The economic weather, contrary to the actual weather, has created a new interest in not going abroad. You will want to compensate for what you miss, so getting the very best out of your choice of a British destination takes on a new importance.
How do you proceed? Hours on the internet showing you everything but advising impartially about nothing? Saving newspaper cuttings? Travelling with a dozen guidebooks and atlases? All of these are possible but are they really feasible?
We believe that only The Times Best of the Best County Guides cut straight to the heart of the problem. These attractivecounty guidebooks have two defining features:
- Each contains the essential information from the top-rated writers and guidebooks in ten categories of interest:
hotels, B&Bs, pubs, restaurants,
churches, houses, gardens,
beaches, golf courses, museums & galleries
Plus
Our own researches in five further categories:
natural produce, archaeology, outstanding views,
antique dealers and family attractions.
The calibre and independence of our sources ensure that The Times Best of the Best are unrivalled.
- Each guidebook contains a Collins map highlighting the locations, with their own symbols, of the very best of everything the county has to offer.
This is the first time that so wide a range of discerningly edited information has been so concisely presented, with all the main contact details plus postcodes for satnav users.
They are therefore uniquely useful for holiday planning: where to go and what to see and do. Only here do you find such a range of interests presented so that you can make the choices that best suit you.
They are no less useful when actually on holiday, as no other single source provides so many different choices of ways to spend your time. With our famously unpredictable weather, such a neat compendium of so many other possible ideas (from 300 and 800 recommendations a county) could be the best money you spent on holiday.
