Nature in all its splendour has an awe-inspiring effect on mere mortals, and at the Fox Country Inn in Wycombe, this feeling is magnified by the surrounding beauty. Comfortably furnished, this is a splendid location for business meetings, but if the thought of spending precious time cooped up inside a conference room horrifies you, there's no better place to explore the countryside.

All that walking and hiking is bound to build an appetite and the restaurant at Fox Country Inn is a great place to assuage your hunger pangs. Expect starters like tomato and pine nut risotto, followed by veal and kidney medallions with mushrooms à la crème, spinach and Madeira sauce. It might be advisable to forgo the habit of counting calories as you indulge in the trio of chocolate mousse with wild cherries for dessert. Step inside the bar to enjoy their local and international wines or beers as you relax and unwind.
