Boxford is a riverside village in West Berkshire that has a delightful church, St Andrews hails back to Saxon times, although the impressive tower was built in the 15th Century. The river is ideal for artists and photographers alike, as it’s perfectly placed in the beautiful Lambourne valley. Or perhaps the opportunity to glide along the Kennet & Avon Canal in a horse drawn Barge is one temptation too many, The Kennet Horse Boat Company offers a glimpse into past times, as the magnificent horse walks alongside. Or how about choosing one of the 220 seats on offer in a working Water Mill, that’s now a Theatre, set within beautiful gardens in a lovely location, it’s definitely a visit that’s rarely forgotten.. Or there is always Newbury Race Course, whether you are lucky enough to back the winner or not the atmosphere will certainly entertain, or perhaps you fancy a round or two, there is also an 18 hole Golf Course and Golf Academy complete with a twenty bay floodlit Driving Range, what more could be wished for perhaps a swim or a gymnasium, well it‘s all here. For an insight into intriguing exhibits from prehistoric times, to ballooning, costumes and so much more Berkshire Museum beckons........
