the white rabbit

Some odd places may take euros but you would be very lucky to find one I'd reckon. And its unlikely in the wilds. Tourist places may take them, but the rate may not be good. You will need sterling or use cards. All but a few places take cards these days, but as you say the quainter the less likely. Theres ATMs everywhere tho. Just carry enough cash for you next night or two. Even campsites take cards unless very rural. So enough sterling in case no one takes cards is how I do it when I'm roaming around. Mind you I dont get stung by card fees like you may.
