Situated on the west bank of the River, along what many regard as the most beautiful stretch of the Thames and acknowledged to be one of the longest runs between locks, the village has many interesting half-timbered cottages and larger houses, including a 17th century manor house, reflecting a rich architectural heritage.  The surrounding scenic countryside comprising the Chilterns on one side of the River and Berkshire Downs on the other, is designated an “Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty”.

The village has two highly regarded private schools, Cranford House and Moulsford Prep, and the local area generally has an excellent range of state and private schools within easy reach. Additionally, the area is served by further private schooling, of particular note; The Oratory Preparatory School, St Andrews Preparatory School, The Oratory School, Pangbourne College, Brockhurst & Marlston House, Downe House, Rupert House School, Shiplake College, The Abbey School, Bradfield College, The Manor Preparatory School, Abingdon School, Abingdon Preparatory School, Radley College, and St Helen & St Katharine.

On one edge of the village there is a petrol garage with a convenience store, whilst to the other, the “Beetle & Wedge” riverside Inn. For walking enthusiasts there are numerous footpaths and bridleways which have access onto the Berkshire Downlands linking to the ancient Ridgeway path and also onto the Thames towpath which extends along the River from Wallingford to Streatley-on-Thames.

For rail commuters the both nearby villages of Cholsey and Goring-on-Thames have mainline railway stations providing fast services to Oxford, Reading and up to London (Paddington) in under the hour.
