Virginia Water
The Borough is fortunate in containing a portion of Windsor Great Park.
The Virginia Water Lake, complete with Canadian Totem Pole, is a popular
area for relaxing walks, as is the nearby Savill Garden.
The tourist or local resident with time on his hands will find himself drawn
into the Great Park and will be able to walk right up to the hill,
overlooking the Royal Palace of Windsor.
The residential part of Virginia Water extends from the Park to the railway
station, which is also the location of a well-appointed shopping parade. The
highly exclusive Wentworth Estate, home of media and sports stars, is in
Virginia Water as is the world famous Wentworth Golf Course.
Virginia Water is a varied, fascinating place that is well worth taking the
time to explore.
