This book looks great

This book looks great. Very informative and I think perfect for the person I bought it for. I like the way each venue is pictured opposite the information in a concise way on the page. Good quality informative book that shouldn’t go out of date as most of the places are old.

Three book set on London …

We bought the three set pack of London books & all are excellent. They’re not ‘over wordy’ but make great suggestions as to visits, food & drinks - allowing the user to form their own opinions & dig deeper into the history / content if desired. Lovely coffee table reading & lots of ideas & inspiration.

Beautiful and informative

Saw Secret London promoted on Facebook and decided to buy for my son as a Christmas present. Easy to order and speedy delivery. It’s a beautiful book with great photography and, of course, insight into some of London’s best kept secret places. Highly recommended.

Been looking for a Secret London book…

Been looking for a Secret London book for a while now and came across this one. It is wonderful. Packed with places in London outside the regular sights. I am so pleased with it! Ordering was easy and delivery quick.
