Hambleden

Appearances include 'Blood Will Out', 'Down Among the Dead Men' and 'Who Killed Cock Robin'.

Midsomer murderers must wait their turn in Hambleden. Film crews come flocking to capture the impeccably charm of its quaint post office, pub and church and the brick and flint cottages grouped round the village square. The long list of screen successes filmed here includes Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, 101 Dalmatians, Sleepy Hollow and the New Avengers, Band of Brothers, A Village Affair, Poirot, Rosemary & Thyme and Down to Earth.

Head for Hambleden Mill at Hambleden Lock, featured at the end of Stranglers Wood, to catch a Salter Brothers passenger boat to Marlow or Henley. Cross the river by a series of footbridges to pick up The Thames Path National Trail: turn left for a short stroll to the Flower Pot Hotel at Aston or right to walk to Henley, following the course of the Royal Regatta.
