LOCATION
The Thameside village of South Stoke is situated between Reading and Oxford on the east bank of the river, set between the Berkshire Downlands and Chilterns in the wide valley lying opposite the village of Moulsford, in a rural area designated as of ‘Outstanding Natural Beauty’.

Largely unspoilt with a large part in a “conservation area” and having only a limited amount of modern development, the village has a fine main street with many interesting period properties, some dating from the 16th century. The village retains a close connection with Christchurch College in Oxford who have owned land and property in the area since the Middle Ages and as a result of this the timeless country way of life survives even today.  

Local amenities include a traditional Inn which has recently been refurbished to a beautiful standard, a village shop, a highly regarded primary school, a village hall and recreation ground and bus services to Wallingford and Reading. The River Thames is within easy walking distance at each end of the village and offers recreational facilities.

The historic Ridgeway Path runs through the village, having crossed the river at Goring on Thames from Streatley, continuing along the riverbank to North Stoke from where it leaves the Thames and continues up onto the Chilterns.

The nearby village of Goring on Thames offers more comprehensive shopping facilities, a modern health centre, a dentist, library, several “Olde Worlde” Inns and hotel, range of restaurants and a mainline railway station providing fast commuter services to Reading and London (Paddington) in well under an hour.  There are excellent road communications with easy access to Henley, Wallingford, Reading and Oxford as well as the M4 and M40 Motorways.
