Location
Hitcham House has an ideal situation, within commutable distance from central London and Heathrow airport and is set within acres of preserved and protected grounds, including woodland, parkland and formal landscaped gardens amounting to about 9 acres. The area's excellent communication links include regular rail connections to London (Paddington) from Burnham, with connections to Marylebone (from 32 minutes) available from Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross stations. The M40 is about five miles away, whilst junction 7 of the M4 is two miles away, affording easy access to the M25 and Heathrow airport.
Everyday amenities can be found at Burnham or Taplow village about 1.2 miles away, whilst more comprehensive facilities are available in nearby Beaconsfield, Maidenhead and Windsor. Hitcham House owes much of its appeal to its unspoilt and secluded setting, in green belt on the edge of conserved mature beech woodland for which the area is renowned. Consequently, there are many scenic walks, cycle and bridle paths in the area. Comprehensive sport and leisure facilities can be found nearby; there are leisure centres at Cliveden and the Burnham Beeches Hotel. A number of golf clubs, including Burnham Beeches, Gerrards Cross, Stoke Poges and Denham are nearby. Racing is at Ascot, Windsor and Kempton Park and rowing in the fashionable riverside towns of Henley and Marlow.
