  • Luxury B&B
    Cannot speak highly enough of our stay at Handywater Cottages and the welcome and service Natalie and Ray provide. The venue and buildings are A1, rooms are well-appointed and spotless, breakfast is amazing and the location is brilliant and easy access to Henley and surrounds.
    Great value at the money, you won't get better. Couple of bits they did for us(which I won't mention) that were so far above and beyond. Lovely place and lovely people

  • 5* star B&B No Sir its 6* Star plus 2* more stars for the owners
    On arrival greeted by the most glamourous landlady Natalie and Husband Ray with a welcome glass of Prosecco to there beautiful 600 year old house ,instantly transported to a world of luxury and precision to detail. Thank you for the privilege of staying in your wonderful comer of the world.

    " Oh you are going to a wedding in the middle of nowhere , don't worry ,we will take you and bring you back " Natalie said and did all part of the service. ( Four seasons Hotel look out )
    The rooms are tastefully stylised with spotlessly clean facilities and are beyond expectation, we stayed 2 nights. The breakfast choices were varied and would please any food lover Full English, Smoked Salmon and Eggs, to a myriad of preserves fruit and yogurts , Natalie's home made marmalade appealed to my bitter taste, yummy.

  • Such wonderful hosts. Perfect place to stay after Tough Mudder, so relaxing and in gorgeous surroundings. Natalie and Raymond were so kind to me. I really appreciated the Prosecco on arrival!
    Tips for other travellers
    Perfect location just outside the bustle of Henley, nearby though for lovely walks, restaurants/bars and shopping.

    — Traveller from Isleworth, GB, Freetobook.com, 08 май 2019

  • Magic place!!!!
    I've never made a review before, but i travel a lot. Natalie deserve this, because of her warm kindness and elegant details. Wonderful place, wonderful rooms and special breakfast. Don't forget to buy her orange marmelade.

    — Alessandro B, TripAdvisor.co.uk, 07 май 2019

    — Peter and Jane, 06 май 2019

  • Blown away by the service and welcome from Natalie and Ray. Let us park up early and welcomed us with a chat and glass of Prosecco. Add to this booking Michelin starred restaurant and arranging lifts to and fro to Henley, service worth more than a 10. Bargain for the money. Great facilities in a great location, can’t wait to return. Thanks guys
    Tips for other travellers
    Great location for Henley and surrounding areas. Michelin star food next door, Natalie booked this for us.

    — Traveller from Westbrook, GB, Freetobook.com, 06 май 2019

  • Natalie and Ray greeted us with a very warm welcome. Perfect location. The facilities were outstanding and we felt at home straight away. Fantastic breakfast.

  • Perfect stay in Henley.

    Perfect from start to finish. Luxury facilities, beautiful location, amazing welcome and so well looked after by Natalie and Ray. 11/10

    — Neil , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 2075678785 , 05 май 2019

  • Fantastic

    Absolutely faultless..rooms amazing really are 5 star the most tasteful decor. Ray and Natalie are first class hosts it was a real privilege to have stayed with them. Breakfast was superb lots of choice. You would not be disappointed if you stayed here, we cannot wait to return.

    Nothing to dislike.

    — Anonymous, Booking.com, 23 апр 2019

  • Perfect.
    A perfect little escape to the countryside. Natalie and Raymond were perfect hosts and made us feel very at home. Would definitely visit again.

    — Aaron , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 2710812143 , 21 апр 2019

  • Tranquility, peace and friendly ambience.

    Lovely B&B in sunny tranquil setting. Romantic & right next door to a great gastro-pub too :) Friendly staff. Clean room & great breakfast.

    Liked everything.

    — Denise , (GB) Booking.com, Reservation Number 2403287930 , 20 апр 2019

  • Fantastic hosts who couldn't do enough to help. Breakfast vast and delicious. Location was spot on for what we wanted.

    — Fiona , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 2251129497 , 19 апр 2019

  • Fabulous Stay
    A truly wonderful property with the most amazing hosts. The room was gorgeous with every comfort and impeccably clean. The welcome was second to none and we still have dreams about the breakfasts.
    The location is ideal, just a short ride from the town whilst also deep in the heart of the countryside. Plenty of attractions nearby and wonderful pubs as well. We echo the conclusion of previous visitors who say it is the best they have ever stayed in. We will visit again without a shadow of a doubt.

  • Handywater Cottage excels again!

