Hatch Place is situated close to the heart of the picturesque and highly regarded village of Cookham, which has a thriving community and is set within glorious rolling countryside in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is on the banks of the river Thames and the Thames Path follows the river through the village, providing a scenic walk from Cookham to Marlow. Outdoor pursuits are numerous in and around the village, as are golf, football, cricket and rugby clubs.

There are three primary schools and three nursery schools situated in Cookham, with a comprehensive range of private and state schooling options in the area include Sir William Borlase's Grammar School, Beaconsfield High School, Eton, Harrow, Wycombe Abbey, Caldicot Preparatory School and some excellent schools in the Maidenhead, Marlow and Henley area.
