Rough Guide to the Lake District

I used this book extensively both in preparing for a week spent in the Lake District. It proved to be very detailed and accurate, as well as very up-to-date as regards prices / website addresses, etc. I have been to the area several times in the past, and this guide really brought back all the memories and had me chomping at the bit to return. While there, I used it constantly, and not once did it provide any inaccurate information. A good guide book is essential for any trip - and this is one of the best I have ever used.

I spent two weeks walking around Windermere covering ground haunted by Wordsworth, Coleridge, De Quincy, Keats, Beatrix Potter, Arthur Ransome, Donald Campbell, and others, and this book told me where my time and pounds would be well spent. It never let me down. The next time I go I'll carry the latest edition.
