2012 September 06 Hedsor -
Chequers Inn


Twelve of us walked. A fine day, plenty of sunshine and not too hot. After a good start it suddenly went wrong and we found ourselves doing a 20 minute circular detour in Woolmans Wood. We managed to meet a lady with her dog THREE times on our detour. After that it got better and we followed the route pretty well. Interesting walk I thought - we walked along the river, across the rail bridge at Bourne End, passed the auction rooms, followed the old railway line to Wooburn Green and climbed the hill back up to Hedsor. About 4.7 miles in just over 2 hours (we were 5 minutes late getting back).

Five more joined us at the pub (totalling 17). This is a very nice pub and we were well looked after. They have a good car park, a lovely beer garden (which we took advantage of), some excellent beers (if a bit expensive at £3.60 per pint), a wide range of food at reasonable prices. I had a beef sandwich with salad and crisps for £5.75 - very good quality. They really do seem to consider their customers and that's why it very popular. I will give it 4 stars - no + as it was a bit expensive.
