Write for us

We welcome considered pitches about rural travel that help readers notice a place, plan a thoughtful outing or understand how a countryside journey fits together.

What we welcome

Pitch original, reader-focused ideas about routes, landscapes, village places, planning or travel habits. Strong proposals have a clear subject, a reason it matters to a general reader and a distinct angle that is not simply a list of destinations.

What makes a useful pitch

Briefly explain the central idea, the reader it serves, the shape of the piece and the material you would draw on. Tell us if the proposal relies on first-hand reporting, images or time-sensitive information. Do not present speculation as fact or promise access you do not have.

How to send it

Send proposals through the Contact page and choose the editorial question option. Include a working title and a short outline in your message. A pitch is a proposal, not a promise of publication; please do not send completed work unless requested.
