I used this guidebook, among others, on a recent vacation. This one, by far, was the most helpful.

I went to the UK for 5 weeks to study abroad, and since I had the time to travel extensively, I needed a good guide book. I bought Let's Go and a few others. Let's Go was by far the best--especially for a budget traveler. I was able to see the best (and cheapest) sites, and the hotels recommended were not only inexpensive, but extremely nice. This goes for the restaurant recommedations too. Thanks to this book (which I referred to as my "bible") I was able to save a ton of money and have to best possible experience of Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and England! I recommend this book to all budget travelers.

Having used and enjoyed a Let's Go guidebook in the past, I decided to buy this edition for my trip to England and Wales. Let's Go Britain and Ireland provides on-target reviews and solid travel advice. What's more, it's written in such an engaging and witty style that I frequently found myself reading sections aloud to my traveling companions. Unfortunately, many of the maps leave something to be desired. While driving through Bath and other small cities, they were practically useless. Overall, however, I would definitely recommend this book to anyone planning a trip to Britain.
