About the Accommodation

Enjoy a relaxing break in a modern, stylish apartment that offers a central location with parking for 1 car. The comfy sitting room, with its huge windows, features a large U shape sofa bed perfectly positioned in front of the smart TV for movie nights. The kitchen/dining area is equally stylish with a well equipped kitchen so you will have everything you need to whip up delicious feasts, including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, hob, microwave, oven and a coffee machine. When bedtime beckons, bedroom 1 features a double bed with a wardrobe and large windows, bedroom 2 has twin beds which is accessed by a ladder, great fun for children but not suitable for anyone with mobility issues.

When it comes to things to do, you’re nicely placed to explore all that this famous town has to offer. You are in the heart of the town centre with all the shops and restaurants at your doorstep. You are also just a few minutes walk from the river Thames, Henley train station and the River & Rowing Museum as well as the cinema and Kenton theatre.

Amenities

Notes

There are several flights of stairs to climb so not ideal for anyone with mobility issues.

The apartment overlooks the Market Place which can be busy and also a bit noisy during the summer months (if you are keeping your windows open for fresh air) - particularly during Regatta.

Neighbourhood

If you're looking to stay in Henley, you probably already know why you're coming, as Henley is famous for its annual Royal Regatta and Festival, which attracts visitors from around the world.

Parking

Swan's Nest has its own parking space, which is big enough for a single small or medium sized car, within a private, gated car park just off Greys Road Car Park. Full details of how to access the parking will be sent to you prior to your arrival.  If you have a large car or van, then please do not use the private car park, and please do not block the spaces reserved for other properties or businesses. 

Other options for parking are as follows: Greys Road car park is just the other side of the private car park, but you are limited to 3 hours during the day (which currently costs £2.40). There is a long stay car park at Henley train station (£6 per day) or Southfields long stay car park off Goodall Close (£4.40 per day) - both are about 10 mins walk away. You will need to pay for this parking onsite. If you would like free road parking, there is some at the end of Greys Road up the hill and on St Marks Road and St Andrews Road.
