LOCATION
The much prized village of Goring on Thames occupies a stunning
location in the Thames Valley set between the Chiltern Hills and
Berkshire Downlands as the River flows from Oxford down to Reading,
in an area of scenic landscape known geographically as the Goring
Gap and designated an A.O.N.B. In 2009 Goring was awarded the
prestigious Oxfordshire Village of the Year and also won the
coveted best in South of England title.
This stretch of the River, the longest between locks, is
regarded as one of the most beautiful and is forever associated
with Kenneth Grahames immortal book The Wind in the Willows as well
as Jerome K Jeromes book Three Men in a Boat which actually
mentions Streatley in its narrative.
The village boasts an excellent range of shops and facilities
together with Olde Worlde pubs, a highly regarded Bistro Caf©,
choice of restaurants, Boutique hotel, Doctors and Dental surgeries
and importantly a mainline station offering fast services up to
London Paddington . There is also easy access for the major local
towns, including Oxford, Reading and Newbury, the M4 and M40
motorways, and for Heathrow.
Crossrail services have commenced from Reading, which together
with the electrifying of the line significantly improves travelling
times to central London destinations.
Recognised as a thriving community, there are a wide range of
clubs, societies and special interest groups to suit most
people.
There is a highly rated Primary school and in the local area are
a first class choice of both state and private schools with bus
collections.
The central part of Goring is a Conservation Area and has a
wealth of interesting period properties many Listed being of
significant architectural and historical interest.
Streatley on Thames, situated on the opposite Berkshire side of
the river, is another pretty village surrounded by hills and
woodlands now mainly owned by the National Trust. Fronting onto the
river by the bridge crossing over to Goring is The Swan hotel,
renowned for its fine cuisine and leisure and fitness facilities
and the Coppa Club restaurant.
Belleme Mews is ideally located in the heart of the village and
comprises a superior Architect designed development of 9 only
Apartments of differing size and arrangement in a staggered terrace
with period style elevations reflective of the local vernacular

windows to first floor.
Across the frontage is a brick and flint boundary wall with a
central private driveway through an arched opening being another
