Product Description

Review
Whatever your interests, be it climbing, walking, visiting pubs or simply driving around our lovely county, with this book at hand you will never be stuck for anything interesting to visit and explore. (Keswick Reminder )

What's the top all-round guidebook for readability and comprehension? The seventh edition of the Good Guide to the Lakes is an entertaining read and gets my vote. (Manchester Evening News )

Product Description
Revised and expanded edition of the bestselling guide to Lakeland. 'The Good Guide is the answer to every tourist's prayer, a comprehensive assessment which treads on toes as well as sparking off satisfied grins.' Lakescene 'I think he was most unfair to Barrow.' Town Clerk, Barrow 'You'll wonder how you managed without it.' Yorkshire Post Life is too short, holidays too precious, to waste time going to places which turn out draggy or boring. So the object is very simple - to guide you to all that is best to see and do in Lakeland, from mountains and lakes and walks to museums, hotels, restaurants and the latest tourist attractions. Amazing how each year new wonders appear, new places pop up, new services get offered. Also things close, go off, disappear. So it's vital, if you are one of Lakeland's 24 million visitors a year, to be as up to date, up to scratch as possible. Note well that this book contains no advertising, no payments have been received, unlike some guide books we could mention. And also that it has been written and researched here in Cumbria.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great guide to the Lakes for families, 14 Jun 2009
We had an older version of this book from years ago so I bought this one to make sure the information was as up to date as possible. This book is very helpful to anyone making a trip to the Lake District. It is concise and honest and we found in previous years that the information was accurate. It's also very funny in places which makes it a pleasure not a chore to read throught it. At this price from Amazon, it's a bargain, but even at full price, it's a definate "must" for families going to this beautiful part of the country.
