Location

Your quintessential rural location
Nestled on the northern edge of the Hampshire Downs, Bowbrook Copse is a collection of two, three- and four-bedroom homes set in the picturesque hamlet of Charter Alley.

Located five miles northwest of Basingstoke, between the villages of Ramsdell and Pamber End, Charter Alley’s idyllic setting offers far-reaching views over, and access to, unspoiled countryside. This small rural community combines the charm of country living with exceptional convenience, thanks to its proximity to the towns of Basingstoke, Reading, and Newbury.

The Hamlet of Charter Alley
Formerly known as West Sherbourne, Charter Alley lies within the parish of Monk Sherbourne. The parish can trace its roots back to the 11th Century and is home to several historic buildings. Charter Alley’s designation as a hamlet is due to its small size and the absence of a church. Some of its oldest buildings date back to the 17th Century and represent its past as a self-contained agricultural community. Today, Charter Alley’s architecture is mainly a mix of late 18th and 19th Century houses and cottages, complemented by the addition of more contemporary dwellings.

The village boasts a popular shop and café, as well as the White Hart public house, both of which are at the centre of Charter Alley’s vibrant community. Other small businesses in the village include a beauty salon, a vehicle repair workshop, a chiropractor, and a flooring business.

For lovers of rural life, walking, and the great outdoors, Charter Alley is surrounded by a network of public footpaths that allow access to local farmland dotted with mature deciduous woodland. Slightly further afield, walkers and cyclists can enjoy the paths and trails of Monk Sherbourne Woods, Pamber Forest, and Silchester Common.

Nearby Villages And Amenities
While Charter Alley and its surroundings epitomise tranquil rural living, the location offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy the country lifestyle, with all the essentials of modern living close at hand. Half a mile to the west, in Ramsdell, you will find a church, village hall, and cricket club. Lovers of golf will find courses a short drive away in Tadley, Kingsclere and Basingstoke. A mile to the east is Pamber End, home to the Priory Primary School and a garden centre.

Local pubs of note include the Wellington Arms in Baughurst, renowned for its food, and the 16th Century Queen College Arms in Pamber End. In Bramley, a mile to the east of Pamber End, is the Barn Farm Shop and Bistro, which sells meat and a range of local produce.

A great day out and superb venue for a picnic is The Vyne, a former Tudor palace and 17th Century family home. A short drive from Charter Alley, it features a tearoom, ornamental gardens and a shop selling products from National Trust ranges alongside locally sourced goods. The beautiful 925-acre Ewhurst Park country estate, just outside Ramsdell, has established itself as a centre for biodiversity. It hosts culinary and a variety of other public events throughout the year.

Three miles away, in the large village of Tadley, you will find two GP and two dental practices, a library, a fitness centre, a veterinary surgery, and two supermarkets, as well as Chinese and Indian restaurants.

For more extensive shopping and amenities, Basingstoke can be reached by car in 15 minutes. The town has branches of all the major supermarkets, the North Hampshire Hospital, retail parks, a cinema complex, and other destinations such as the Festival Place shopping centre and The Anvil Performing Arts Theatre.

Education Options
Families in the local area benefit from a mix of state and private schools. A factor that makes Charter Alley such a desirable place to live, is it is within the catchment area for the highly regarded Priory Primary School in Pamber End. Rated as ‘Good’ by OFSTED, the school has average class sizes of 27 and ranks in the top 21% of primary schools in the country for attainment. Charter Alley also falls within the secondary school catchment area for the Hurst School in Tadley. Local independent schools include Sherfield, Padworth College, Cheam, and Elstree. These schools cater to a range of educational needs, ensuring that families have access to quality education for children of all ages.

Transport and Connectivity
For commuters, the transport links are excellent. Central London is accessible in under 50 minutes via regular mainline train services from Basingstoke. The nearby M3 motorway provides quick connections to Heathrow Airport and the South Coast, ensuring convenience for both work and leisure travel. Alternatively, Bramley Station provides access to Reading in just 19 minutes, with connections to the Elizabeth Line for seamless travel into London. From Reading, the M4 motorway enables easy access to Wales and the West Country.

Lifestyle and convenience
Charter Alley embodies the ideal blend of rural tranquillity and practical convenience. Its excellent schools, strong community spirit, and proximity to major urban centres make it a quintessential Hampshire gem. Whether seeking a peaceful lifestyle or convenient commuting options, Charter Alley offers a harmonious balance of both.
