What Amersham Offers on a Cottage Break
The market town of Amersham sits within Buckinghamshire within the protected
Chiltern Hills, a stunning area for walking and enjoying the great outdoors.
Amersham is essentially made up of two parts; Amersham on the Hill and Old Amersham. Amersham is mostly based on the hill and is a bustling commuter town with good links in to London with a good selection of shops and restaurants. At the base of the hill is Old Amersham, an area of town which offers plenty of olde-worlde appeal.
Step Back in Time at Old Amersham
Many visitors to Old Amersham are spellbound by the beauty and number of historical buildings. The main high street is incredibly wide and was originally designed for coaches as Old Amersham was one of the main stops for coaches pulled by horses historically. A number of the quaint pubs in Old Amersham were traditionally coaching inns. The ancient Church of St. Mary that was established in the 13th century present here is a major tourist attraction along with several of the old pubs.
If you love high end shopping you should enjoy shopping in Old Amersham as there are a number of high end shops and boutiques to browse around. There are also a number of restaurants including some fine dining options. Guided walks of the town are sometimes run from the museum on the High Street, pop in and ask them for details. In our experience these guided walks are easily the best way of exploring and learning about Old Amersham whilst taking a cottage break.
Old Amersham is quite an exclusive town and with property prices being extremely high in the area you are unlikely to find budget self-catering accommodation. You may find well-priced rentals in Amersham (the newer part) or in the nearby countryside.
