The village is surrounded by open farmland within 100m of the house with connections onto an extensive footpath and bridleway network through magnificent countryside all set in the Chiltern Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The excellent village primary school, founded in 1437 and the oldest still in use in the country, is a short walk from the house. Other independent schools such as The Oratory, Cranford House, Rupert House, Chandlings Manor and Moulsford Prep are nearby, and senior schools such as Pangbourne College, Bradfield College, Radley, The Oratory and all the Oxford schools are within reach.

The M40 J6 is just 7 miles away with the Oxford Tube coach connection to Central London, and access to the M25, London Heathrow Airport 45 minutes.
