TT6.
Having downloaded the latest National Trust list of POI's, how is the best way to quickly find the one you wish to visit ? What I mean is, selecting the POI destination option brings you to, POI in City, POI along route, POI near home, POI near destination ??? So, I want to go to some obscure house/garden...without picking one of the above options, I'm stuck and can't go any further.

If you pick POI Near You option it will list them in distance from your position - scrolling down will allow you to pick the one you want. Probably not the simplest way - but it does work. It's a problem if there are hundreds of POIs in the category though.

If you know the name then you can use Find to Input part of a Name and the TT will usually find it. It looks for any match on any thing you type in.

If you know it's near to a town, use POI in city, and then as above.

It will even Search the telephone number, if you know it. ;)
