Stony Stratford Online=======Virtual Vacation
   
 
 
   
Travel here by car, or by rail (via Wolverton, home of the Royal train), by bus, or by bike - though please use a warning instrument when coming up behind anyone on pedestrian pavements.

It would be colourful if people could arrive in horse drawn mailcoaches, as in the days when their passengers swapped Cock & Bull stories in our ancient inns. But the old stables tend to have been converted into theme restaurants, eg as with the Bull's Mexican restaurant, Las Cuadras (The Stables).

The High Street
   
The Crown, Market Square
Check in at one of the hotels festooned with international quality insignia, a friendly pub, or one of the congenial family run bed and breakfast establishments.

Stony might even be styled the (respectable) Soho, or Montmartre of Milton Keynes - at least in terms of its traditional atmosphere, its ethnic variety of restaurants and the Bohemian character of some inhabitants on this Left Bank of the Ouse, with its artists, musicians, writers and such.

   
Alternate evening activity could be mingling with the natives in a real ale bar, and then selecting a late night takeaway from one of the exotic establishments where academic-haunted Wolverton Road meets the southern end of the High Street.
