Howe Keld Awards and Reviews
Rick Steves has created one of the best known and respected travel organisations in the USA. He regularly appears on his own programmes on PBS TV stations across the States and has a large and very loyal following. Since he knocked on our door 15 years ago we are delighted to say that we have been listed in his guide for Great Britain every year. In 2008 he received special recognition by the President at the White House for his service to tourism and international relations.
We have been listed in the prestigious “Special Places to Stay” by Alastair Sawday. His guide books list those quality businesses considered special and different so we are absolutely delighted to be included. We think his travel guides and organisation are really special themselves and his commitment to green issues is exemplary.
Wonderfully written and beautifully published, our verdict on Alastair Sawday's guides - Brilliant!
