This trusted guide is now in its twelfth edition and is a glittering collection of some 660 farms, castles, cottages, rectories, windmills and townhouses (around 30 in London). There is something for everyone, from families with children to young lovers, peace-seekers, beach bums and gardeners. More than 500 of these places are committed to providing an organic or locally-sourced breakfast and half a dozen B&Bs are celebrated for their all-round ‘green’ credentials with their own special green pages.
If you’re after outstanding architecture, inspiring views, beautiful interiors or memorable friendliness you will be spoilt for choice. Clear symbols, excellent maps, colour photos, concise directions and quick reference indices help guide readers and our fresh and lively write-ups paint an accurate picture, so they can make an informed choice. All places are regularly inspected, and chosen because they are special.