    We have stayed at Handywater on several occasions. As usual our kind hosts Natalie and Ray were there to welcome us to their lovely , luxury B&B. We stayed in the new rooms built in 2018 and the stay was excellent in every respect. In our view it is by a long way the best accommodation in Henley. Rooms are modern, beds very comfortable with very high quality en-suite bathrooms. The new rooms contain a pleasant seating area. Breakfast using locally sourced materials was excellent and cooked to your order. Location just outside Henley is peaceful and the garden area very nice. You can park inside the cottage grounds in a secure area. I can honestly say that I find improvements very difficult to identify. Above all Ray and Natalie are outstanding hosts and we are looking forward to returning later this year.

    — adcta, TripAdvisor.co.uk, 16 апр 2019

  • A lovely 2 night stay in beautiful accommodation.Super breakfast and very friendly owners.

    Everything was fabulous..No complaints at all.

    — Carole , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 1485009456 , 15 апр 2019

  • Immaculate
    What a stylish place; purpose built chalets, backing on to open fields and hills. The rooms are beautifully presented and well maintained, with lots of little gestures you’d only expect to find in the most luxurious hotels (eye masks, for example), as well as tea & coffee in the room, mini toiletry pack etc.

    Breakfast was included and was delicious, with eggs from their own hens and homemade marmalade.

    The icing on the cake, however, is provided by the owners, Natalie and Ray who not only welcome guests with open arms (and, in our case, a glass of Prosecco) but also make the most hilarious double act (gently bickering in the most loving way).

    We were attending a wedding reception locally (at the Crown Inn in Pishill) and Ray kindly drove us over there in the afternoon; good job too since the local taxi firm (based in Henley-on-Thames) charged an extortionate £25 for the return journey in the evening.

    I can’t recommend this B&B highly enough. The rooms aren’t cheap but we had a lovely time, slept well, ate well and felt generally well looked after.

    — Follow LastMinute.Mum, TripAdvisor.co.uk, 14 апр 2019

  • Stunning.
    What a wonderful B/B. We stayed 2 nights and it should have been longer. Exceptional friendly hosts with a beautiful home and luxury guest accommodation. The situation is idyllic, the breakfast amazing and everything is so clean and comfortable. Within easy reach of Henley but also quiet and peaceful. Go and see for yourself but be prepared to be impressed and to feel you have to go again.

    — Fearless31178684194, TripAdvisor.com, 08 апр 2019

  • A wonderful place to stay, hosts were lovely and so accommodating. The best b&b we’ve stayed in. I would highly recommend staying at Handywater Cottage.

    — Hart, Freetobook.com, 08 апр 2019

  • A truly wonderful stay. Lovely friendly hosts who were so good at looking after you and making sure you had an excellent time. A great location, peaceful, yet also within easy reach of Henley. The room and food were both stunning and this was simply the best B/B we have ever visited.
    Tips for other travellers:
    Lots to see and do. Good national trust properties, exceptional pubs and restaurants, great walks and of course the riverside as well.

    — Bromley, Freetobook.com, 08 апр 2019

  • Excellent accommodation
    Very warm welcome from Ray.and Natalie and much appreciated glass of prosecco
    and enjoyable chat
    A very kind caring couple who could not have made us feel more welcome
    Accommodation excellent in peaceful surroundings
    All furnishings excellent and comfortable bed are found in the attractive units
    Thank you to you both

    Tips for other travellers
    Restaurant next door which we didn’t need to use as had already eaten
    Close to Henley and main roads the property is situated in a peaceful countryside setting so ideal for those wanting to attend the festivals but needing a good nights sleep!
    Would highly recommend

    — John Reed, Colchester, GB , 31 мар 2019

  • The place is very nice and the performance and the rooms are big and luxurious and worthy of five stars and the owner is very helpful and courteous and they provide many services that feel you are between your family and will come back again المكان جداً جميل وهداء والغرف كبيره وفخمه وتستحق خمس نجوم والمالك متعاونين ولطيفين جداً ويقدمون خدمات كثيره تشعرك انك بين اسرتك وسوف اعود مره اخرى

    Everything is wonderful

  • Everything was outstanding.

    — Alison , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 1058936054 , 10 мар 2019

  • Beautiful cottage and delightful hosts.

    Breakfast was delicious, the hosts were very welcoming, friendly and thoughtful. We were greeted with a glass of prosecco and a faultless stay.

    — Pedro Da Silva , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 1145789629 , 10 мар 2019

  • Natalie & Ray are the most wonderful hosts and their properties are of the highest quality. I booked all four of their cottages to accommodate friends who were attending my 70th Birthday Party in the next door restaurant. Every one of them was delighted with their rooms, the quality of the breakfast and the friendly welcome. The cottages are in a lovely position close to Henley and many of the lovely walks in the area.

    — Michael Moore, 04 мар 2019

  • We felt that we arrived as guests and left as friends.

