Central Windsor with Parking - Out & About Information/Recommendations
Windsor Castle & local eateries
So many cafes surround Windsor Castle you'll be spoiled for choice. The Two Brewers at the top of the Long Walk by the castle is the best authentic English pub for a decent beer & snack!
Sit outside down by the river at Browns, The Boatman, The George or Cote Brasserie for lunch perhaps.
Take a boat out for half an hour and see the castle from the river.
Wander down to Windsor Racecourse Marina to Go-Gos for some sundowners later in the afternoon.
If you like a good farm shop then look no further than the Royal Windsor Shop, 5 mins drive from the flat, 20 mins walk. Windsor farm shop has wonderful fresh food from the Royal parkland and beyond. There is a cafe onsite too!
