The definitive annual guide to National Trust properties has received a make over. For the first time, there are colour photographs throughout, showing the stunning range of properties looked after by the Trust across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. To inspire visits, they show historic houses and their contents, beautiful gardens, coast, countryside and an array of other buildings, from workhouses and lighthouses to mills and dovecotes. Information on opening times, ways of getting there, and what is on offer at properties is presented in a fresh and clear form. Tables at the back of the book give information on properties that are open during the winter months, Christmas shopping opportunities, and where weddings and other functions can be held.
