Product Description

Product Description

In the edition of our much-loved guide there are many places new to us, some of them farmhouses in gorgeous countryside, but also more townhouses and more B&Bs purpose-built by younger folk experimenting with a change in lifestyle. You get more independence, for that is what the owners like themselves, and they are often greener too. If you’re after outstanding architecture, inspiring views, beautiful interiors or memorable friendliness you will be spoilt for choice. This new edition contains something for everyone – from families with children to young lovers, peace-seekers, beach bums and gardeners. We include only places that we truly like and have built up a large and loyal band of owners and readers who trust our judgement.


About the Author

Alastair has built a team of talented editors who are as committed as he is to the search for authenticity and personality in places to stay. They are also ‘driving’ the world’s first carbon ‘neutral’ publishing company; the search for a reduced ecological footprint is a serious one. The company has won The Queen’s Award for Enterprise in the Sustainable Development category, an award from Business Commitment to the Environment and a Green Apple Award and moved to its own eco-offices in January 2006.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't leave home without Alastair Sawday, 21 Sep 2008
By Thomas Bates (Suffolk UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Alastair Sawdays Special Places to Stay British Bed and Breakfast 2008.Don't leave home without it! Do your homework before planning a trip by sitting down with this marvellous book, packed with information, photographs, discriptions of wonderful places to stay, to suit all tastes and pockets. I use it at least 10 x times a year, recently stayed in Hampshire, Gloustershire and Lincolnshire. I can only say that all were absolutely perfect, and were exactly as mentioned in British Bed and Breakfast and better! Two of the Bed and Breakfasts were even better than a UK 5* Hotel, the personal touches, i.e. arranging taxis, restaurants to dine at, washing up our own picnic clutter by our hosts!........the list goes on. This book is worth every penny. Buy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Saving money and time with Sawdays, 22 Sep 2008
How? Because when you buy this latest edition of British Bed & Breakfast (from the unbeatable 'Special Places to Stay' range), you will never be left with the nagging doubt that you should have chosen somewhere else to stay for those precious nights away. Its 684 entries cover England, Scotland and Wales and offer a vast choice, many of which would beat a four star hotel when it comes to standard of accommodation and food.
I speak from experience!
Aside from a colour picture and an inviting description with facilities guide of each place, the book itself offers various quick and useful reference indices.
One more feature to highlight is the 'ethical collection' where owners have had to complete a questionnaire which is then rigorously assessed by Sawdays staff before being a place is indicated as belonging to this group. You can even look up some of the questionnaire responses on the Sawdays web page.
Since I discovered Sawdays, I have never regretted the choice of B&B made from the guides; that's really worth something.
