The Thames Path is a long distance walking trail, following England’s best known river for 184 miles (294 Km) as it meanders from its source in the Cotswolds through several rural counties and on into the heart of London. On its way the Trail passes the peaceful water meadows rich in wildlife, historic towns and cities and many lovely villages (including where we are located in Shiplake) and finishes at the Thames Barrier in Woolwich just a few miles from the sea.

You’ll find the Baskerville just a stones throw from the river making it perfect watering hole for hungry walkers seeking a hearty Ploughman’s or homemade pie on a Thames Path ramble – muddy boots and soggy dogs are most welcome!
