Holiday Cottages Buckinghamshire

Buckinghamshire

Here's what you can see and do when staying at one of our cottages in Buckinghamshire.

As one of the ideal destinations for a short break staying in holiday cottages Buckinghamshire ranks high. It has a rich variety of landscapes; soft rolling hills and lush wooded valleys, wide, open vales, the meandering River Thames and dark dense forests. A Buckinghamshire cottage provides the perfect base for exploring this county, over a third of which is covered by the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Chilterns themselves stretch 75 miles from Bedfordshire through Buckinghamshire to Oxfordshire and are covered in impressive beech woods which are spectacular in the autumn, making the county a great destination for a short break.

To appreciate the vernacular heritage of Buckinghamshire a visit to The Chiltern Open Air Museum is recommended. It was established over 30 years ago with the aim of preserving some of the historic buildings unique to the Chilterns. Visitors can explore more than 30 buildings that span 200 years of history, all rescued from demolition.

Whilst travelling around the Chilterns don't miss the village of Turville which has been the location for many film and television scenes and most recently was Dibley in The Vicar Of Dibley. Nearby Hambleden was the home of William Henry Smith, founder of the book and newspaper chain W H Smith. He died in 1891 and is buried in the new cemetery. Lord Cardigan, famous for his role in leading the ill-fated Charge of the Light Brigade, was born in the Manor House. The sea chest that he took to the Crimea can be seen in the church.

Lovers of historic houses staying in one of our cottages in Buckinghamshire are spoilt for choice with perhaps the finest Waddesdon Manor, one of the best examples of a Victorian garden in Britain and Cliveden, with magnificent views over the Thames Valley and beyond. By selecting one of our holiday cottages Buckinghamshire and its many attractions can be discovered.
