Over 200 personally selected pubs, restaurants and hotels just off motorway junctions

The definitive guidebook for motorists who use the increasingly gridlocked motorways and want to find attractive alternatives to service stations to eat, sleep or rest.

Each entry has been personally selected by the author, based on merit and character and are included free of charge to maintain objectivity.

The guide is fully illustrated with pen and wash drawings by the author, detailed maps including petrol stations, postcodes for SatNav and places of interest nearby. Contact numbers and the last orders for food are given. Particular mention is made of places that welcome dogs and children.

This informed and personal guide is for those looking for a pleasant meal, accommodation, a rest or just a break 5 minutes away from the rat race.
