Summary

This lively, informative guide features 30 of the most picturesque getaways in Great Britain and Ireland. Personally visited by Time Out’s crack team of researchers, locations include the coast (stretches of seaside, isolated marshes, sophisticated resort towns), rural retreats (from the Cotswolds to Scotland), towns and cities (including charming Brighton and Manchester) and an expertly chosen selection of the latest boutique hotels and spas. This guide is an ideal resource for visitors to London who want to experience the varied pleasures that lie outside it.
