I had a great time during my taster session because I felt safe in the equiment and my instructor Ben gave me encouragement and the confidence to push myself a little bit further. At the end of the session I was very pleased with what I had achieved with Bens coaching. I would definitely recommend the taster session to my friends. Thanks Big Rock.

My son had his 18th Birthday Go-Karting yesterday (24/04/2021) Jacob is really unique- he has autism & is very particular about certain things. We were helped by Charlie who was simply amazing from start to finish. He helped organise, plan, prepare such a brilliant party. Even during the (end of thankfully) the covid pandemic we couldn’t have asked for more. The strict covid rules were applied at all times & the karting is of a real high standard. Jacob is absolutely beaming at coming first (obviously pre arranged) and spoke for the whole rest of the day about it. What an amazing experience- thank you Charlie & FF team. Five stars from us all!!

Rebellion Beer Co. Ltd.

With a busy shop, membership club and monthly tour nights we are well worth a visit. Rebellion started brewing in 1993 in a small industrial unit in Marlow Bottom. In 1999 we moved to Bencombe Farm at the entrance to Marlow Bottom. We currently produce approximately 70,000 pints per week and you can find our beers in over 400 local pubs and clubs within a 30-mile radius of Marlow, in our brewery shop or in several local supermarkets and off-licenses. We have a busy brewery shop, selling our fresh beer in containers from 1 litre to 72 pints as well as over 300 varieties of wine and other local produce. Feel free to visit and have a browse...

We had a fantastic, memorable family experience here! The session was very well organised and managed, the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable, the animals were all well cared for and loved, and there were lovely extra touches such as the tea and cake, feeding the other animals as well as the alpacas, and the sweet little shop of souvenirs! The booking system was straightforward and effective, with clear information on what to expect and how to come prepared, as well as reminders running up to the event. We would definitely recommend the experience!

Malt The Brewery

Founded in 2012 by Nick Watson, this microbrewery is based at the heart of the Chiltern Hills and has a real focus on the natural ingredients that go into making fine real ales. This includes very British malted barley farmed on the Icknield series through to contemporary hops sourced from around the world. Whether you enjoy traditional British real ales like our Anniversary Ale or more contemporary and fruitier real ales such as Starry Nights, you’ll find something to suit your taste. Come and 'Taste The Chilterns'. Visit the brewery shop 7 days a week and see straight into the brewery hall, where all our ales are hand made. At our Tasting Station, enjoy an ale flight of 3 Malt Ales with tasting notes, a guided tasting with one of our knowledgeable team or on Sundays enjoy a brewer-led tour around the brewery with the Brewer. Tasting is a personal experience and we encourage you to taste our ales in whatever format works for you, whether it's 3 half pints or pints. It's entirely up to you. A range of options are available.

Spent a lovely couple of hours sampling 5 beers and learning all about the brewery and how the beer is brewed. All the beers sampled were excellent. I have been a customer for a few years now but until now hadn't done the tour. The head brewer is a really entertaining and knowledgeable bloke who has pitched this tour on the right level. His passion for his art are clear to see. This passion has created one of best breweries in the country producing award winning beers. The tour finished off with a pint of your choice in the lovely tasting bar and a complimentary pint glass to take home. Oh and a 10% discount in the shop. You really need to go on this tour!

This year the house and grounds have been decorated by the National Trust on the theme of a Winter Carnival and it is a really impressive display both within the house and in the grounds with a light show on the stables and also on the house and an "interesting" lighting show in the grounds. A really great day out and the Terrace Cafe is to be recommended

Set high above the Thames with far-reaching views, Cliveden’s impressive gardens and majestic woodlands capture the grandeur of a bygone era. There's lots going on around the estate whether it's for a gentle stroll through the formal gardens or a race through the woods with the children, dogs and adults - Cliveden has something for everyone, and everyone's welcome!

Such beautiful gardens need a visit. Families and dogs are welcome which is lovely to see. The water gardens and pools reminded us of Monets paintings. There is a playground for children, lovely sculptures about the gardens, lots of different specimens of trees and flowers including a rose garden planted with David Austin roses. The smell was delightful!

Visited this National Trust property which used to belong to Disraeli. The house is interesting and the story of Disraeli's two faiths (Jewish & Christian) was interesting as was the use of the hosue during the second world war for creating target maps of Europe. The volunteer guides were knowledgeable, attentive and interesting. Well worth a visit.

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park, home of the WW2 Codebreakers, was once Britain's best kept secret and is now a vibrant heritage attraction open daily for visitors to learn how the Codebreakers' breath-taking achievements helped shorten WW2 by up to two years.

Bletchley Park contains a beautiful mansion house, park and lake. Also houses The National Museum of Computing. After the war, it was taken over as a Management Centre and my father was sent there - his office was on the first floor, front of the mansion house, just right of the main entrance. I myself attended a two-week training course there in 1961 so I know it of old and the present. In 2005 I attended a wedding there, the ceremony was held in the library and after in the dance hall. It is open every day. Special Note: Only assistance and guide dogs allowed in. Summer opening: (1 Mar – 31 Oct) From 09.30 to 17.00. Winter opening: (1 Nov – 28 Feb) From 09.30 to 16.00. Online advance prices: Adult – £19.00, Concessions – £16.60 Child 12 to 17 – £11.40 Under 12 – FREE Family Ticket – £49.40, 2 adult & 2 child under 17. On the day prices: Adult – £20.00, Concessions – £17.50 Child 12 to 17 – £12.00 Under 12 – FREE Family Ticket – £52.00, 2 adult & 2 child under 17. During WW2, in 1938, Winston Churchill chose Bletchley Park to be the home of Station X, housing code-breakers, the most famous being Alan Turin who set up the world's first programmable digital electronic computer called 'Colossus'. The scores of wooden 'Huts' that were built in the park, many of which are still standing house historical exhibits, including part of a rebuilt Colossus I was embarrassed to see an old mechanical adding machine on display that I used myself in the 1960s!
