An inspiring guide to weekend escapes to the British countryside. (The Guardian )
This beautifully produced book seeks out the untrodden path and tranquil lake, the artisan bakery and traditional forge where you suspect they may still accept shillings and pence in return for their labours. (Daily Mail )
Book Description
Make the most of your weekends and be inspired anew with these sumptuously illustrated, hand-picked ideas for escapes to the British countryside
All you need to tempt you away from home... What an excellent book - so beautiful to browse through, and a mine of information about every place visited on mainland Britain. First I checked the places I thought I knew well and was amazed to learn new facts about favourite familiar places, photographed so well...made me look again are what I thought I was familiar with. This is book of more than straight facts. the stunning photography captures each locality perfectly, drawing you into the carefully crafted prose which really gets into the heart of a place. A pleasure to read at a warm fireside, but you'll soon be off exploring where they've been. Irresistible!
I really enjoyed browsing this book, more of a coffee table book than a travel guide. I found the photos to be of excellent quality, and the writing really drew me in. However, as a practical guide, I'm not sure I will get much use out of the book. We are visiting a couple of the areas featured on our hols next month so it has been a lovely way to think about and plan how we might spend our time while we're away.
Simply presented with all relevant information you need for a great weekend. I'm looking forward to picking my trip from here and a great book to take along. Totally gives you the impression of what you can find and do in a place without any effort on the part of the reader. A great buy
Great book with fabulous photography Lovely to browse through and plan a weekend away. The descriptions of villages and places of interest very accurate. A great coffee table book
