A well-preserved market town with a broad high street, weekly markets, and a mix of independent businesses, set on the edge of the Chilterns.

“Classic English Market Town - Clean, Calm and Cosy”
by Jess W – June 2025

Really liked Thame - it's tidy, quiet and very walkable. There's not loads to do, but I enjoyed the mix of old buildings, independent shops and tearooms. Felt very safe on my own and didn't get that "what are you doing here?" vibe you sometimes do in smaller places.
