Binfield Heath is a small, elevated village in the district of South Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, lying a short distance south‑west of Henley-on-Thames. Perched above the Thames Valley, it enjoys fine views towards the Chiltern Hills and is set among mixed farmland and pockets of ancient woodland and country lanes that make it popular for walking and riding.
Originally a scattering of hamlets and estate cottages, the village is now largely residential and attracts commuters heading to Reading or London, while retaining a strong local community with a village hall, a pub and grassroots clubs and events. There are several attractive period houses and traditional cottages, so the area combines a quiet rural character with an affluent local economy and an active village social life.
