We love this home’s fantastic location in the heart of Reading. It’s just a five-minute wander to the Oracle Centre with its wide range of shops, as well as riverside bars and restaurants. Culture vultures can head to Reading Museum, a ten-minute stroll away, while the pretty lake at Whiteknights campus at the University of Reading is a twenty-minute saunter or a six-minute drive. If you fancy a day out in London – Reading Rail Station, with its frequent trains to London Paddington and Waterloo, is under a fifteen-minute walk, while London Heathrow Airport is a forty-five-minute drive away. Inside this home, warm wood floors, neutral hues and modern furnishings, such as the Eames style chairs, create a stylish place to relax. Open up the door to the patio and get some fresh air, enjoy a glass of wine on the comfy chaise sofa or play with the board games provided. Later rustle up some dinner in the modern kitchen and enjoy it at your dining table. This place is perfect for friends or a family looking for a central pad.

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. Cruises by steamer, or a day pottering about in a row or sail boat are the best ways to experience a slice of river life, and the Henley Royal Regatta takes over in August.
