The top 9 places to stay if you’re thinking of visiting Slough
London – a proper city- Windsor – has a castle
- Reading – pretty gruesome but it’s not Slough or Swindon
- Newbury – got a racecourse
- Maidenhead – at least it’s on the Thames
- Henley-on-Thames – you can go rowing
- Farnborough – they have an air show
- Wokingham – not all that but it’s better than Slough
- …just about anywhere else!

Never been – no desire to. The name itself is enough for anyone who’s read Pilgrim’s Progress.
