Enjoy the delights of Buckinghamshire, a county over 50 miles in length but just 10 miles wide at its narrowest point, set right in the heart of rural England.

Buckinghamshire is one of the loveliest of the Home Counties and its Chiltern hills and beechwoods, beautiful River Thames and the rolling acres of Aylesbury Vale make it a place for visitors to enjoy.

Lovers of historic houses are spoilt for choice. Selections include the magnificent Rothchild treasure house of Waddesdon Manor, Benjamin Disraeli's home at Hughenden Manor, the 13th century Chenies Manor and the stunning Cliveden gardens high on the banks of the Thames.

Buckinghamshire is fortunate in being one of the English counties with the highest number of National Trust properties open to the public. In the county 13 houses, mills and monuments are open, some of them all year round.

Other gems nestled in the County include the magical award winning Roald Dahl Museum & Story Centre in Great Missenden; stunning landscape gardens at Stowe and over 2000 years of history captured in buildings at the Chiltern Open Air Museum.


For a great day out visit the Bucks Railway Centre; Bletchley Park - home of the famous 'Enigma' encryption machine or Bekonscot, the oldest model village in the world dating back to 1929.
