SITUATION
Crays Pond is a small rural hamlet community situated on high ground on the southern edge of the Chilterns in an area of ‘Outstanding Natural Beauty’ to the north of Reading just above the scenic Thames Valley. Centred around an historic Pond, the village is ideally placed with excellent road communications for Reading, Wallingford, Henley and the M4 and M40 motorway networks.
The riverside villages of Pangbourne and Goring are both easily accessible, each offering established shopping centres and a range of facilities, including modern health centres, and,  importantly, mainline commuter stations with regular fast services up to London (Paddington) in well under the hour. There are also a number of restaurants, hotels and olde worlde inns in the immediate local area.

The nearby village of Woodcote offers everyday shopping facilities including a Co-Op supermarket open seven days a week, convenience stores, modern health centre and, and highly rated  primary and secondary schools.

In addition to having well revered and outstanding local state primary and secondary schooling, the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of private schooling, of particular note; Cranford House School, The Oratory Preparatory School, Moulsford Preparatory School, St Andrews Preparatory School, The Oratory School, Pangbourne College, Brockhurst & Marlston House, Downe House, Rupert House School, Shiplake College, The Abbey School, Bradfield College, The Manor Preparatory School, Abingdon School, Abingdon Preparatory School, Radley College, and St Helen & St Katharine.

The major centres of Reading, Oxford, Newbury and Henley on Thames are all within easy driving distance as are the M4 and M40 Motorways.

Crossrail (Elizabeth Line) services have commenced from Reading, which together with the completed electrification of the line has significantly improved travelling times to East and West destinations.
