Just a few minutes from delightful Henley-on-Thames, this country cottage has beautiful views across farmland to the rear. Whether you're here to get away from it all and just enjoy some quiet walks, or if you're planning to stay near Henley for a while, it's a comfortable place that feels like home from the moment you open the door. The cosy living room has a charming fireplace and loads of character, while the kitchen is modern and packed with everything you'll need for cooking at home. Sit at the kitchen table or head outside on warm days to eat in the terraced garden. A private spot with distractingly lovely views, we think you're likely to spend a lot of your time out here on the sofa. Perfect for a family, one of the two bedrooms is up on the second floor and has beds cleverly tucked under the eaves – we think the kids will love it.
