Responsible escapism is the moral of this book by eco-minded explorer Laura Burgess. Eco Escape is essentially a UK holiday guide for people who want to get off grid but do it using low carbon transport methods, eat slow food, and connect with places and people closer to home. Burgess believes that ‘the greenest travel options for ecoescaping are on our doorstep'. It's pretty easy to see the logic behind this but you'd be forgiven in this uber fast paced world for not knowing exactly what is sitting on you door mat.

The businesses recommended in this book were not only chosen on the merits that they fulfilled criteria of green accreditation schemes and government initiatives but also on the innovative ways they involved guests in the travel experience. For example giving people an insight into the local community and where their food, energy and other supplies were sourced from.
Covering the 50 of the best ecoescapes across the UK this book makes sure each region is covered including Scotland, The North of England, The Midlands, East Anglia, The South East and London, The South West and Wales.
This is a book every UK holiday-maker should pop in their suitcase. If you'd like to buy a copy click here.
