It’s a pleasant, five-minute stroll along the riverside to the heart of Reading from this cosy little apartment. You’ll find a town centre packed with big-name shops, buzzing bars and cafés. If you fancy your centres bigger and glitzier, it’s a twenty-five-minute train to London from Reading Station. Whatever you choose, this modern apartment is the perfect Reading bolthole. A big, arched window looks out over the leafy forecourt, offering a bit of peace and quiet to the living room. At the end of the day, a plush L-shaped sofa awaits and the kitchen has everything you need to whip up a meal for an evening in. Dotted with botanica and a curated collection of trinkets, there’s something chic yet homely about this apartment, making it a fab choice for a stay in Reading.
