It summarises much of what I’ve learned in over 40 years of travelling around Britain.
It will help you decide what to see, what to do, where to go and how to get there without any grief.
Put together a pick-and-mix tour itinerary from a collection of tour modules. Choose an itinerary that matches your interests and get the best of British attractions with the least possible time, trouble and cost.

Save serious money with these tips
I’ll give you money-saving tips on rental cars, accommodation and sightseeing worth far more than what the book will cost you.
On rental car hire insurance alone I can tell you how to save an average of £120*.
I'll guarantee you'll save!
I’m so certain of those tips that if you don’t save your up-front cost I’ll refund double your money. In fact, if you are just plain unhappy with the book, I’ll refund your money any time within the first two weeks.
And here’s another thing.
There are no ads, no sponsorship and I don’t get any freebies, so every recommendation is made on its merits, not because they paid or bribed me to make them look good.
*Based on a survey of over 2000 customers of a large reinsurance company. It's an average . . . your savings will depend on circumstances. (Could be even more!).

Visiting the stately homes of England is an absolute must on any UK road trip.
One thing is for sure: You are spoiled for choice when considering the Stately Homes of England. There are hundreds open for public viewing at one time or another. Because “hundreds” is not on your range of options. » Read more about: 10 Outstanding Stately Homes of England »

In a blog post on the Visit Scotland website,
I’m no expert on the best UK gardens. I love to visit them, but I really don’t have the skill-set to tell a great British garden from merely a very good one.
I am, however, a very good information miner so I decided to hunt out the opinions of experts on the best of British gardens.
From time to time I get asked “What are the best places to visit in the UK?”.
How can anyone possibly answer that?
A) It depends on what interests you have and
B) There are so many other things to see and do and experience it’s hard to tease out the pick of them.
