Bishopstoke is a large village and civil parish in the Borough of Eastleigh, Hampshire, situated on the banks of the River Itchen. Located just 1 mile northeast of Eastleigh town centre and about 6 miles from the city of Southampton, Bishopstoke has grown from a small rural settlement into a popular residential area with a mix of older cottages, modern homes, and new developments. With a population of over 9,000, the village retains a community feel while benefiting from its proximity to major transport links and urban centres.
The River Itchen, a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), runs through the village and is central to Bishopstoke’s identity. The area is known for its riverside walks, fishing spots, and access to Itchen Valley Country Park, a large green space ideal for families and nature lovers. The village also borders Stoke Park Woods, a well-used woodland area offering walking and cycling trails. These natural amenities contribute to Bishopstoke’s appeal as a peaceful place to live with excellent outdoor recreational opportunities.

Eastleigh railway station is just minutes away and offers regular services to Southampton, London Waterloo, and Bournemouth. Southampton Airport is also close by, offering both domestic and European flights. Local bus services connect Bishopstoke to Eastleigh, Fair Oak, and surrounding villages.
Neighbouring areas include Eastleigh to the west, a busy town with extensive shopping, leisure, and transport facilities; Fair Oak to the east, another growing residential area; and Colden Common to the north, known for its semi-rural feel and links to the South Downs. To the south lies Horton Heath, a developing area with several new housing estates. Bishopstoke is served by local schools including Stoke Park Infant and Junior Schools, and Wyvern College in Fair Oak for secondary education.
