Built back in 1861, this home was originally a vicarage to an adjacent church, which was demolished in the 1960s — there's a still small cemetery at the front of the property. Things have certainly moved on since the middle of the nineteenth century and the interior is a triumph of modern design. The two living rooms mix period features, such as the Victorian fireplace and crystal chandeliers, with contemporary flourishes, like the tufted furnishings, bold print wallpaper and the shaggy rugs. The kitchen is both huge and super-slick, and leads through to the conservatory, which is now home to a gym. Upstairs, the bedrooms are equally large and are full of quirky additions, from a red ball gown to an electric guitar. Somehow, the home's outside space manages to compete with what lies behind the front door. The first thing guests will be greeted with is a pretty alfresco dining spot sat underneath a pergola, but there's also ten acres of private woodland that is home to a children's play area and a zip wire. As if that wasn't enough space, there's also access to Windsor Forest, part of the Crown Estate. The town of Windsor itself is only a quarter of an hour away in the car, while Ascot Racecourse only takes ten.

Part of the historic Estate of Dorney Court, this timber-framed house dates back to the sixteenth century and is a magical blend of heritage and modernity.

The former great hall is emblematic of this. The thirty-foot-high ceilings remain, as do the wooden beams in the vaults, but there have been a few recent additions, from the glitzy chandelier and bovine-themed artwork to the huge kitchen complete with a range cooker. Elsewhere, you'll find two wood burners and an open fire, so guests will never be anything other than toasty. Plus, there's a range of vintage beds in the sleeping quarters, which bring a dash of aristocratic glamour to your slumber.

Surrounding the property are some large grounds with stables and English village life awaits just beyond the boundaries, with Dorney Common and the home of the London 2012 Olympics rowing events, Dorney Lake, only eight minutes' walk away. If you want to work up a hunger beforehand, there are some pretty walking routes running alongside the River Thames, which can be reached in about twenty minutes from the home, plus a pub and bakery taking barely two minutes' walk.

One of the many barn conversions peppered across the British countryside, this home is a fine example of the great sense of space and light that's typical of the very best of these former agricultural buildings.

Behind the front door, you'll find no clue as to the property's prior life – only stark white walls, shiny wooden floors and a super-sleek kitchen complete with a huge island that would happily slot into the most contemporary of city apartments. 

When it comes to keeping guests entertained, the pool table will help rainy afternoons fly by, while the large patio with a barbecue and trampoline will come in handy when the sun makes an appearance.

If you're lucky with the forecast, there are plenty of riverside walking routes in the local area and the historic town of Windsor with its famous castle is only ten minutes away in the car, too.

Set within 40 acres of gardens, paddocks and woodland just west of Windsor, this home is a true escape from it all. Blending contemporary interiors into a traditional English setting, there’s so much to love here. As for location – you couldn’t want more. You’ll spy Windsor Castle on the horizon, and both Ascot and Windsor are fifteen minutes away. Central London? Reachable in just thirty minutes. With stables and an indoor arena on-site, it’s also handy to know that this is set within a prime polo location. And if you'd rather have a relaxing day at home, with a pool, tennis court, gym, library, home cinema, and country walks from the doorstep, there’s so much entertainment, you may never want to leave. 

The Great British Retreat

This home located just outside of Maidenhead is certainly one of the more pared-back properties in our collection, but it's so well-executed that we felt compelled to include it.

The ivory walls, shiny wooden floors and large windows combine together to make the interior feel bright and inviting. while there's plenty of sleek black surface space in the horseshoe-shaped kitchen to whip up family-sized feasts. Out through the French doors, there's a garden that runs around three sides of the house that could very easily be the site of summer lawn games.

The centre of Maidenhead sits about seven minutes' drive away when you fancy a meal out or a trip to the theatre. In the other direction, walking routes in the Chiltern Hills AONB can be reached in a similar amount of time.

Ebony & Ivory

Single-Level Home

If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to live next door to a member of the royal family, this place might have the answers. Situated just a few metres from iconic Windsor Castle, this simple but stylish apartment is a great base for those looking to get up close and personal with British royalty, tucked just round the corner from the late Queen’s historic weekend home. 

