LOOKING DOWN TO THE VALE AND UP TO THE DOWNS

PICTURESQUE A RD IN GTO N sits in beautiful rolling

countryside between the North Wessex Downs and the Vale of White Horse. The distinctive appearance of many of Ardington’s buildings is because they are part of the Lockinge Estate, now a philanthropic trust which exists with the interests of the local community, businesses and its tenants at its heart. OLD WORKS YARD sits right at the heart of the

village, and rejuvenates this collection of craftsmen’s workshops which served the Lockinge Estate. These three new cottages echo the feel of the old workshops, but are constructed to the highest contemporary standards and specified to a high level.

The ancient market town of Wantage is only 2 miles away, where the twice-weekly markets and farmers’ market bring life and colour to the Market Square. The town has many traditional independent shops and eating places, as well as some national brands, including Waitrose. Ardington School of Crafts offers creative courses in areas such as glasswork, calligraphy and fine art, and the village has other amenities including the locallyrun shop, cafe and post office and The Boar’s Head, a cosy dining pub. The nearby Ridgeway offers great scope for walkers, cyclists and riders to get out onto the beautiful surrounding Downs.

EXCEPTIONAL AND TRANQUIL, BUT NOT REMOTE

PARKI N G 5 –7

7 6 5 ARDINGTON is in a beautiful and peaceful location;

its history and community add a special character. While the village is off the beaten track, it is close to the market towns of Wantage, Wallingford and Abingdon on Thames, all of which provide a good range of everyday services. Oxford, Swindon, Reading and Newbury are reached in around half an hour. Travel connections from the village are very easy, with the A34 and Didcot Parkway station just a few minutes’ drive.
