There are plenty of stunning walking and cycling trails, including the tow path along the Kennet & Avon Canal which passes directly through the town centre. Newbury is the headquarters of Vodafone UK and offers a railway station on the direct line to London Paddington (fast train to Paddington has an approx. travel time of 41 minutes). There are also excellent road links via the A34 and M4 motorway, a convenient commute for those working in Reading, Oxford and Southampton.
