Location
The Knowle is set within three acres of an exceptionally private and gated location. This charming house with mature gardens is probably one of the closest grand houses within ten minutes walking distance of the village of Great Missenden.
The village has several charming gift shops and boutiques, as well as doctors’ surgeries, a dentist, a convenience store with post office and a supermarket. Great Missenden’s high street boasts a surprising selection of eateries considering its modest size. There are also country pubs aplenty in the village and surrounding area.
The village is perhaps best known as the home of beloved children’s author, Roald Dahl and wrote his classic works of literature in a writing hut at the bottom of the garden, now on display at The Roald Dahl Museum in the village.
Great Missenden offers great commuting to Central London (50 minutes by train and just 35 miles driving).
