The village and civil parish of Hursley sits a few miles southwest of Winchester in rural Hampshire, England, set among gently rolling chalk downland and mixed woodland. The settlement is centred on an attractive cluster of historic houses and lanes and is dominated by the early 18th-century country mansion Hursley House with its surrounding parkland, which gives the area much of its character and draws walkers and garden visitors.
Hursley blends a quiet village feel - complete with a school, church and regular community events - with an unusual modern presence: the estate and house are home to IBM Hursley laboratories, a globally significant software development site and local employer. The parish remains conservation-minded, with thatched cottages, rural footpaths and a strong sense of local history alongside the economic boost provided by the tech campus.
