Hiking
Elsfield is one of England's many tiny villages that time seems to have passed by. Here, you'll find a church with 12th century sections and a beautiful stone manor house which was once home to John Buchan, Governor General of Canada and author of Thirty-Nine Steps. Wander around the village to see its thatched cottages and enjoy its general air of peace.
