This trusted guide is now in its tenth edition. All of the places are inspected and are good value: over 100 have rooms for two at £100 or under. This selection will provide plenty of inspiration, whether it's for a weekend away, a family holiday or even a business trip - from the thoroughly traditional to state-of-the-art 'boutique'. We look for what we like, and celebrate the unusual, the beautiful and the individual. Our fresh and lively write-ups, full-colour photographs, clear symbols, excellent maps, clear directions and quick reference indices paint an accurate picture to help discover the place that is best for you.
We're always keen to draw attention to owners who are striving to have a positive impact on the world so we have introduced our "Ethical Collection" to this new edition of our bestselling guide. Owners have had to complete a detailed questionnaire and have it evaluated before becoming part of this collection. Places awarded an ethical stamp are working hard to reduce their environmental footprint, making significant contributions to their local community and/or are passionate about serving local or organic food.
“With its emphasis on 'special' places to stay and descriptions of crisp bed linen, cosy fires and fresh flowers, this guide points out some real gems.”
