Northamptonshire offers a wide range of attractions and places of
interest to suit all tastes; bustling market towns, stately homes
and gardens, country walks, theatres and waterways are just some of
the delights to be found.
There is also a
lot to see and do in the surrounding area. Northamptonshire is just
over an hour's drive from London and within easy reach of
Shakespeare's Stratford-upon-Avon, the university cities of Oxford
and Cambridge and magnificent Warwick Castle.
Easy to reach by road, rail or plane, Northamptonshire is an
ideal location to unwind, relax and experience the traditional
qualities of rural England. Walk knee deep in blue bells, along
serene waterways, through winding country lanes and footpaths,
and around charming thatch and stone villages. Wander through
stately homes discovering art treasures and glorious gardens,
explore historic market towns in search of fine footwear,
antiques, locally produced food fayre and speciality shops.
