Binfield Heath is a village and civil parish in South Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, set on the rolling escarpments of the Chiltern Hills a short distance from Henley-on-Thames. It sits among farmland, ancient beechwoods and small pockets of common and heath, giving pleasant views over wooded valleys towards the River Thames and a distinctly semi‑rural character despite easy road links to larger towns.
Historically agricultural, the area is now largely residential with a mix of period cottages and larger houses and an active local community that supports village events and conservation initiatives. Its proximity to centres such as Reading, Oxford and London makes it popular with commuters and walkers alike, combining countryside amenities with convenient access to urban services.
