Stewkley is a sizeable, historic village and civil parish in Buckinghamshire, set in the Vale of Aylesbury a few miles from Aylesbury and within easy commuting distance of Milton Keynes and Leighton Buzzard. It sits close to the lower slopes of the Chiltern Hills, giving a mix of open farmland, attractive walking country and a relatively peaceful village character despite decent transport links.
The village has a well preserved centre with traditional cottages and a medieval parish church, and it functions as a local hub for the surrounding agricultural area. Social life is typically village-focused with community groups, annual events and small businesses and pubs that cater to both residents and visitors, while many people live in Stewkley and commute to nearby towns for work.
