We hope the autumn issue of National Trust Magazine will inspire you to get out and about to experience all the season has to offer.
 
Join wildlife cameraman and presenter Hamza Yassin on a journey to reconnect with the nature on our doorsteps, revealed in the new BBC TV series Hamza’s Hidden Wild Isles.  Celebrate the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth by taking a nostalgic trip through some of the nation’s best-loved film and TV adaptations of her works, and the National Trust places that helped bring Austen’s world to life. And if you feel like venturing out, we’ve got you covered with our round up some of the best ways to celebrate the season at Trust places, from Christmas cheer to Diwali lights.
