You need a car!
This is quite a rural area and whilst there are great train connections to cities, there is very limited bus services.
The Farrow is located in an area where there are no public footpaths on the roads. Whilst the roads are not busy, at night it is not very safe as there is no street lighting.

Walks
This is a great area for walking. The Aylesbury Outer Ring runs almost past our door. On the link below, expand the map and The Farrow is between Aston Sandford and Kingsey.

Google maps also shows public paths. There is a nice circular walk from The Farrow that circles Haddenham and takes about an hour.

Cycling
We have many guests who bring their bikes. Our Courtyard area is secure for storing them. At a weekend we are clearly on a 'Strava route' based on the groups of cyclist using the country lane. The immediate local area is quite flat, but many test their abilities by cycling up to Brill or Whitleaf at Princess Risborough.
