Good Guide to the Lakes

This is the sixth edition of Lakeland's best selling guide book. Over 80,000 copies have been sold since it first appeared in 1984. Once again, it has been newly revised, dragged up to date, packed with fascinating information, quite a bit of fun, and real opinions. Life is too short, holidays too precious, to waste time going to places which turn out draggy or boring. So the object is very simple - to guide you to all that is BEST to see and do in Lakeland, from mountains and lakes and walks to museums, hotels, restaurants and the latest tourist attractions. Amazing how each year new wonders appear, new places pop up, new services get offered. Also things close, go off, disappear. So it's vital, if you are one of Lakeland's 24 million visitors a year, to be as up to date, up to scratch as possible. Note well that this book contains no advertising, no payments have been received, unlike some guide books we could mention. And also that it has been written and researched, printed and published here in Cumbria. Strangely enough, not everyone has loved it ... Book jacket.
