Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an early copy of this book。The organization of the book involves putting all the locations in three different categories: city and town， coast， and countryside。 By doing this， it creates a cohesive way of looking at different locations。Each location has beautiful photographs that are supported with descriptions of various shops， eateries， and historical sites around the city or town。It works as a really good travel guide and I would even recommend it Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an early copy of this book。The organization of the book involves putting all the locations in three different categories: city and town， coast， and countryside。 By doing this， it creates a cohesive way of looking at different locations。Each location has beautiful photographs that are supported with descriptions of various shops， eateries， and historical sites around the city or town。It works as a really good travel guide and I would even recommend it working as a list of "personal recommendations" as opposed to those offered in the bigger travel company guidebooks。I will warn you that there are multiple references to the Harry Potter films。 I understand that this would be difficult to separate the two especially since there are overlaps in filming locations and the places selected by the authors。 。。。more

I am an Anglophile for sure。 So， I was very happy to receive an e arc for this title。 It is just packed with good ideas for trips that are not too far away from the well-known city。This book is divided into three sections， City & Town， Coast， and Countryside。 I liked the maps with landmarks that begin each of these。 In addition， there are many enticing photographs throughout。 Cities and Towns that are featured include York， Bristol， Bath， and Edinburgh， along with many more。 Coasts include Marga I am an Anglophile for sure。 So， I was very happy to receive an e arc for this title。 It is just packed with good ideas for trips that are not too far away from the well-known city。This book is divided into three sections， City & Town， Coast， and Countryside。 I liked the maps with landmarks that begin each of these。 In addition， there are many enticing photographs throughout。 Cities and Towns that are featured include York， Bristol， Bath， and Edinburgh， along with many more。 Coasts include Margate， Whitstable and a number of others， while find the Countryside in Cliveden House， Beaverbrook Country Estate， Box Hill and again， lots more。I tested the book by looking up some of the places where I have spent time。 I think that the authors did a nice job in describing these places。 This gives me trust about the places that I have not visited （but would like to） that are featured here。 That having been said， each entry is short so readers may want to explore their key locales with additional resources。There are also helpful sections called UK Travel Tips， and Photo Tips included here。 They are worth a look。Many thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this title。 All opinions are my own。Note: I enjoyed this couple’s earlier book， Pretty Little London。 。。。more

This book from the people behind the Pretty Little London Instagram account takes readers on journeys outside of London。 The book is filled with gorgeous photographs， as one would expect from the creators of a popular photography instagram account。 The book provides brief practical advice on what to see and where to stay on their journeys。 I was happy to find that I have been most of the locations featured。 I also appreciated that they included tips on taking photos while traveling。 This is more This book from the people behind the Pretty Little London Instagram account takes readers on journeys outside of London。 The book is filled with gorgeous photographs， as one would expect from the creators of a popular photography instagram account。 The book provides brief practical advice on what to see and where to stay on their journeys。 I was happy to find that I have been most of the locations featured。 I also appreciated that they included tips on taking photos while traveling。 This is more of a coffee table book than a true guidebook， but is fun for finding trip inspiration。 。。。more

The creators of the @prettylittlelondon Instagram account return with a book about sites and cities outside of London。 They are great at getting beautiful shots of locations that includes historical sights， scenic spots， shops， houses and even catching the perfect food or hotel room。 I’ve been to more than half of the locations that are featured and it is fun to revisit them in beautiful photos。 Information includes places to stay， eat or visit and the time distance from London。 There are also t The creators of the @prettylittlelondon Instagram account return with a book about sites and cities outside of London。 They are great at getting beautiful shots of locations that includes historical sights， scenic spots， shops， houses and even catching the perfect food or hotel room。 I’ve been to more than half of the locations that are featured and it is fun to revisit them in beautiful photos。 Information includes places to stay， eat or visit and the time distance from London。 There are also tips for taking pictures。 I was envious of how many photos they are able to get without people in the shots。 This is more of a small coffee table photo type book compared to an official travel guide。 The photos are great and I’ve added locations to my hope to visit next time I’m in England list。 Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group - White Lion for temporary ARC and I’m leaving a voluntary review。 。。。more
