Visiting High Wycombe & Exploring Buckinghamshire
Motorway connections to London, Heathrow and Oxford are close by, yet the farm is situated down a track away from the hurly-burly of modern-day life. The farm drive is a bridle path, which leads to many beautiful walks along with a network of footpaths. The village of Penn is a 20-minute walk, along footpaths, with a choice of 4 pubs.

In days gone by, High Wycombe was the halfway coaching stop for travellers from London to Oxford. Derehams Farm is ideally situated for visiting Windsor, Henley, Ascot, Marlow, London, Oxford and many beautiful National Trust properties in the surrounding area. The farm is a 30 minute drive from Heathrow Airport and 60 minutes from Gatwick, so an ideal venue for your first stop on arrival in the UK.
