We meander around England and Wales on the most breathtaking roads, chugging up mountain passes and pootling along the coast. We show you stuff that's fun, often free. We include the best drives for different kinds of drivers; for surfers, wildlife watchers, climbers and walkers.

And you don't even have to own a camper van or motorhome – we'll tell you the many places you can rent one to take you on the journey. What really sets this book apart however, is that Dorey and his partner Lizzy have driven all these roads themselves. The author’s chatty prose really brings the journeys to life, ranging from poetic to gently humorous, all written with a cheerful and slightly ironic style.
