The Good Parks Guide is the ultimate compendium of over 500 of
the best public, countryside, urban and historic parks in the UK. This illustrated,
full-colour book is compiled in conjunction with GreenSpace and the Royal
Horticultural Society (RHS), to encourage people to get out more and make
the best use of their local and national parks and green spaces.
Divided into 12 regions, the guide travels from Cornwall to London’s Royal
Parks, Wollaton Park in the East Midlands and as far as the Highlands. Each park
includes a brief description of why and when readers should visit, with inspiring
and helpful full-colour photography throughout.
- A brief description of each park outlining highlights, history and key features, events and attractions.
- Full contact details, opening times and admission prices.
- A guide to important or interesting gardens, sporting and fitness areas, and eating and parking facilities.
- Key maps in each section to help direct readers to parks.
