Odiham is a picturesque village in the district of Hart, Hampshire, England, set along the valley of the River Whitewater and close to the restored Basingstoke Canal. Its most visible historic feature is the early 13th-century ruin of Odiham Castle, built by King John, and the surrounding countryside is popular for walking, boating and equestrian pursuits.
The village retains a lively high street of independent shops and pubs and an active community calendar, while economically it functions largely as an affluent commuter village with easy road and rail links to Basingstoke, Farnham and London; nearby RAF Odiham also provides a local military presence. Together these elements give Odiham a pleasing mix of historic charm and contemporary village life.
