About

Bentley and Holybourne sit just north of Alton in East Hampshire, linked by country lanes and public footpaths to the surrounding fields. Bentley has a small station on the Alton Line, which terminates at Alton and provides a direct rail link toward London; the station remains a local access point rather than a transport hub. Holybourne lies close to Alton’s eastern edge and has grown along the valley slopes, with lanes running down to the village centre and a parish church that marks the historic core.

The landscape around both villages is a patchwork of arable fields, pasture and pockets of mixed woodland, with larger blocks of forest a short drive away. Farming and small-scale forestry shape the pattern of hedgerows and lanes, and rights of way cross former commons and field systems used for generations. Local amenities include village shops, a pub and community halls that host markets and events; walkers use the rail link and the network of paths to reach neighbouring woods and the open countryside.
