Field notes
The homepage lays out three scheduled itineraries, connecting each destination to a distinct set of books, films, or folklore. Its Yorkshire route names Haworth, Whitby, Castle Howard, York, Harrogate, and Fountains Abbey; the Ireland listing specifies eight nights at Gregans Castle Hotel. The site also offers free place guides and reading lists, including to people who do not travel.
