Location of a nice Pub

The chef is superb and thoroughly recommended by us! Suggest you book a table if the weather is poor because it is popular

Beautiful village and a great Sunday roast at the Bull and Butcher. Well worth the trip

The Chiltern Way long distance walking path climbs up the hill from Fingest through the wood to the summit of the hill in Adam's Wood. The woodland is a nice-mixed woodland with nice views back to Fingest village. The church with its unusual double spire is easily visible.

Ibstone House, formerly the home of the well-known (in her time, and deserving of study even in our times). She lived here with her husband Henry from the 1930s to the 1970s. Henry died in the 1960s and is buried in a graveyard near this house

This is a spectacularly picturesque village in the heart of the Chiltern Hills. Almost everything about it screams "quaint and English". Little wonder that this was where a lot of the sitcom "The Vicar of Dibley" was shot. At the foot of Turville Hill (easy to climb in a few minutes from the village), the village has the lovely St Mary the Virgin Church and a terrific pub. Overlooking the village from the hill is the Cobstone Windmill. In the spring and summer, the beautiful houses and their gardens are teeming with colourful flowers. Of beautiful English villages, this is one of the best I've ever seen. It makes you feel you're in the Cotswolds. That kind of thing.

This 12th century church's tower has quite unusual twin gables; and there is, apparently, only one other church in Britain that has such a design. Only one other church in Britain is thought to share this design. The tower once had two bells in it, but only one remains, dating back to 1830. Worth having a look!

A lovely bit of woodland just south of the village of Ibstone. Great for leisurely walks, with a combination of wide, fully-accessible tracks and narrower footpaths. The beeches - so common in this part of the world - stand proud all around you, and in the spring and summer you will see lots of bluebells in places.
