Product Description

From the tempestuous seas round Cape Wrath, at the north-west tip of the Scottish mainland, to the gentle creeks and estuaries of East Anglia, Britain's coastline offers an inexhaustible range of dramatic contrasts. Whether you are looking for peace and solitude or all the fun of the fair, this book will lead you there - to remote sandy coves, lofty clifftop viewpoints or an exhilarating ride on Blackpool's rollercoasters.Starting at the Severn estuary near Bristol, this unique touring guide takes you on an epic voyage of discovery round the entire coast of England, Scotland and Wales, observing the changing scenery, and evoking the character of more than 1,500 places of interest. It describes the type of beaches you will find, identifies castles and stately homes to visit, nature reserves to explore, stunning coast walks to discover and places where you may simply prefer to sit back and relax. Charming clifftop villages such as Clovelly in Devon, dramatic coastal stacks such as the Old Man of Hoy off Scotland, lively end-of-pier shows at coastal resorts such as Blackpool and expanses of golden sand such as Polzeath Beach in Cornwall illustrate the wonderful diversity of attractions that Britain's coast has to offer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely useful and comprehensive, 5 Jul 2008
By D. P. Start (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If, like me, you love water and find yourself in an area wondering what there might be to do to fill in a an evening's walk, this gazetteer is invaluable. Time and again it identifies the local gems, from sea caves to tea shops, ruined churches to secret bays.

If you want to plan a trip then the most spectacular places are highlighted with full page picture spreads. I love it.

Great photos, production, layout and maps (loads of them) too.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too much information!, 2 Jul 2008
By Cheerio (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This book has a sister publication 'The most amazing places to visit in Britain' Now that book is a gem. You can plan a great trip around the suggestions in that book and few are as predictable as you might imagine.

I bought this book with the same expectation, yet sad to say it has failed to come up to the same high standard. It is too comprehensive, covering by its own admission over 1000 different locations. In consequence it attempts to cover most places with a very brief paragraph. Certainly not enough information to make a decision to plan a place into an itinerary without your own prior knowledge of it. And that rather defeats the object. This book would have been much better with a tenth of that number and more selective, with the anectdotes and tips that make its sister publication so useful. The title is misleading, and playing on the sucessful franchise of its far better predecessor.
This is a catch-all gazetter of the coast, and nothing like 'The most amazing'
