Customer Reviews

South West Coast Path
These are great guides for a walker. I am using this to plan my way. It will help me to work out where to stop for lunch, where to take packed lunches, useful pubs to refuel at and antcipate easy and hard parts of the route. I have used these for the Offa's Dyke Path and the Cleveland Way.

So good you can use it backwards
This is a very good guide with clear O/S maps. We walked the path the clockwise way round, (sea on our left) which meant we used this book back to front, and still found it very useful. Good for distances, although doesn't tell you how strenous or easy each section is, you need the SWCPA guide for that.

Generally a very good book about the trek. Some minor mistakes - one, we didn't have to take a detour - and secondly - the days the firing range is in use.
