From quaint little tea rooms that still serve drinks in china cups to
modern cafés staffed by trained baristas, the Lake District has plenty
to offer — and all surrounded by a truly breathtaking UNESCO World
Heritage landscape.
The ten tea shops in this book have been chosen partly on the basis
of the excellent walking that can be enjoyed from their doors, and
partly on the basis of the fare and ambience they have to offer.
They occupy village, lakeside and woodland locations. The walks
themselves take in hidden valleys, low fells, lakes, waterfalls,
riverside paths, fabulous viewpoints and wildflower-filled woods — a
tremendous array of the sort of scenery for which the Lake District has
become world famous.
This attractive and cleverly structured guidebook gives walkers the
ten best walks to the Lake District’s finest and most welcoming tea
shops and cafes in a popular pocketable format.
With clear information, an overview and introduction for each walk,
expertly written numbered directions, Ordnance Survey maps, superb,
eye-grabbing panoramic photographs, and interpretation of points of
interest along the way, these guides set a new standard in clarity,
appeal and ease-of-use.
