Newbury, Sydmonton Flat with Countryside Views

Fabulous views of the countryside known as Watership Down, But great position for lots of interest (see below). 10 minutes down the back doubles to Newbury. Also easy to access A34 for Oxford and Winchester. We are also 15 minutes from M3 and M4. Tranquility and stunning views. We moved here for just that and have been here for 25 years. If you want more action, driving 10 minutes round the back doubles you can be in central Newbury with its bustling restaurants and bars. Kingsclere 5 minutes away is a great village with a lovely gastro pub, cafe, and if you’re staying longer and want to cook a great butcher and general store. People come from Basingstoke to go to the hairdresser in the village! The Keepers Flat Book in the apartment will give you all kinds of information you may need during your stay from restaurants to walking cycling in the vicinity. Our local pub is a short walk away through our grounds or a couple of minutes by car. We do not Host infants/children as the apartment is not suitable for them. Self contained flat within gated private property. Guest’s just have access to the flat. Definitely but we like our guests to have their own space as well! One of my guests said he had never walked into a pub where he’s never been before and had the locals say hi! A ten minute walk away through our grounds - on a fine day or a five minute car journey. Large garden or eat in the restaurant. This area is biking heaven. You can go up to Watership Down from our house and experience the stunning views.
