The village of Grateley (one mile distant) has a Post Office and store, primary school (which we understand has a first class reputation), a public house, church and the mainline railway station (a five minute walk away) provides fast services to Waterloo (one hour 15 minutes). Andover, approximately four miles away, offers a comprehensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities, and also has a mainline station. The towns of Winchester, Salisbury and Basingstoke are all within 30 minutes’ drive and the A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London and the West Country.
