Ramsdean, Stroud and Langrish are a close active community and there is a local shop in East Meon and a Primary School nearby in Langrish.

Although Ramsdean seems rural with its numerous walks and the infamous Butser Hill, part of the South Downs Way, you are quickly at Petersfield Station taking you to Waterloo Station in just over an hour. Parking is easy in Petersfield, where there are extensive shopping facilities, independent boutiques, coffee shops and restaurants. There is a big choice of supermarkets including Waitrose, Tesco, Aldi, Lidl, an M & S Food Hall and twice weekly market held in Petersfield Square.

There are schooling options both in the state and private sector locally with TPS at Petersfield (secondary), or Churcher's College, Bedales and Dunhurst/Dunannie. The A272 passes a few minutes' drive to the north of the village connecting Petersfield with access to Guildford, London and the South Coast.
