On the edge of Thame
Just returned from another 12 nights in this glorious location. An easy approach and a warm welcome from John, meant we were soon setup on our fully serviced pitch. Once through the electric gates, a new view opens up of a well kept grass area, the river at the back, free roaming chickens and bird song. It is a short walk into town and to either Waitrose or Sainsburys, and a good selection of shops, many being independent. We had a lovely meal in The Coffee House (near town hall), and there are a good selection of walks around the area, with maps available at the information point on the CL.
Our visit coincided with the 10th anniversary of the death of Robin Gibb, who lived in the town and is buried in the local churchyard, and to mark the event the local museum and Robins wife Dwina have setup a display of some of his personal items, including bikes, awards and clothing, and lots of family photos. It is free admission and well worth a visit, and the museum staff are very welcoming and friendly.
Out and about there are some lovely places to visit, Brill Windmill, Aylesbury, Haddenham Church and duck pond, and the Oxford P&R was fairly easy to use. (Don't use the obvious parking payment machines, but use the one machine near where you catch the bus from) which was £6.80 for parking and return bus to city centre (about 20 minute journey).
This was our 2nd visit to this CL and certainly won't be our last.
