Maidenhead is a large town in the county of Berkshire, England. It is just southwest of the Thames River and it is claimed that the area around Maidenhead’s present town center was once a small Roman settlement called Alaunodunum. The name Maidenhead comes from the riverside area where the first new wharf or “maiden Hyth” was built by the Saxons.
From medieval times, Maidenhead grew as a market town where people traveling to and from London, Gloucester and Bath could stop for a night and resupply. King Charles I met his children for the last time at the Greyhound Inn here, just before his execution in 1649 and a plaque commemorates the spot. Since medieval Maidenhead has a famous history with this inn, why not book a stay in one of the more modern forms of accommodation. Here are the top Airbnb rentals in Maidenhead, UK!
