Lambourn Woodlands is a small rural village in West Berkshire, England, sitting on the edge of the chalk Berkshire Downs within the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It lies a short distance from the larger village of Lambourn and is characterised by rolling downland, hedgerows and quiet lanes popular with walkers and riders.
The locality has a distinctly equestrian feel - the Lambourn valley is one of Britain’s principal racehorse training areas - so stables, gallops and related businesses influence the local economy. Historic features on the surrounding downs, including ancient field systems and barrows, together with chalk streams such as the River Lambourn, underline a long rural heritage; social life tends to centre on community events and amenities in neighbouring villages rather than a large village centre.
