Writers' and Artists' Hideouts is a specialty travel guide for the writer who wants a vacation where they can do what they do best: write. Author and literary agent Andrea Brown describes about 600 places that might be interesting to artists and writers, including hotels, inns, bed and breakfasts, lighthouses, lodges and other unique locations where writers can get inspired and away from distractions. The listings include a concise paragraph description, contact information and a website address, if available. One of the listings is the beautiful Mill Rose Inn in Half Moon Bay, California, which Brown describes as a "two-story white building that you barely notice because the gardens, flowers, and trees cover most of it." The rooms at the Mill Rose Inn have private baths and some have bay windows -- perfect for the writer who wants a great view. Plus, you can't beat the full champagne breakfast! Hideaways for writers and artists are located nationwide, and there is something for everyone. Andrea Brown loves traveling and with her as your guide you are bound to be able to find a great place where you can both relax and tap into your creativity.
