The
Rough Guide to Britain
Tour Britain. The Rough Guide to Britain is the ultimate insiders'
handbook to England, Wales and Scotland. The full-colour introduction
brings the countries' highlights to life, from the Eden Project
in Cornwall to Edinburgh's Royal Mile. The authors provide lively
accounts of every sight from the latest attractions such as
the Cardiff Bay area and Gateshead's Baltic Centre to established
landmarks from the Tower of London to Edinburgh Castle. For
every town and region there are lively reviews of the best places
to stay, eat and drink, to suit all pockets and with accompanying
maps pinpointing each location. There's also practical tips
on exploring the great British countryside from the rugged Pembrokeshire
coastline to the picturesque valleys of the Yorkshire Dales.
Castles:
England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales
Tour Britain. Britain and Ireland are home to hundreds of castles,
some still lived in, some reduced to little more than lumps
and bumps in the landscape. Many of them have been the scene
of great historical events - negotiations, battles, sieges,
executions, kidnappings and betrayals, and all have often bloody
and grim stories to tell. Today, most castles are fascinating
and romantic places to visit. They include Windsor, a vast and
rambling warren that would still be recognized by medieval visitors;
Carreg Cennen, a fabulous ruin complete with a cliff-side 'secret'
tunnel set in breathtaking landscapes in the mountains of Wales;
Hermitage in the Scottish Lowlands, where Mary Queen of Scots
rode alone to visit her secret lover; and Blarney, most famous
for the stone you should kiss in order to gain eloquence, but
also one of Ireland's most impressive castles. "Castles"
is based on the classic work by Plantagenet Somerset Fry and
has been completely revised and redesigned for this brand new
edition.
