Covers Kent and Sussex, not Surrey

Reviewed on August 21, 2021
Paperback | Verified

There are only 10 pages in the book about Surrey of over 300 in total. Surrey seems to be included only because one of the suggested itineraries runs through the county.
The coverage for Kent and Sussex is good though, split into chunks by geography. The entries for each place are brief, but give enough information to allow you to decide whether to look further into them. There is good information on public transport and suggestions for accommodation and places to eat which is a nice touch.
The ebook provided for free is a nice extra, for me at least was only available as an Apple Book, but that means I can read it on my phone while out and about.
