John Watney, author, photographer and yachtsman, has visited and observed many such places which are not only a delight to visit but in some cases a challenge to reach. Many little known, and all unspoilt, the author suggests walks, details places of interest, and provides guidelines to historical, artistic and cultural associations.
From Scotland to Cornwall, and Ireland to Norfolk, most of the locations featured in the text are navigable. Where a location is not navigable the author has suggested access by road or footpath. With the help of Ordnance Survey references included in the book and the author’s photographs, the reader and enthusiast will be able to visit many new and exciting places including Tollesbury and Old Hall marshes RSPB reserve; Kentmere and the River Kent; Lochs Scavaig and Coruisk, Isle of Skye; and Lochs Laxford and Roag, Isle of Lewis.
