Outdo or activities

Beautiful local walks

With stunning countryside to enjoy, we are located directly on the Thames Path, with beautiful riverside walks in both directions. Just over the road lies Wytham Woods, 1000 acres of historic woodland, exceptionally rich in flora and fauna; it hosts 500 species of plants, and 800 species of butterflies and moths. And why not end your walk at one of the great local pubs?
