Things to do around Buckinghamshire

If you're planning a day out in Buckinghamshire, this picturesque county in South East England offers a wealth of activities for all ages. From historic sites to outdoor adventures, here are some delightful options:

1. Bekonscot Model Village & Railway, Beaconsfield:
- Explore the Bekonscot Model Village and Railway, officially the oldest model village in the world. Constructed in the late 1920s, it comprises seven model towns and villages spread across 1.5 acres of gardens, connected by a model railway. Kids and adults alike will enjoy discovering coal mines, castles, farms, and racecourses in this quirky attraction.

2. Hughenden Manor, High Wycombe:
- Managed by the National Trust, Hughenden Manor was the former home of Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli. Explore the house displaying his personal belongings, learn about World War II, and enjoy extensive gardens styled as they were during the Disraeli era. The nearby St Michael and All Angels Church is the final resting place of the former Prime Minister and his wife.

3. Chiltern Hills & the Ridgeway National Trail:
- For outdoor enthusiasts, venture into the Chiltern Hills. Enjoy scenic walks, rolling landscapes, and fresh air. The Ridgeway National Trail offers breathtaking views and a chance to connect with nature.

4. Roald Dahl Museum & Story Centre, Great Missenden:
- Visit the Roald Dahl Museum dedicated to the beloved children's author. Explore interactive exhibits, discover Dahl's creative process, and immerse yourself in the magical world of his stories. It's a treat for both kids and adults.

5. Royal Standard of England, Beaconsfield:
- Drop by the Royal Standard of England, one of Britain's oldest pubs. With its thatched roof and historic charm, it's a cozy spot for a drink or a traditional meal.
