The things we love about living here

We enjoy cycling/walking to local shops, cinema, gym etc. There are many pubs and restaurants nearby. Maidenhead is on the tube (Elizabeth line) so we can be in central London in 45 minutes (Tottenham Court Road) by train or 40 minutes by car. We often travel up to London to meet friends and family and enjoy the theatre, galleries, markets etc. We are near the M4 and not far from Windsor and the famous river towns of Marlow and Henley etc. We are close to the Thames where we paddleboard and kayak.
