Island View is situated off Shortwood Copse Lane just to the east of the Winchester Road in Kempshott to the southwest of Basingstoke.

The old town has some ancient buildings and Deane's almshouses in London Street are of 17th century origin and the ruined chapel of the Holy Ghost was built in the 13th century. Basing nearby retains its village character and passed into the hands of the Paulet family who demolished the old motte and bailey castle and built Basing House. This was later destroyed by Cromwell in a famous seige.

Winchester is 20 miles to the southwest and Newbury about 19 miles to the northwest. The M3 runs just to the south of the town.
