Thatched houses in Wendover
Wendover pub
If you go down to the woods today you’re in for a big surprise, for the walking map has led you so far astray you wouldn’t believe your eyes. This is what we found when we embarked upon what should have been a relatively straightforward walk up to Coombe Hill, the highest point in the Chilterns and a fine view point. Our starting point was Wendover, a charming, picturesque town a few miles south of Aylesbury. The town contains everything we might have hoped for: thatched houses, a chocolate shop, an aviation gallery, bookshop, antiques shop, a fine clutch of hostelries and a canal.
