Welcoming and friendly reception with time given to explaining the guesthouse facilities etc. Spotlessly clean room and shower room. Spacious bedroom with walk-in wardrobe for storage. Warm and comfortable. Quality bedlinen. Tea making facilities in room as well as access to guest kitchen for preparing food if required. Delicious breakfast preordered beautifully presented. Good WiFi. Quite simply nothing was too much trouble for Natalie who demonstrates quite clearly that she loves her running her business! Free parking and charging point for electric car. Plenty of restaurants in this beautiful area just a short distance from Henley-on-Thames.

Very nice place with a lot of rules

This was a very nice bed and breakfast. The grounds were beautiful. The owners take great care of their place. The were just overwhelming, very specific on what you could do and not so. Many rules to follow. I would not stay there again.

Lovely B&B near Henley

Excellent stay in Handywater cottages in a cosy converted room with a view of a meadow. It was very well heated on a cold night and very comfortable. Lovely breakfast and warm hospitality from Natalie. Would love to come back in summer and stay a little longer!
