About the Village
Wilstone is a friendly and welcoming village, perfect for people of all ages, whether you're looking for a close-knit community or a quiet retreat. At the heart of village life is the community shop, the hall, the pub, and a variety of local events that bring residents together. There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in village activities, but for those seeking privacy, the community is equally respectful of a quieter lifestyle.
For dog owners and nature lovers, Wilstone is a haven. Surrounded by stunning countryside, the village offers excellent walking routes across fields, woodlands, and alongside local reservoirs and the Grand Union Canal.

The community-run shop provides essential groceries, fresh produce, and household supplies, making it a convenient place to pick up daily necessities.
Wilstone also boasts a small but active Church of England congregation that hosts regular coffee mornings and events, a well-established farm shop selling fresh local produce, and allotments for those with a passion for growing their own fruit and vegetables. The village hall is a central hub, hosting exercise classes, social gatherings, and film nights, while the adjoining recreation ground provides a play area for children and outdoor fitness equipment for adults.
For those needing transport links, there is a bus service connecting Wilstone to Tring and Aylesbury, while Tring and Cheddington train stations offer fast connections to London in under 40 minutes.
This delightful home offers the perfect balance of character, convenience, and community, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a welcoming village lifestyle.
