The wide, tree-lined market place in Brackley, with its Georgian and Victorian houses and shops, is the delightful setting for this 13th century coaching inn. Enjoy idyllic leisurely walks along bridleways and footpaths with two major walkways: the Knightley and Grafton Ways (both well signposted). Nearby you can also find Stowe Gardens and Park, the largest landscape garden in Britain, which boasts a magnificent Georgian garden full of romantic temples and lakes. The ideal base for exploring Banbury, Buckingham, Oxford and Northampton, the Crown's comfortable surroundings offer a cosy retreat coupled with good old-fashioned hospitality after a long day's travelling.
