Liam and Sylvie are the loveliest land lords and couldn’t do more to make people feel welcome. They were so nice to us and our puppy when we first got her, even bringing their lovely dogs down to meet her. Fab selection of gins too! Only a shame we haven’t been able to get a table recently due to covid measures but we look forward to returning. We are so lucky to have such a great local.

Terrific selection of beers, both on tap and bottles etc. to take away (buy your own "growler" for environmentally friendly refills). Inside is comfy and cool with sofas and bar-stools; outside is a bunch of tables and chairs where you can lounge in the sun. It's very dog-friendly and, besides the excellent ales, there are posh gins, pork scratchings and pies and, according to my daughter; the best orange juice in the country.

Quainton Windmil is a historic windmill in the village of Quainton, Buckinghamshire. The six-storey brick tower mill was built 1830-32, is one of the most visible buildings in the village.
Stunning 6-storey windmill - the 3rd tallest in the country - currently undergoing top-notch restoration - so missing its sails. Arrived mid-morning during the week not knowing if they were open, but Nick a member of the family (who has owned the windmill since it was built), was happy to give me a full in depth personal tour of the windmill for free! Though i'm hasten to add that they gratefully accept donations to help with its restoration. Whilst it was a long sometimes dirty hot slog to get to the roof, the views from the tail deck were simply stunning on a sunny April morning (yes, a rarity!!!). Nick's knowledge of the history and workings of the mill were excellent. I'll definitely be bring the kids back to visit this relic of a bygone age when wing was used to grind corn! Highly recommended - though do check when they're open.

Orchard View Farm is a working farm with a cafe, farm shop and butchery hidden away in a small hamlet in Little Meadle. About Us... Our farm is family run and staffed by quite the loveliest people we know. Together we are building a ‘home from home’ for family and friends to gather and enjoy our lovingly prepared food, surrounded by the beautiful animals that keep this place running. Our philosophy is simple; we believe that our animals deserve the very best and that our customers deserve exactly the same. That means a great quality of life for our animals and great quality food at great prices for our customers. All of our food is fresh from the farm or selected from fabulous local suppliers, we are open six a days a week, all year long.
Stopped off to visit the farm shop and discovered they also have a cafe. When I say cafe, it is much more than that, as the meat comes from the farm butcher. My daughter had slices of lamb with Greek salad, I had a picnic box with scotch egg, half a homemade sausage roll, home made quiche and some coleslaw and my wife an avocado, bacon and chicken salad. Everything tasted really fresh and the lamb was so tender, having been cooked on the open grill. Really well thought out, too, with the social distancing etc; order and pay via the website, so make sure you have a phone. Couldn’t fault it and we’ll definitely be back...the rib eye steak and wine for £20 really took my eye! Only thing I would suggest, for lunches, are smaller bites like a steak sandwich, bacon and Brie sandwich etc

Take a moment to look up and take in every aspect of this wonderful church. Everything about it is quintessential English. Enjoy the views and take a moment to read the headstones in the graveyard and wonder about the lives of those buried here. The church is featured in the sitcom 'The Vicar of Dibley.' Well worth a visit.

An absolute gem of a museum that is well worth the journey just short of an hour from London. Great for fans of military history, WWI and WWII, and those connected to the Polish contingent who were stationed here during WWII and supported the allied effort. Our journey here was by public transportation, We took a train from the Marylebone Station to Wendover. From the station its a short walk to your right then a left at the main street continuing to the Clock Tower. From there, you have an option of taking bus #8 or continuing to walk another roughly 20 minutes to arrive at the base. The museum is only open on Tuesdays. You will need to show ID to get on the base. The Trenchard Museum is small, but tells the story of the technical training arm of the Royal Air Force. A number of exhibits show the various types of training that was provided here. Our visit was specific in looking for information connected to my dad’s time here in the 1940s as part of the Polish contingent. We were fortunate to be able to view the archives in a second building where we were able to view photos, letters, stories and articles about the 300+ Polish boys who attended RAF Halton - including references to my dad. This was a much unanticipated treasure trove. We returned from the archives to the museum and browsed the exhibits. Included is a special display devoted to the Polish boys who served here. Also of note was an exhibit detailing the training undertaken by the armory apprentices. We end our visit with a viewing of a memorial on the grounds to the Polish contingent of RAF Halton. A rich history is presented at the Trenchard Museum that explains the important contribution of all who attended and served here, including the not widely known Polish chapter of the story.
