The Community Bus Service from Stanford in the Vale provides regular transport to the nearby market towns of Faringdon and Wantage and beautiful countryside walks are literally on the doorstep of this historic village, with the Downs and famous White Horse of Uffington, the River Thames and the Cotswolds all within easy reach.

Village primary schools can be found in neighbouring Stanford in the Vale and Shellingford, the Faringdon Community College was rated ‘outstanding’ by ofsted in 2008 and there are several independent preparatory and secondary schools within easy access.
