Newton Tony

Newton Tony, formerly known as Newton Toney, is a small, traditional village set in the beautiful Bourne Valley on the edge of Salisbury Plain and close to the Hampshire border.

The A303 is four miles away and it’s around nine miles, a 20-minute drive, to the cathedral city of Salisbury with its shops, restaurants, culture, heritage, facilities, amenities and travel links. Salisbury Reds operates a bus service through the village.

The River Bourne meanders through the village with its thatched cottages, modern family homes, and period properties, all set against the backdrop of rolling hills and rich farmland.

Newton Tony has a lovely local pub The Malet Arms, which sits right on the riverbank with a history dating back 350 years. It serves traditional pub fare with a chalkboard of seasonal, locally-sourced specials.

As well as the pub, the village memorial hall acts as a hub for activities and events and there’s a thriving local community with a parish website to keep locals up to date with what’s happening.

The village has a pre-school nursery and a CE VC primary school.

Newton Tony is home to RSPB Winterbourne Downs, a nature reserve providing safe haven for Stone-curlews and Lapwings and a variety of chalk-loving plants and insects.

Grately train station is just an 11-minute drive, with routes to London Waterloo in 80 minutes.
