Customer Reviews

Top Lake District Guide
Found this Lake District Guide brilliant and was just what we were looking for. It is compact but packed full of up to date information that was essential to our holiday. The maps are very useful and has a good selection of places to eat and drink in all the areas around the Lake District. Would have been lost without it! Definately recommended!

Don't leave home without it
A great book for one of my favourite places in the world. Compact and light enough to shove into your rucksack without noticing, clear, concise and useful. An invaluable touring companion.
