Open Homes workspaceAbout Buckingham
Buckingham is a historic market town on the River Great Ouse and was once the county town of Buckinghamshire before Aylesbury took that role. Its medieval street pattern, market place and Old Gaol reflect a long civic history, while the University of Buckingham gives the town a student and academic presence. Surrounded by villages and close to Milton Keynes, Bicester and Oxfordshire, Buckingham offers a quieter rental market focused on families, professionals and university-related demand.
