Tattenhoe Valley Park is lovely. It’s a long linear park but it’s good because it runs either side of a stream and there are plenty of ponds for wildlife and such like. You could walk up one way and down the other. There are various bridges which cross it.

Whaddon is a small village just outside Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire. It is at the heart of the ancient Whaddon Chase, a former royal hunting ground, now a designated area of Special Landscape Interest. The village has an interesting history. Nearby are the earthworks of a former Benedictine priory, Snelshall Priory. Whaddon Hall served as Section VIII of the MI6 during the Second World War, a branch of Bletchley Park’s operations. There are a number of paths and bridleways to explore in the countryside surrounding the village. Afterwards, the New Lowndes Arms is a good place to refuel. Its Sunday roasts have an excellent reputation.

The small market town of Winslow has retained its olde worlde charm. Half-timbered buildings, some dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries, stand proud in the town centre. Its 13th-century church is of particular note. It contains unusual paintings of St Christopher and an interesting portrayal of the murder of Thomas Beckett. Nearby is Claydon House, a National Trust managed estate set in beautifully unspoilt countryside.
