The AreaDorchester-on-Thames

Situated on the banks of the River Thame, Dorchester – with its desirable setting, attractive architecture and fascinating history – offers village living at its finest. The beautiful Abbey, originally an Augustine monastery and dating from the 1100’s sits prominently within the village. The village of Long Wittenham, is also close by. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, with stunning river side walks and the iconic Wittenham Clumps. Wallingford is the closest town. With its large open market square and famous castle ruins, this bustling market town is suffused in history. Wallingford is home to a sparkling array of dining options and a thriving café culture. If that wasn’t enough, Wallingford’s outstanding schools, great leisure facilities and abundant footpaths, mean the town is fast becoming South Oxfordshire’s most sought after small town. With both Oxford and Reading within striking distance, Dorchester-on-Thames is well-connected to some of London’s fastest rail-links and is well positioned for both the M4 and M40.
