Real dating around Newbury
Newbury has a lot to love, from the racecourse to the canal to the country lanes around it. What it doesn't hand you is an easy way to meet the right person. Embrace Dating does. It's for locals who want a relationship that means something.
From the town itself out to Thatcham, Hungerford and the villages of the Berkshire Downs, you'll find people close by who want the same thing. No pressure, no games, just genuine people ready to meet someone.
What the apps never gave you
Three reasons Newbury singles are swapping the swipe for something that works.
Matches close to home
Your matches are around Newbury and west Berkshire. A first date can be a towpath walk or a Sunday roast at a village pub, not a long drive across the county.
Grown-ups who mean it
The people here want a relationship, plain and simple. No hookups, no messing about, just adults who know what they're looking for and aren't shy about it.
Real people, checked and safe
We verify profiles and keep an eye on the community, so the person you're chatting to is exactly who they say they are. That's one less thing to worry about.
The kind of match that actually sticks
A good photo gets a first message. It doesn't build a relationship. Embrace Dating looks deeper, matching you on your values, your lifestyle and what you actually want out of life.
That's how you go from another polite first date to meeting someone you'd happily spend a muddy Sunday walk and a long pub lunch with.
