Sometimes we need a simple change of scenery to transport us from the hectic reality of our everyday lives, and usher us into a simpler and more idyllic time. The pace of our existence has sped up dramatically over the recent years. We live in a world of constant demands for our time, as our email inbox and social media clamor for our attention. Fear of missing out drives us to check our smartphones far too frequently in a given day, and at our jobs managers seem to want even more productivity with far too few breaks or even thanks.
Fortunately, there is an antidote to our overly revved, frenetic world. Every so often we need to simply step off the treadmill, take a break and get back to the peace of the beautiful, natural world. A weekend spent touring the countryside may be the perfect solution. No where to have to go, yet with discoveries to be made is an ideal remedy. Perhaps a beautiful destination, such as Bray, in the Berkshires would bring gentle bliss and restoration to our body and soul.
For An Ideal Experience, Hire a Car
If you want to tour in style and really enjoy your journey, consider finding the perfect vehicle for your idyllic jaunt. Bray car hire has a variety of makes and models on offer, and you can choose from both manual and automatic transmissions. You might also consider an electric vehicle if you want to be kind to the environment and save on petrol.
Instead of being squeezed into a smaller car you might use for your commute, you can hire a more luxurious vehicle with plenty of room. You will feel like you are touring in style when you outfit your group with a car like that.
Treat Yourself to a Michelin-star Restaurant
You might feel like Bray, also known as Bray on Thames, is a sleepy village. Yet this 16th century treasure with its landmark flint church also contains another secret, one of the more delightful kinds. It is a gastronomical capital, and boasts not one but two Michelin-star restaurants.
In the center of the village, you will find Heston Blumenthal’s renowned Fat Duck, which is praised for its wonderful, experimental cuisine. Food is not simply a meal here; it is an experience and a “journey”. Close by your will see the second Michelin award winner, the Waterside Inn of Alain Roux. It features stunning French cooking and cuisine.
Enjoy the Beautiful, Tranquil River
Before, or perhaps after, your heavenly dining experience, you are going to want to make time to explore the town and the tranquil river setting. You will find lanes of cottages with lovely gardens and a beautiful section of the Thames that harkens back to a more peaceful time.
Along the Thames in Bray, you can simply relax and while away part of the day watching the boats float by. There are also several other wonderful hamlets nearby that you can walk to and explore.
