Woolstone is a small village lying to the south of the White Horse. The White Horse of Uffington is one of the most impressive sites close to the ancient Ridgeway path, which traverses the steep chalk downs brooding over the Vale of the White Horse. Other sites include Dragon Hill, The Manger and Uffington Castle, which have been the subject of legend and folklore for over a thousand years. The village has a public house, “The White Horse”, and a parish church.

Just two miles from Woolstone is the historic village of Uffington which has a very successful Church of England primary school, a shop/Post Office, village hall and a parish church known as “The Cathedral of the Vale”, with an unusual octagonal tower.

Faringdon (c. 6 miles) is an historic market town offering a variety of shops including three supermarkets, a weekly market and a monthly farmers’ market.

Faringdon also has two primary schools, a Community College (secondary school), a leisure centre with indoor swimming pool, a health centre and dental practice.

This is an ideal location for commuting, with superb access offered via the A420 and A34 to the M4 and M40 motorways which in turn connect to other routes north and south, and mainline train services from Oxford, Didcot Parkway and Swindon. It is between one and two hours’ drive to five international airports (Heathrow, Birmingham, Bristol, Luton and Southampton).
