Invaluable guide to holidays where the good life matters.
What a great book
Organic Places to Stay is a great guide for folk seeking a truly green holiday - from basic self-catering to 5-star luxury - in my view it also works both ways in that those providing the holidays get the right type of customer who will really appreciate what is being offered.

I very much like this book and have found Linda and her web site very helpful.
As a telephone volunteer for (Electorensitivity.org) people who have severe sensitivities I am increasingly being asked for details of accomodation that is chemical free and not in vicinity of mobile phone masts, wifi etc.
This is extremley difficult and Linda has been most helpful.
Thank you.
Splendid publication. Great comments. Great photos.

Linda Moss has put together the perfect resource for a new wave of environmentally-thoughtful travellers.
There's no erroneous embroidered 'fluff' to wade through either, the book is fact-packed with all the information you need to choose a holiday destination that will tick all the boxes that are important to you, your family and the planet.

Extremely useful & well laid out guide to some fabulous accommodation.
A very original idea for a book in this world of saving the planet, going green and organic. Well done. Nice photos.
Invaluable guide, well presented & easy to use-indispensable
A very genuine holiday guide - you will not be disappointed.
If you like to live,travel and stay healthy then this little book is an absolute "must have".
Great guide written in plain and simple English.
Organic is critical to all of us, and this book is doing agreat job helping to bring suppliers to potential users
Fantastic and useful.
A great book from both points of view - for those in it who follow the organic ethos and those who travel with it. Organic = caring.
a great guide
THis book is an essential buy for all those people without access to computers that want an Organic B and B
I've had this book for a couple of years now and have used it on occasions. My only regret is that there aren't more organic places to stay!
A great companion to have for those spur of the moment breaks away. As a foodie I love to sample the local produce and enjoy discovering new places to stay.
This book is terrific. All B and B's and other places to stay throughout the world should be organic. I don't think any food should be riddled with pesticides.
Food that is grown with pesticides should be illegal.
A superb guide to some of the most beautiful, and green, places to stay in the UK and Ireland. A must ahve for anyone who wants a super holiday with a light carbon footprint
It's a great book Linda. I refer lots of consumers who are looking for organic holidays to buy it (and I even mentioned it in a letter to the Guardian!) Look forward to the next one!
A marvelous effort and a valuable resource.
Its abit like your own yacht - you don't have to use it but you know you can when you need to.
Well done Linda.
This a wonderfully useful book, impeccably researched and easy-to-use. As a green journalist, I often recommend it - it is reliable and accessible. Linda has been gathering information on organic places-to-stay for nearly ten years - she knows the scene. Where would we be without this book?
This book will inspire many people to go organic.It deserves an award.
Linda has devoted years to the promotion of ethical and organic places to stay and richly deserves her book to be recognised.
A very well thought out and artistically presented book which is of great use to organic enthusiasts like myself. Long may you continue to keep updating it.
A fantastic idea in an area not previously researched. A very useful book, well resourced, well written, and very well presented.
Well done Linda, I hope lots of people recognise the huge amount of effort you have put into producing this fascinating and very useful resource and cast their vote for Organic Places to Stay.
best wishes, I love the book.
Wonderful book - looks beautiful, well researched, and has got to know lots of hidden spots of Ireland and UK. As a travel journalist I find it invaluable. As a mother, it is full of places to take my children for weekend getaways. As a woman, it gives me ample choice of places to escape to alone also! Well done, Linda
I absolutely love this book, a comprehensive guide to organic and sustainable holidays, I've already booked my first weekend break away - thanks Linda for making my life so easy!
I heartily applaud Linda's vision and can highly recommend this comprehensive selection of organic holiday properties. In fact I will be checking through her listings and aim to try one out the first chance I get!
Fantastic guide to some of the best organic places to stay in the world - well done Linda for starting a super venture!
