Tockington is a small rural village in South Gloucestershire, England, lying a short drive north of Bristol. It’s chiefly residential with a scattering of traditional stone and brick houses and is best known locally for Tockington Manor, a former country house now operating as a preparatory school.
Historically an agricultural settlement, the village retains a strong community feel with footpaths into surrounding farmland and a mix of farming and commuter households; many residents enjoy easy access to the city while living in a quieter countryside setting. Local life is centred on small-scale enterprises and outdoor pursuits rather than industry, giving Tockington a low‑key, village atmosphere appreciated by families and rural dwellers alike.
