Cadogan Guide England (Cadogan Guides) - Softcover

England offers an amazing variety of sights and experiences - from the world of Shakespeare's histories and Constable's pastoral landscapes to the modern art galleries and nightlife of its cities. Charming villages of black-and-white houses and magnificent cathedral towns, such as Durham and Canterbury, lie amid gentle landscapes of rivers and woodland, contrasting dramatically with the majestic beauty of the Yorkshire moors, the Lake District and the craggy cliffs of Cornwall and Devon. Windswept fishing ports and traditional, fun-filled seaside towns line the coast; clubs, gigs and trendy bars in old warehouses give cities such as Newcastle and Liverpool a buzz like no other; and great pubs and restaurants are found virtually everywhere you go.
Inside you will find: England's top 60 attractions; over 1,500 hand-picked places to stay; over 1,750 restaurants, pubs, bars & cafes; 35 maps and town plans; color touring map section; stunning photography; themed itineraries and ideas to help you plan your trip.