Wander down the cobbled street and find yourself face to face with the oldest occupied castle in the world, then set off for a relaxing stroll along the river followed by a spot of window shopping in Windsor’s boutique stores. Then, when you’ve had your fill of being out and about, come home to your gorgeous apartment, where panelled walls and soft, wooden tones will make you feel as though you’ve stepped into your very own royal residence. 

This place has everything you need for a relaxing evening in, so why not make the most of it? Run yourself a soothing bubble bath and unwind in the standalone tub or slip into your comfiest clothes and catch up on your favourite shows in the cosy living room. We don’t know about you, but we have a sneaking suspicion King Charles will be doing exactly the same thing next door. 

The Queen's Lodge

Bathed in natural light, decked out with comfortable furniture and blessed with a spacious open-plan layout, this flat in the centre of Maidenhead is perfect for anyone looking to explore the best of Berkshire.

A favourite among the Edwardian upper classes who didn't have the time or inclination to travel as far as Bath, Maidenhead is on the up and up. The soon-to-open Elizabeth line will also make getting into London a breeze, with a forty-minute train ride landing you at Tottenham Court Road.

Meanwhile, a visit to the nearby village of Bray is renowned for its Michelin-starred restaurants. In addition to Heston Blumenthal's Fat Duck and The Hind's Head, there's also Alain Roux's The Waterside Inn – you can't go wrong with any of them.

Right in the heart of Windsor, this central home puts you within minutes of the town's stylish boutiques, award-winning restaurants and traditional pubs. At the same time, the home is surrounded by parkland and greenspace, so it feels more rural than it actually is. The home itself has plenty of space, indoor and outdoor, with fabulous parquet flooring throughout the ground floor, while the soft furnishings add a nice cosiness to the communal areas. Add in a dedicated workspace, and you’ve got all bases covered during your stay.

Royal Next Door

Cloaked in soothing tones, this understated Eton home is the perfect setting for a relaxing staycation, situated within easy reach of Windsor’s most popular attractions. Whether you’re here for the town’s namesake castle or simply to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, you can’t do much better than this gorgeous, family abode which comes complete with its own private garden, perfect for letting little ones and furry friends roam free while you savour a well-deserved cuppa in the fresh air. 

Start your morning with a peaceful stroll along the river, then come home and refuel with a pastry or two at the stylish breakfast bar before setting off for a day of exploration with your fellow guests. With Legoland, Eton College, and Windsor’s famous Long Walk at your fingertips, there’s something for everyone here – though we wouldn’t blame you if all you wanted to do was find a nearby pub and unwind over a cold pint of your favourite beer. Either way, when it’s time to head back, you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable stay, so why not treat yourself to a cosy evening in? After all, that Netflix show isn't going to binge itself.

If Windsor Castle is on your sightseeing list, then you've come to the right place. You'll be staying less than a ten-minute walk away, and near to the train station that can take you up to London in forty minutes. But this home is much more than just your average sightseeing base — spread across four floors with two living rooms and an abundance of space (including parking for up to three cars), this British beauty has plenty to offer. There are lots of soft textures and wooden surfaces that add a homely touch to the bedrooms, making you feel right at home. We also loved the sliding doors that lead out to the outdoor space, where you can relax in the fresh air with a cool G&T as the sun goes down. And, as you'll be staying right on Eton High Street, you can always choose between getting creative in the well-equipped kitchen or stepping out to explore the local restaurants and pubs.

Escapade

Despite being tucked away on the outskirts of Burnham village, it’s worth noting that this historic home is situated by the side of an – albeit fairly quiet – road. Although both cosy and capacious – featuring five bedrooms as well as separate breakfast, dining and sitting rooms – we’ll bet it’s this home’s four-poster bedroom and en-suite marble bathroom you’ll be fighting over. Nevertheless, in our opinion, the walled garden is the real showstopper – perfect for watching the kids play while enjoying alfresco drinks in the sun. Under an hour from London, this home’s location makes it ideal for daytrips to Windsor, Legoland and the Thames Valley.

