Denchworth is an attractive traditional small village about 4 miles north of Wantage, surrounded by open countryside. It retains a pub, often used as a base for local walks. In Wantage is a good range of shops, including Sainsburys and Waitrose, health and sports facilities. Grove, only about 2 miles away, has a parade of local shops for everyday needs. While in a quiet rural setting, Denchworth is a good location for those needing access to Oxford (by the A338), Faringdon (A417) or Didcot (13 miles) where there is a main line station with fast service to Paddington.
