A ten-minute walk from the town centre and Henley-on-Thames’ railway station, this compact terraced home would suit a family or small group of friends. Riverside eateries and pubs with beer gardens are within strolling distance, and the bustle of London is an hour’s train ride away. The home itself is a cosy spot and while the galley-style kitchen is on the smaller side, the private outdoor space complete with a dining area makes up for it. Both bedrooms are comfortable and a couple of sofa beds provide additional sleeping space.

About Henley-on-Thames
Weeping willows cascade into the Thames and barges putter along the serene water – life in Henley-on-Thames is all about the river.
