LOCATION
Goring on Thames lies serenely in the beautiful Thames Valley set
between the Chiltern Hills in Oxfordshire and the Berkshire
Downlands opposite above the village of Streatley, the area known
geographically as the Goring Gap and designated an Area of
Outstanding Natural Beauty .
In 2010 Goring was awarded the prestigious Oxfordshire Village of
the Year and also the coveted South of England title. Local
amenities include a super primary school, an excellent range of
interesting shops and restaurants, together with a riverside caf©,
boutique hotel, two olde worlde inns, health centre, veterinary
practice, dentist and library. Importantly, a mainline railway
station provides fast commuter services to London Paddington in
well under the hour. The area is also extremely well served by an
excellent range of state and private schooling.
The central village Conservation Area has a wealth of
architecturally interesting properties, many listed and dating from
around the 16th Century. Historically, Goring on Thames traces back
to Saxon times.
In addition to having well revered and outstanding local state
primary and secondary schooling, including a primary school within
Goring on Thames itself, the area is also extremely well served by
an excellent range of private schooling, of particular note;
Cranford House School, The Oratory Preparatory School, Moulsford
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.
Streatley on Thames, on the Berkshire side of the river, is
another picturesque 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 at Streatley, a luxury 4
star riverside hotel with adjoining Coppa Club and leisure and
fitness facilities.
Crossrail Elizabeth Line services have commenced from Reading,
which together with the completed electrification of the line has
significantly improved travelling times to East and West
destinations.
COURT GARDENS
Court Gardens is a prestigious development of 12 unique high

Homes in 1999, who sympathetically converted and refurbished an
imposing late Victorian village house of some significance with its
original fine architectural features carefully retained. To the
rear, they added a newly built 3 storey complex, successfully
matching the external period style and replicating the Victorian
theme with stone window sills, appealing red brickwork and clay
tile hanging to elevations with exposed timbering in the gable ends
all under an interesting clay tile roof featuring turreted bays and
decorative windows.
