I am VERY pleased with the Berlitz Lake District Pocket Guide. It is a small, compact little book but is nonetheless clear and easy to read. Unlike many guide books, the paragraphs are well deliniated and the desired information about specific locations is easy to find. The photos are of good quality and the fold-out maps on front and back cover are especially handy. I am pleased to find such a comprehensive guidebook for this region without having to purchase a large and cumbersome tourbook with lots of unwanted information. I highly reccommend this little book for those who are considering travel to this beautiful corner of the world!

If you are looking for your fist guide book then this is great. I was born in the UK and know the lakes fairly well, having walked many of the hills. I bought this guide for a trip in 2004 as I havent been in the UK since 1997.

It is a superb pocket book with snippets about most things. The maps is pretty basic, so get yourself a nice Ordnance Survey map 1:25,000 or 1:12500 when you arrive.
