Whether you're heading for the Sierras or the coast, the wide-open plains or the cosmopolitan and historic cities, this gorgeous guide is awash with authentic places to stay. There are simple Casas de Aldea (small traditional houses in remote rural settings), restored monasteries and palaces and modernist buildings with all the contemporary designer trimmings. You can immerse yourself in Spain's ever-changing landscape, from the majestic mountains of the Basque country to the surfing paradise of southern Spain. You can savour the wines of Rioja, the paellas of Valencia, the tapas of San Sebastian. We look for what we like, and we celebrate the beautiful and the unusual. It is the combination of fresh, honest write-ups, colour photographs, clear symbols and excellent maps, directions and quick reference indices that makes the Sawday's guides so popular with readers - and helps put the ninth edition of Spain at the top of the best-seller list.

Alastair Sawday has built a team of talented editors who are as committed as he is to the search for authenticity and personality in places to stay. They are also 'driving' the world's first carbon 'neutral' publishing company; the search for a reduced ecological footprint is a serious one. The company has won The Queen's Award for Enterprise in the Sustainable Development category, an award from Business Commitment to the Environment and a Green Apple Award and moved to its own eco-offices in January 2006.
