We have now been on several of the walks in this book, predominanatly in the Sussex area, and have found it to be very useful and easy to follow.
The directions are very clearly set out, with maps, pictures and clearly stated directions, so that you can select the level of walk you want according to your ability, and follow it with ease. It is clearly set out, a nice size to carry and very detailed. We are not experienced walkers but have found this to be a great book to start our walks with and would highly recommend it to others.

I have been on a few routes from this book (on-road) and have been slightly disappointed with the indications and got off-trail a few times.

Clearly needs updating as well: some of the "landmarks" as postboxes or road signs have changed/disappeared... And please, I am not a gardener... What do I know what a cypress tree looks like?? (indication for a turn - there are a few like this..)
Maybe good to get ideas for routes but not very user-friendly to use for first time on each route.
