Mini Escapades around the British Isles
£17.50
“She’s done it again! Beautifully compelling us all to curiously wander!”
The British Isles, encompassing thousands of islands both big and small, are like sparkling rough-cut gems sprinkled into the North Atlantic. Discovering their diverse and jaw-dropping landscapes are like treasures waiting to be dug up.
As a wonderful compilation of original short stories closer to home – Mini Escapades around the British Isles, Zoë Cano captures the very essence of Britain’s natural beauty with eclectic travels she’s taken over the years exploring England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Unsurprisingly, these journeys turn into mini adventures that include motorcycling around the legendary Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland, slowly exploring Wales on a scooter, living in a little camper van to discover the remote Scottish Highlands and bravely sailing across the English Channel during the total Eclipse of the Sun.
With Zoë’s never-ending appetite for experiencing new places, and always up for a challenge, these tales will make you chuckle out loud but also flood your roaming imagination.

Zoe’s done it again! Yet another cracking read from this talented author. I don’t know what it is that makes a good travel writer but this lady certainly has it in abundance.
“Mini Escapade Around the British Isles” This time she travels by Campervan, Motorcycle’s, Scooter & Boat. (the boat option is certainly not for me!!).
Had Covid 19 not struck we were going to spend most of this September in the Highlands & on the NC 500 in our van, but decided to postpone until things settle down. This new book came just at the right time, it enabled me to have my Scotland fix without even leaving home! It also whetted my appetite for Wales & Ireland.
Betsy was indeed right Zoe, you have done well, long may you continue to do so & may the luck of “Sea The Stars” stay with you.

What a great read ‘Mini Escapades Around the British Isles’ is, from this talented and well travelled author Zoe Cano. I can’t think how I have missed her previous books until now so have them on order. The attention to descriptive detail and the variety of modes of transport exploring the not so well trodden areas around the UK, I enjoyed the variety of the stories. Reading the book made me want to get my motorbike out and go off exploring myself!
