Location and what's nearby

23 High Street, Windsor, Berkshire SL4 1LH

A noble town indeed, this privileged borough of Berkshire is home to the Royals and has been so to many before them. The Thames snakes its way through the town centre, connecting Windsor with delightfully preppy Eton. With a sprawling great park at its entrance, the castle and cobbled lanes full of independent and high-end high street shops, Windsor is a great place for a short break. Should you wish to venture out, nearby you'll also find Ascot and the surrounding home counties of Hampshire and Surrey.
