Preston Candover is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Basingstoke and Deane, Hampshire, England, nestling in the rural Candover Valley. The setting is typical Hampshire chalk downland and farmland, with narrow lanes, hedgerows and a cluster of flint and brick cottages that give the place a traditional village feel.

Historically rooted in agriculture, the community still revolves around a parish church, village hall and local pub, with a number of listed buildings and active conservation efforts preserving its character. It’s popular with walkers and countryside lovers for quiet footpaths and scenery, while remaining within easy reach of the larger town of Basingstoke for services and commuting.