Secret Garden Games

This cosy home is the perfect rest point for a romantic getaway to the riverside town of Marlow. Snuggle up together on the sofa to watch a movie on the TV as the smell of a delicious homecooked meal wafts throughout the house. Enjoy your tasty plate of food at the dining table with a documentary on the screen as you socialise with your loved one, planning a fun itinerary of what you'll be up to in the town. If you're fancying a relaxing day in, get under the duvet to read a new book you picked up recently as you sip on a toasty cup of coffee. If weather permits, head out to the bench outdoors to dine alfresco with a hearty meal, washed down with a sumptuous glass of red – or sparkling bubbly.

Wander the streets of Marlow to see what you can find – there's a gorgeous Vietnamese restaurant nearby as well as a great selection of rustic pubs to unwind in as you enjoy a pint or two. A short drive takes you to the verdant Higginson Park where you get a fantastic view of the river and is a lovely spot for a picnic.

Nestled between two islands on the picturesque banks of the River Thames – this beautiful thatched Edwardian home built in 1903, under a fifteen-minute drive from Windsor, is the perfect riverside retreat. Watch the boats, ducks and swans on the river go by from your own private heated pool. Lawns stretch down to the water – perfect for a game of croquet or challenge someone to a game of table tennis. There’s also a multipurpose play area for any younger children.

Inside, you'll see more of those divine riverside vistas. There are two living rooms and plenty of space for entertaining your family or friends. We love the master bedroom’s balcony, but a real highlight of this home for us was the bedroom attached to the side of the house on stilts. It’s constructed out of 19th century beams from one of the last pioneering ships bound for Australia and contains beautiful carvings and unique features from this period.

When you want to explore, your hosts can help arrange River Thames boat trips to pick you and your guests up directly from the garden. There’s also a lovely pub in the nearby village of Wraysbury, a ten-minute walk away. As well as close proximity to Windsor and Eton, Ascot racecourse is just over twenty minutes in the car and Thorpe Park, a fifteen-minute ride, while Henley, which hosts the Royal Regatta is forty minutes. If you visit London, Slough train station (a fifteen-minute drive away) runs services to London Paddington, the fastest being fourteen minutes.



One of England's Watery Gems

Minutes away from central Windsor, this riverside apartment is in the perfect spot to discover the many shopping and restaurant areas on your doorstep. Although it isn’t the biggest apartment, and it being on the second floor may be difficult for those with limited mobility to access, multiple openings to the breezy balcony opens up the space when socialising with family or friends. Looking for a royally historic day out? This home is within a ten-minute walk to Windsor Castle and the Royal Borough Museum.

The Windsor Lookout

Children's Dinnerware

Sitting on a quiet residential street in central Windsor, this beautiful upper maisonette offers a warm and welcoming base for those looking to experience the town’s rich and royal history, as well as the delights of nearby Eton, Ascot and Legoland. 

Laid out over three floors, you’ll find plenty of space to socialise as well as opportunities to steal yourself await for some relaxing privacy. We love the woodland palette of the living area with its jewel-toned accents – the ideal spot to kick back, whether on the plump sofa with a glass of wine or around the farmhouse-style dining table for a celebratory home-cooked meal. Upstairs, the three bedrooms each boast their own singular decor, from the claret and blue Britannia-themed one to the nature-inspired single bedroom and the stunning main bedroom with its large slanted window. Factor in the bathroom’s luxurious rainfall shower and you’ve got everything you need for a perfectly blissful stay. 

Outside of your home, you’ll find a couple of cosy pubs at the end of your road, as well as a supermarket a two-minute walk away. When you’re ready to soak up some history and culture, Windsor Castle, Windsor’s High Street and Alexandra Park are a five-to-ten-minute walk away, and Eton is a mere fifteen minutes away on foot. Elsewhere, Legoland is a ten-minute drive and Ascot is twenty minutes away by car. 


