Anyone Ever Been On A Break To Eton?

[bednobs]

deal on groupon today - i live fairly close to eton and am looking for somewhere to go overnight for our first night away without baby. Is it nice?

[mazie]

Well would you gness?.... I know I wouldn't...I have a greenhouse ;o)

[gness]

And I have a shed. ;-)

[Psybbo]

A well used shed?

[mazie]

:o) As good as a greenhouse

[bednobs]

a bit better than a greenhouse unless you are an exhibitionist i think!

[gness]

No complaints from Tony but a greenhouse is warmer.

[gness]

At my age, Bednobs no-one would hang about to look. :-(

[sunny-dave]

I have a 'shed with windows' ... ;)

[Psybbo]

Bednobs, enjoy and I anticipate maternity leave later in the year, hugs and enjoy xx

Sir Christopher Wren Hotel

and a little further away Pennyhill Park (though not cheap)

Pennyhill Park`s miles away from Eton. Runneymeade is nice but you need a car. I`ve put a question on our forum. I`ll let you know if anything interesting comes up.

[gness]

Don't let Tony know that Dave....he'll want modifications here.

Oooooo.....bednobs....maternity leave! That would be so nice. x

[bednobs]

thanks.

have you thought about Maidenhead? The Walton Cottages

or Marlow: The Compleat Angler or there used to be a nice pub the Hand and Flowers in the centre.

and if you wanted a majorsplurge, the Waterside Inn at Bray (though at that point, I would go for Le Manoir aux Quatres Saisons.

[DTCwordfan]

15 miles to Pennyhill from Eton.

lol Douglas.

[bednobs]

thanks for your suggestions DT but as per my question there is a deal on a hotel in eton on groupon today which is why i'm considering eton

[DTCwordfan]

which one, bednobs?

[237SJ]

I`m not sure what time they start (I`m thinking April) but you can do some really nice river cruises down the Thames. There is one that goes from Windsor to Maidenhead and back. That is a really pleasant (and fairly cheap) afternoon out. The Long Walk in the grounds of Windsor Castle is good. There is another walk that you can do at Runnymeade but I can`t remember the name. It`s probably Googleable though.
