See & Do

See & Do
See how the other half live with a trip to one of the many stately homes in the area such as Hughenden Manor (once home to Benjamin Disraeli), Basildon Park,  and Grey’s Court. Garden lovers may prefer the Herb Farm in Sonning Common, or a wander through the quads and college greens of scholarly Oxford.

There’s plenty of walking to be had along the Thames towpath and in the Chiltern Hills. Hire a Thames motor cruiser a boat for the day when you get tired of footslogging and putter down to Henley on Thames, with its pubs and antique shops.