Britannia Jewel

Playstation

This home is a great option for groups looking for a centrally-located stay in Windsor. By day, you can enjoy all that the city has to offer on foot – Windsor Castle is a short walk away and you’ll find the river is within easy reach. Guests looking to explore further afield will also appreciate the private parking on the drive. Inside, the rooms are unfussy, bright and spacious, and the garden is a welcome addition for warm-weather gatherings. 

Gather & See

A fifteen-minute stroll from the shop-lined High Street, you'll find Windsor Castle beyond – a must-see fortress for royal family fans. Fancy afternoon tea at a nearby racecourse? Or, how about exploring the Tudor grounds of Eton College? With free parking, this upstairs apartment promises easy access to all of that and more. Books and games are waiting in the colourful living room, and there's a handy workspace in the bedroom too. While six guests are welcome, you'll have to draw straws for seats at the dining table.

Pink Slice

Once owned by celebrities like Michael Caine and Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, this hidden gem is as enchanting as it is impressive. The garden room enjoys idyllic river views, while the library and dedicated office allow productivity and creativity to thrive. The secluded garden boasts room to enjoy afternoon tea under the sun, as well as entry to sprawling shared grounds along the waterfront of the iconic River Thames. Just a fifteen-minute stroll away you'll find Windsor Centre, along with Windsor Castle and The Long Walk. 

The Guildford Gully

Cosy and comfortable, this family home has everything you need for a stay in the Berkshire countryside. We love the character here, especially the kitchen's exposed beams and stone walls. There's a garden for summer afternoons, a separate study for remote workers, and two sofa beds for flexible sleeping arrangements. Location-wise, you're just a short drive from the shops, restaurants and famous castle in Windsor. Or, stay local and enjoy walks along the River Thames – the perfect excuse to crawl into one of the village pubs on your way home.

Wraysbury Dream

Trash Compactor

Pretty as a picture, this period townhouse in the heart of Henley is just the ticket if you're looking for a quintessential English home. Set over three storeys and packed with character, it's a charming address that's rustic on the ground floor and more elegant on the upper levels.

Downstairs, the bare floorboards, botanical artwork and artfully weathered wood furnishings lend the feel of a country pile, and there's no shortage of natural light thanks to the huge skylights that line the ceiling at the far end of the space. The glass doors that sit underneath lead out to a green courtyard complete with seating and a barbecue — talk about being ready for summer.

Back inside, the boot room with a shower is perfect if you're thinking of heading into the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at any point — less than five minutes' drive away, by the way — while the snug at the front of the house and the tub in the master bedroom are lovely places to rest sore limbs.

It's fair to say that you'll have everything on your doorstep here. Just three minutes' walk to the banks of the River Thames, there are also shops, restaurants and cafes aplenty, but — best of all — the host has an agreement with the pub next door which can provide room-service food and drink during your stay. Why not take the night off washing up?

Babes In Toyland

Garden / Courtyard

Sitting slap bang in the middle of Henley-on-Thames, this four-person mews home is brimming with charm. Complete with a sunny patio, the modern pad has everything you need for a memorable stay in this pretty riverside town.

Enjoy continental breakfast alfresco using ingredients provided by your hosts – they can also arrange fridge fills and food delivery so you can settle in from the moment you arrive. Sink into the deep and inviting sofa, the French doors thrown open so you can feel the summertime breeze drifting in. Staying during the cooler months? It doesn't get cosier than this abode, where you can spend snug evenings in front of the flat-screen TV.

You're just three minutes from the waterfront here – enjoy leisurely strolls along the river before followed by a trip to one of the many traditional pubs nearby. When it comes time to return home, you won't have far to go before you can crawl into one of the comfy double beds and enjoy a peaceful night's sleep.

Good Mews

A five-minute walk from the heart of Henley-on-Thames, where you’ll find independent shops and eateries, this home couldn’t be more ideally located. If you fancy stretching your legs, the Chiltern Hills are a short drive away. Back at the pad, there’s a well-equipped kitchen for dining in and comfortable bedrooms for a good night's sleep. Outside is a courtyard with a snug – your host provides blankets, making it a lovely spot to enjoy an alfresco cup of tea or a glass of something bubbly all year round.
