Earley & WoodleyLoddon

Loddon

RG5 3 / RG5 4

Family-friendly

Named after the River Loddon, this covers part of Lower Earley towards Sindlesham. Mostly 1980s and 90s housing estates, the kind with cul-de-sacs and shared green spaces. Dinton Pastures country park is the standout feature, popular for walking, fishing and the cafe. The area feels very suburban and car-dependent but families like it for the schools, the park, and the relative quiet.
