Itchen Stoke and Ovington sits in the Winchester district of Hampshire, England, straddling the chalk‑stream River Itchen and lying on the edge of the South Downs. The two small villages and surrounding countryside offer riverside meadows, traditional hedgerows and attractive walking routes that link to nearby New Alresford and Winchester.

The area has a small, close‑knit rural community with village amenities and a number of historic buildings - including a notable parish church and traces of former mill activity beside the river - reflecting a long agricultural past. Today the local economy remains largely rural with some small businesses and commuters to nearby towns, while anglers, walkers and conservationists prize the parish for its peaceful character and high‑quality chalk‑stream ecology.
