Great Kingshill, situated
mid way between Great Missenden and High Wycombe is a quiet
Chilterns hamlet. It boasts two shops! Alongside the common
is the local Spar store, which offers everything you'll need,
and at the top of Cryers Hill is a Post Office/Nisa Local shop. The countryside
surrounding Great Kingshill is lovely, with lots of woods and
footpaths to walk around.
The Red Lion, also
by the common, is a comfortable and welcoming pub which also has a restaurant.
