A pleasant green and flat site surrounded by mature trees with grass and hard standing pitches. Although there is still some doubt, Henley probably dates from the early 12thC and has many old and interesting buildings. Although the present ornate stone bridge over the River Thames dates from 1786, there is evidence of an earlier bridge dating from about 1170. In the town there are many antiques shops, art galleries and up market boutiques for you to wander around, or you can take a leisurely boat ride on the Thames travelling as far as Marlow or even Maidenhead. Henley is of course the home of the famous Regatta in June/July. This is followed a week later by the Music Festival. There is also a Traditional Boat Rally in July which involves the old wooden-built craft - a touch of nostalgia!

The site is a green oasis screened from the surrounding countryside by trees, yet within a mile of the M1; ideally situated to use as a base to explore London. Buses to Victoria pass the site, or take the train from Hemel, or the tube from Stanmore. Nearer to home the town offers a playground, bowling green and crazy golf. Within 2 miles there's a dry ski slope and a comprehensive leisure complex which boasts a waterworld of flumes and rides, an ice rink with a volcano, a cinema complex, ten pin and indoor bowling and two nightclubs. The historic old town centre holds a general market on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays as well as a craft market on Monday and antiques on Wednesday. Some road noise can be expected.

Very conveniently placed not far from both the M25 and M40, but surprisingly green, and screened by good trees. London is only eighteen miles away, and you can reach it by train from Denham Green into Marylebone. If the capital is not for you, visit Windsor for the lovely castle looking almost unreal above the town and valley, and Savill Garden in the Great Park. Also within easy reach is Beaconsfield for the Bekonscot Model Village, Runnymede for its Magna Carta associations, or even Oxford with all the architectural splendours of the colleges. Don't ignore the Thames - you can enjoy small towns like Marlow and Henley for river trips. For quieter pursuits, visit Cliveden, once the home of the Astors, or West Wycombe Park, both now looked after by the National Trust and for walkers, Denham Country Park, and the Grand Union Canal towpath offers hours of easy exercise.
