Product Description

Product Description

"The Rough Guide to Britain" is the definitive guide to England, Wales and Scotland. A 28-page, full-color section introduces Britain's highlights with incisive reviews of all the best places to stay, eat, drink and party - plus new 'author's picks' to highlight the very best options. The guide includes informed accounts of all the top sights from the Tate Modern in London and The Baltic Centre in Newcastle to the National Museum of Wales and the picturesque Scottish coast. There are plenty of practical tips on exploring the great British countryside from the rugged Pembrokshire coastline to the beautiful valleys of the Yorkshire Dales. The guide also takes a detailed look at Britain's culture, politics, history and wildlife. This revised edition includes three brand-new, full-color inserts: 'Festivals', 'The Coast' and 'Beer & Pubs'. The guide comes complete with maps and plans for every region.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK, more detail needed, 17 Sep 2006
By J. Huxford (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
i am a big fan of rough guides and i have used them wherever i have visited and found them to be indispensible and by far the best travel book series around. however i afraid i was slighty disappointed with this one as i found it did not contain a great deal of detail and admitted large areas of interest to tourist such as the soutern cotswolds and the forest of dean. however if you buy the guides to the individual countries than they will contain the extra detail needed. other than this the book was very accurate and as usual very readable.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hmmmm, 6 Aug 2007
Pretty good, a couple of observations though. Restaurant recommendations in London (and I can imagine elsewhere too) REALLY random - with some places it seems like they just stumbled upon them leaving the tube and decided to include them. These, alongside, eyewateringly expensive 'big names' a tourist would struggle to get a reservation for even planning weeks away. I mean, Gordon Ramsay?! A huge swath of possibilities go unnamed, although they are very competitively priced for tourists - Pret, Leon, et al. But they're very likely anti-chain.

On that note, the lefty diatribes whenever they come upon a country house or 'palace' are a bit predictable after a while - and a bit unfair in some cases. Not a fan of Lady Di myself, but the Althorp section was a bit too biased for my taste.
