The South Downs Way by Martin King

The South Downs Way by Martin King

The South Downs Way is a long bridle path which runs for 100 miles between Eastbourne in East Sussex and Winchester in Hampshire. This historic route is visited by over a million people each year, and runs through some of southern Britain's most beautiful countryside. The path's chalky soil makes it a perfect surface for cycling, horse riding or a leisurely stroll, and has always been popular with tourists. The South Downs Way is a comprehensive guide to the area's history and that of the towns and hamlets it passes through. The book provides essential information about the best accommodation, pubs and cafes en route. It also details little known places of interest, provides handy tips and useful addresses and a selection of detailed maps - ensuring even the poorest navigators won't get lost. The guide is interspersed with hilarious anecdotes from the author's own experiences of walking and cycling the South Downs Way. It makes excellent reading both as a functional guide and a wonderful account of the surprises and eccentricities of the English countryside. The South Downs Way is essential for everyone visiting this beautiful and secluded area of Britain be they seasoned travellers or simply day-trippers.

Martin King is the author of A Boy's Story and On the Cobbles: The Life of a Bare-Knuckle Gypsy Warrior and co-author of the best-selling titles Hoolifan and The Naughty Nineties.
