We Are Passionate
About Britain

Betanden was founded with a single purpose: to be the most trusted and comprehensive guide to everything that makes the United Kingdom remarkable. Whether you are a visitor exploring for the first time or a proud Briton discovering your own backyard, we are here to inform, inspire and connect you to the richness of Great Britain.


Our team of writers, historians, naturalists, farmers and travel specialists live and breathe British life. We cover everything from the prehistoric stone circles of Wiltshire to the thriving food markets of Borough, from the Highland Games of Perthshire to the harvest festivals of rural Yorkshire.


We believe the United Kingdom is one of the world’s great destinations — endlessly layered, steeped in living history and refreshingly unexpected at every turn.


To connect people with the extraordinary depth of British life — its landscapes, its stories, its creatures and its communities — through expert, honest and beautifully crafted content.
