A walk by the sea followed by somewhere fabulous for lunch. That's the weekend sorted.
The Coastal Café Guide brings together around 150 independent cafés, seafood shacks, beach bars, restaurants and pubs dotted around the coastlines of England, Scotland and Wales.
From hidden beach cafés and brilliant little seafood cabins to places with glorious sea views that are worth planning an entire detour around, each has been chosen with an emphasis on independent businesses, local food and low food miles .
There are 10 regional maps to help plot your adventures, alongside gorgeous full-colour photography and plenty of inspiration for discovering stretches of Britain's coastline you might not otherwise have considered.
And it's not just for foodies. Whether you're a coast-path walker, wild swimmer, surfer, paddle-boarder, dog owner or simply someone incapable of resisting the words “Shall we go to the seaside?” , this is a particularly good book to keep in the car.
