Well if you're buying your own accomodation expect to pay +£1 mm - it's one of the most desireable areas in the UK and the district (Hart I think) is regularly voted the best place to live in the UK. Nearby train into London , just off the M3, rolling countryside, twee pubs, no industry - short run into Basingstoke for chain shopping or Farnham /Guildford for the expensive stuff................ Locals are bit Radio4 and the village has a Co-Op, a few restaurants, a couple of pubs and a BMW dealer, fairly large doctors surgery, olde worlde church
?Tesco next to the railway station at Hook 3 miles away.................. natives fairly friendly ('cept in one pub in the village)
