Extremely useful and comprehensive July 5, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
If, like me, you love water and find yourself in an area wondering what there might be to do to fill in a an evening's walk, this gazetteer is invaluable. Time and again it identifies the local gems, from sea caves to tea shops, ruined churches to secret bays.
If you want to plan a trip then the most spectacular places are highlighted with full page picture spreads. I love it.
Great photos, production, layout and maps (loads of them) too.
Too much information! July 2, 2008 8 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book has a sister publication 'The most amazing places to visit in Britain' Now that book is a gem. You can plan a great trip around the suggestions in that book and few are as predictable as you might imagine.
I bought this book with the same expectation, yet sad to say it has failed to come up to the same high standard. It is too comprehensive, covering by its own admission over 1000 different locations. In consequence it attempts to cover most places with a very brief paragraph. Certainly not enough information to make a decision to plan a place into an itinerary without your own prior knowledge of it. And that rather defeats the object. This book would have been much better with a tenth of that number and more selective, with the anectdotes and tips that make its sister publication so useful. The title is misleading, and playing on the sucessful franchise of its far better predecessor. This is a catch-all gazetter of the coast, and nothing like 'The most amazing'
