Location

The Thameside village of South Stoke is situated between Wallingford and Goring it is on the East bank of the river, set between the Berkshire Downlands and the Chilterns in Oxfordshire in the wide River valley, surrounded by scenic rural countryside designated as an `Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty`.Largely unspoilt 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. Historically the village retains a close connection with Christchurch College in Oxford who were given land and property by Henry VIII at the time of the Reformation in the Middle Ages and as a result of this the timeless country way of life survives even today. Local amenities include a highly regarded traditional Inn `The Perch & Pike`, a Church of England primary school, a village hall, shop and recreation ground, and regular bus services to Wallingford and Reading. The River Thames is within easy walking distance at each end of the village where you can walk down the Thames Path to nearby Goring and Wallingford. The historic Ridgeway Path also runs through the village, having crossed the river at Goring on Thames from Streatley.

There are excellent road communications with easy access to Henley, Wallingford, Reading and Oxford as well as the M4 and M40 Motorways. Ferry Lane is a quiet no through road eventually leading down to the River and historically links back to the era when a Ferry service operated across the River to Moulsford. The road has a mix of properties dating from the 16th Century and including the late Victorian and Edwardian eras with a number of listed properties.
