LOCATION
Ash Hurst is a new development of four 2-bedroom country cottages within the idyllic village of Goring-on-Thames. It is located in a quiet, tree-lined setting, adjacent to the open countryside, yet is within walking distance from the school, station and village shops.
Goring-on-Thames is nestled alongside the River Thames, in a location where the river cuts through the Chiltern Hills and the North Wessex Downs Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). This is known as the Goring Gap, which provides spectacular scenery and formed the inspiration for Kenneth Grahame’s Wind in the Willows. It was also the much-loved country home of the late George Michael.
Country living at Ash Hurst also has the benefits of being located within walking distance of a mainline station. The village has regular trains to Reading (15 minutes), London (49 minutes via Reading) and Oxford (28 minutes), with increased connectivity once Crossrail is completed.
Goring-on-Thames is also known to have a very strong community with clubs, societies and a bustling village centre. The village has its own doctors and dentists, as well as convenience food shops, including the locally acclaimed ‘Goring Grocer’ deli. It even has a hardware store, open 7 days a week, where you can buy four candles!
Streatley on Thames, on the Berkshire side of the river, is another picturesque village surrounded by hills and woodlands now mainly owned by the National Trust.? Fronting onto the river by the bridge crossing over to Goring is the luxury 4-star riverside hotel the Swan renowned for its fine cuisine and leisure and fitness facilities.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
