walk, making a rainy afternoon agreeable, arranging a relaxed gathering, or finding a way to keep a memory of a day out. We favour subjects that can be enjoyed without special equipment or elaborate plans.

Who it is for

The publication is for curious general readers, whether they live in the countryside, visit it often, or simply enjoy the slower pace suggested by a free day. No particular knowledge of rural life is expected.

Our approach

We look for useful distinctions, telling details and ideas that leave readers free to choose. A weekend is not a test to pass or an itinerary to complete; our writing offers possibilities rather than rules for the perfect day.

Our way of seeing

A good weekend need not be grand.

We value plans with breathing room, familiar places seen afresh and small pleasures that belong to the season.
