New Homes in Berkshire

The Royal County of Berkshire is one of the Home Counties in the south east of England, situated just to the west of London over the other side of the River Thames and has fantastic routes into the capital by both train, underground and road. Berkshire is famous for being home to Windsor Castle - Queen Elizabeth II former royal residence at the heart of Windsor and is the reason behind why Berkshire is known as the Royal County.

Berkshire contains some great British institutions which have shaped the country's landscape over the years. One such institution is Eton College, the most well-known boys' boarding school in England, based in Eton parish near Windsor, which was founded in 1440 by King Henry VI.
Eton is one of the last remaining schools of its kind - a male same sex boarding-only independent school - and has produced 20 prime ministers over its time as an institution of education.

Heston Blumenthal has established his three-Michelin-star restaurant, The Fat Duck, just south of Maidenhead and serves a number of delicious experimental dishes which draw diners from across the world.
