My husband and I have traveled England, Scotland, and Wales using Alastair Sawday's Special Places to Stay: British Bed & Breakfast to select our accommodations and have had nothing but glowing reviews of each truly special place we stayed. Each entry includes a photograph, a brief written description of both the property and its owners, and a set of symbols that indicate accepted method of payment; smoking/non-smoking; and pet, child, handicapped & vegetarian facilities. The guide also includes maps and driving directions that are a welcome supplement to a more general atlas of major motorways.

Most properties are in out-of-the way locales that truly lend themselves to experiencing what makes each town and village in Britain unique. These are not cookie-cutter B&Bs; Sawday ensures that each place has a story to tell, whether it be flamboyant owners, gourmet food, organic farming methods, gorgeous gardens, or historically-interesting architecture. You really can't go wrong if you select accommodations from this book.
