  Katie Wood visited many of the country's best country house hotels as a form of recreation and subsequently decided to turn her professional eye on them. Concentrating mainly on the weekend and overnight market, it is aimed at people who would regard a stay in one of these hotels as a treat. However, it also caters for the wealthier tourist market. There is a brief history of each hotel, a full description of interiors and design, menu, bedrooms, grounds, facilities, and local attractions and amenities. There are 127 country house hotels included in the guide and the book is the result of several years of research. Katie Wood is the author of Europe by Train .
