This is the best atlas on the market for leisure driving, with a huge amount of detail on places to visit.
National and Forest Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty are clearly depicted, and the layer-coloured contours show upland and highland areas. Long distance footpaths, viewpoints, beaches, golf courses, campsites and caravan sites are all marked on the maps. A map of northern France marking the major hypermarkets is provided for drivers using the ferry ports and Shuttle. The unique feature of the atlas is its illustrated listings section, with 850 concise descriptions of properties owned by the National Trust, National Trust for Scotland, English Heritage, Historic Scotland and of gardens owned by the Royal Horticultural Society. The 176 pages of main road mapping are at the large scale of 3 miles to 1 inch (Northern Highlands and Western Isles at 4 miles to 1 inch). The mapping clearly marks roundabouts and multi-level junctions, and in rural areas distinguishes between roads above and below 4 metres wide - a boon for caravanners and drivers of wide vehicles.
The atlas also includes route-planning maps, an M25 map, 12 large-scale city approach maps, 55 extra-detailed town and city plans, airport and port plans. Numerous additional features include restricted motorway junction information, a distances chart, and a central London street plan. Also included is a map detailing National and Forest Parks, Long Distance paths and the unitary authorities.
