More about Horton

Buckinghamshire, England

Horton sits quietly in Buckinghamshire, far enough from the noise to let you breathe but close enough for a quick pub lunch. We know that sometimes the best plans are the ones made over tea at home rather than rushing off to some grand spectacle. There is always a market stall set up near the church or a local band playing in the village hall if the weather holds. Near Here keeps track of those little gatherings so you don't have to scroll through a dozen screens on a Sunday morning.
