Footprint England Handbook

More about the book

From cutting-edge city nightlife to country house gardens, from lonely coasts to elegant cathedral towns, Footprint's England Handbook is packed with ideas on making the most of one of Europe's most accessible, diverse, and stimulating nations. British author Charlie Godfrey-Faussett combines lively and well-informed descriptions of major attractions and more eccentric places of interest with historical anecdotes and penetrating cultural commentary. Detailed listings identify the best places to stay, from cozy bed-and-breakfasts to sumptuous hotels, along with the best value spots for dining, from village pubs to gourmet restaurants. This guide offers suggestions for walks, outings, and irresistible shopping and sporting opportunities. An easy-to-use table of contents and a front map help readers plan visits to the best sights. Full-color maps cross-referenced with the text aid readers in deciding where to stay, eat, and take in the local culture, while evocative full-color photographs depict the highlights of the country. A section entitled "How Big Is Your Footprint?" presents the publisher's acclaimed "Responsible Travel" perspective.
