I run a small five-pitch campsite and the plastic-backed maps of our surrounding area (Castle Howard) are a marvellous tool to help our guests enjoy the nearby walks. I leave them in the washing up ar... See more

These maps are brilliant - based on OS, but a bigger clearer scale for walkers (not just phoyoenlarged). Delivery very efficient and quick, amazing value for money. A little bit of a fiddle to... See more

They are laminated and showerproof and come in a plastic sleeve with a limited OS Legend card (QR link to full Legend) that also has a scale ruler for map distance.

Excellent Navigation Aid!
Bought from YP on several occasions and have never been let down! Great Customer Service, lovely people to deal with and a top quality product at the end. If you walk, hike, camp and explore and have never purchased from this company......then why not!? Such a simple idea and a great way to avoid carrying a full size OS map if you don't need to. I highly recommend this company, try them, you won't be disappointed.

Nice quality map
Nice quality map - I wanted a map for the centre of the town and this map is a little squashed which is a shame but it is a good size and can easily fit in a bag to carry around

Thank you Caroline, have a great Christmas.
Helpful team!
For some reason I didn't get a confirmation email of my order so I emailed the team and they responded the very same day to say they'd got the order and were already processing it. Very helpful and prompt!

Sorry about the lack of email Elspeth, a gremlin in the system I think. We hope you like the map.

Thank you Sue, I guess we will have to thank Royal Mail as well.
The map is great
The map is great. It focusses on the main town, with the surrounding footpaths. It's a perfect size and the lamination is perfect.

Thanks John, we are a small company and value our customers. Have a jolly festive season (30 years ago it would have been a Merry Christmas).
It wasn’t what I ordered
I would like to apologise to yellow publications as I did receive the right map , I just had a blonde moment.

Hi Carl, I am very sorry but mistakes occasionally happen. All you had to do was contact us and we would have sent you a replacement by first class post. We will rectify this immediately and you should hopefully receive the correct map tomorrow or latest Monday. Please accept our apologies.

Thanks Lynn, happy walking.

These small maps are so handy when all that is required is a map of an area but not full sized ordanance survey map. For doing decent length walks they slip into a pocket, are water proof, and show everything a standard map does .
