With international travel rules changing day-by-day, it's no wonder that many of us are hoping to avoid disappointment by holidaying closer to home this year. As summer 2021 shapes up to be the season of the Great British Staycation, there's never been a better time to plan a UK break. Sign up for our newsletter to receive a free chapter of our Rough Guide Staycations Cotswolds - Cotswolds.
Our Staycation series brings you all the inspiration, ideas and practical advice you need to make the most of your time in well-loved UK destinations such as the Cotswolds, Devon & Cornwall, Jersey, Norfolk & Suffolk and Snowdonia & North Wales.
Each guidebook is packed with detailed itineraries for walks and tours, local highlights and time-saving tips, plus historical and cultural insights and essential maps. We also bring you insider advice and rainy-day recommendations, because we've all experienced the unpredictability of a British summer!
In October, we'll also be bringing you new guidebooks for the The Lake District and Brighton, Sussex & the South Downs. Each printed book will come with a free eBook as well as a free download of a Google maps walk.
By signing up to our newsletter, you will receive a first chapter for free - South Cotswolds from our Rough Guide Staycations Cotswolds.

In addition, don't miss our wonderful coffee table-style book, Rough Guides Make the Most of Your Time in Britain, a compilation of 365 memorable experiences from touring the Houses of Parliament to revelling in nature's glory at the Eden Project in Cornwall. We're equally proud of our Rough Guide Green Britain - coming soon! - which will focus on travelling with electric vehicles.
Wherever you're heading this summer, Rough Guides have got you covered. Happy travels!
