'British Boutique Hotels: An Opinionated Guide' by Gina Jackson. 208pp, hardback, 145 x 209mm. Illustrations by Charlotte Ager.
An unashamedly simple and highly opinionated guide to the very best boutique escapes in Britain. Lockdown has been hard: take a much-needed break. Stay in a wildflower-inspired suite in the Scottish Highlands, explore the Welsh countryside from an art-filled historic townhouse, or sip local cider in the grounds of a Somerset manor.
Following on from Hoxton Mini Press’ highly successful series of pocket-sized, paperback Opinionated Guides to London, this sumptuous, larger hardback is our first guide to Britain: with more detailed write-ups, more stunning photography, and even more opinion.
Gina Jackson is a travel blogger and photographer who, though a proud Londoner, can more often be found testing out hotel rooms all over the country. A champion of the great British staycation, she shares her personal recommendations and honest critiques on her Instagram @ginagoesto, alongside working full time in tech.

'Brutalist Plants' by Olivia Broome, 208pp, hardback, 151 x 199mm.

From angular terraces overgrown with vines to cracks that have become arteries for moss, these images tell a story of resilience – and unexpected beauty.
