There's something for everyone here, from young families to young lovers, peace-seekers, walkers, cyclists, surfers and art and history buffs. Stay in a handsome townhouse or a quirky castle, a little terraced cottage or a university college, some are lavish, others simple. There are no set rules, no interminable checklists, no hard and fast criteria for inclusion: we look for character, authenticity and owners who love people and go the extra mile. Each entry is special in its own way. One may have fabulous architecture and inspirational views, another amusing hosts and delightful interiors; some have it all. Breakfasts will always be delicious: maybe eggs and bacon from down the road, soft fruits from the garden, homemade breads and jams, compôtes and sausages.
Honest write-ups take the slog out of finding the right place for you, be it somewhere perfect to take the dog, a child-friendly city bolthole or a gorgeous hideaway for two.

Are you weary of those bland chain hotels? Do you long for some fun and good taste – to be treated as a human being rather than as a client?
We have the chic, the rustic, the state-of-the-art and the traditional. Be pampered or left alone – or be treated as one of the family. We choose places that take special care of people. Readers will try one and want to try them all. Whether they're in wild places, moors, mountains, hamlets, or cities, each is exceptional. Sleep in barns, windmills, farms, castles, or cottages.
A passion for food bubbles on these pages: home-grown, organic, local, African, Mediterranean – all delicious.
Perceptive and honest write-ups together with color photographs include all the wonderful places we've inspected and like.
Alastair has built a team of talented editors who are as committed as he is to the search for authenticity and personality in places to stay. They are also 'driving' the world's first carbon 'neutral' publishing company; the search for a reduced ecological footprint is a serious one. The company has won The Queen's Award for Enterprise in the Sustainable Development category, an award from Business Commitment to the Environment and a Green Apple Award and moved to its own eco-offices in January 2006.
