读《FT·金融时报》学英语：九大热门目的地06.UK/英国

The key reason tour operators expect a rise in visitors to the UK in 2017 will be painfully obvious to Britons.“Even the 1 per cent love a good deal and, post-Brexit, it's never been cheaper for North Americans to head to the UK,” says Norman Howe of Toronto-based Butterfield & Robinson.
旅游经营者预期2017年赴英游客数量会上升，主要原因对英国人来说是既苦涩又显而易见：“甚至1%的富豪都喜欢划算买卖，英国脱欧后，美国人与加拿大人到英国购物可谓史上最便宜，”总部位于多伦多的Butterfield & Robinson旅行社CEO Norman Howe说。

As well as the fall in value of sterling, he suggests television series Downton Abbey and The Crown have generated a renewed fascination with Britain's heritage.“We are seeing particular interest in the Cotswolds, and will be developing both biking and walking itineraries for 2017.Soho Farmhouse is creating some buzz, along with various other new properties, especially the celebrated restaurant-cum-inns like the Wild Rabbit [in Kingham, Oxfordshire].”
除了英镑贬值外，他暗示《唐顿庄园》与《王冠》成功引发了新的英国传统文化遗产热。“我们看到游客对英国西南的科茨沃尔德丘陵地带情有独钟，2017年我们会开发相应的自行车与徒步行路线。Soho Farmhouse高档酒店与风格各异的其它新开酒店让游客流连忘返，位于牛津郡金厄姆、餐厅酒馆兼备的知名野兔酒店尤受游客青睐。

Scotland is also attracting growing overseas attention, both for its vibrant cities and mountain wildernesses.Luke Bailes, chief executive of Singita (which runs a dozen lodges in southern Africa) suggests visitors travel to see the conservation efforts being undertaken by Danish retail magnate Anders Holch Povlsen on the Glen Feshie Estate in the CairngorMs..
苏格兰以生机勃勃的城市与荒凉寂寥的山野风光同样吸引海外游客纷至沓来。顶级酒店Singita总经理Luke Bailes建议游客造访凯恩戈姆斯，实地感受丹麦零售巨擎Anders Holch Povlsen倾情改造格伦菲斯庄园的效果。

“They are making a profound difference, on a significant scale — replanting forests and reducing deer numbers in order to restore a balanced ecosystem and revert to what the land looked like some 200 years ago,” says Bailes.Visitors can stay at Povlsen's Killiehuntly Farmhouse, near Kingussie, where the bedrooMs.are in chic “Scandi-Scot” style.
“庄园修葺后面貌焕然一新——重新植树造林与减少鹿群数量，目的是恢复生态系统以及重现大约200年前的原貌。”贝莱斯说。游客可下榻金尤西附近、波弗尔森名下的特色古堡农庄Killiehuntly Farmhouse，农庄卧室是独具特色的“北欧+苏格兰”风情。
