Streatley sits on the north bank of the River Thames in West Berkshire, directly opposite Goring-on-Thames, occupying the edge of the Chiltern Hills where the river cuts the chalk escarpment at the Goring Gap. The surrounding countryside, including National Trust land at Lardon Chase and the long-distance footpath The Ridgeway, gives the village dramatic riverside and hilltop walking country that attracts day visitors and outdoor enthusiasts.
The village combines a handful of pubs, shops and a historic parish church with a community feel, while the nearby Goring and Streatley station provides easy commuting to Reading and London. Tourism, small-scale local services and riverside leisure - boating, cafés and walking - play a significant role alongside its role as a residential community.
