After recently doing a review at The Three Tuns in Henley, it wasn’t long before we got invited to head out that way again. It’s a good hour’s drive for us, but having had such a great experience before and with it being the perfect weather for an evening ride, we took the rather scenic country roads to Shiplake, just outside of Henley.