    Natalie & Ray were the perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble from inviting us to a welcome drink to providing an amazing breakfast the following morning. The room was modern and clean and absolutely everything you could possibly want was provided. Additionally the view from the room across the valley together with a patio made it exceptional. We have never stayed anywhere where the hosts have been so attentive and friendly. It is definitely not to be missed if you are staying anywhere near Henley on Thames.

    There was absolutely nothing about the place or the hosts that anyone could possible dislike.

    — Anthony , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 1522338588 , 24 фев 2019

  • Everything! It’s fabulous! Natalie and Ray are a gorgeous charming couple. We were greeted with a lovely glass of Prosecco and sat chatting to them in their beautiful cottage kitchen. It felt like being with old friends. Our room in the courtyard opposite was absolutely stunning. Attention to detail is faultless! It’s one of myself best B & Bs we have stayed in. Beautiful bed bedding towels toiletries. Just perfection we will be back!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    — Chrissie , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 1769370241, 22 янв 2019

  • If I could rate any higher I would!
    Not only was the room large, clean and comfortable, the hosts could not be more welcoming. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel at home. It really was an outstanding place to stay and we will certainly be returning.

    — Nick, Booking.com, Reservation Number 1689681982 , 13 янв 2019

  • Exceptional
    Lovely place, fabulous hosts. Would definitely recommend.

    — Georgina , (GB), Booking.com, Reservation Number 1365063472, 10 дек 2018

  • Wonderful accommodation, beautifully presented. The owners Ray and Natalie are absolutely charming and nothing is too much trouble. Being forced to stay in large characterless hotels while working it has been much more enjoyable since retiring to stay in small hotels and delightful B and Bs worldwide like Handywater Cottage. We’ve toured extensively in Europe, Brazil, South Africa, New Zealand and I can honestly say Natalie’s breakfast is right up with the best worldwide!
    Tips for other travellers
    Handywater Cottage is lovely and ideally placed for visiting Henley. Having a lovely pub and restaurant next door - but not intrusively so is perfect.

    — Felicity White, Booking.com, Reservation number 1652314308, 07 дек 2018

  • A wonderful experience from the moment we pulled onto the drive of this beautiful property.
    Ray and Natalie are such charming hosts we both wished we’d had longer to enjoy their company. The B and B is superb, pristinely clean and Natalie’s breakfast was the best we’ve had in a very long time. Perfection!

    — Felicity , (GB), Reservation Number 1652314308, Booking.com , 06 дек 2018

  • Fantastic property, very warm friendly welcome.
    Very friendly couple, we loved this property our stay and the local knowledge provided by both Ray and Natalie was invaluable.

    — Debra , (GB), Reservation number 1600235923, Booking.com, 29 ноя 2018

  • A lovely place in a beautiful setting with wonderful hosts.
    Natalie was a fantastic host, greeting us with a glass of prosecco and nothing was too much trouble. We enquired about an earlier breakfast as we had to be out early and told that we could have breakfast any time. Will certainly book again next year.
    There was nothing we didn't like

    — Delia , (GB) Reservation number 2017245279, Booking.com, 27 ноя 2018

  • Fabulous Bed fabulous breakfast
    Guests stay in cottages set apart from the main house. The cottages themselves are charming, very tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable. The couple who run them from the main house are absolutely delightful and it is a long time since i’ve been presented with such a generous and delicious breakfast. As a place to stay for one night/a week/a month.....I could not recommend it highly enough.

    — oliverrudland, TripAdvisor.com, 24 ноя 2018

  • Looking forward to staying again Stephen and Julie.
    We was made to feel very welcome the moment we arrived this is one of the best places you would like to stay.

  • This is one of the best B&B's we have EVER visited...

    This is one of the best B&B's we have EVER visited... I really wanted to take my partner to visit Henley-On-Thames for our 2 year Anniversary. Looking around for local B&B's I came across the gorgeous Handywater Cottage and the genuine couple and hosts – Natalie (who runs and manages the B&B) and Ray (who provides the entertainment). I read all the reviews on Booking.com with a little pinch of salt. Could it really be as amazing as all the recommendations were implying? I needn't of worried. Not only did Handywater Cottage meet our expectations, it far far exceeded them. 5 STARS and 10/10 until the cows come home! From the kind and warm welcome (and the delicious prosecco shared with our hosts when we arrived) to the gorgeous cottage we stayed in – it was such a magical experience. Natalie and Ray really could not have done any more for us. The room was stunning and spotless, the bed super comfy with all the mod cons you could ask for. Set in a quiet and peaceful location that was exactly as described by many other reviewers on Booking.com Natalie also highly recommended The Golden Ball/Pub restaurant next door (Michelin Guide recommended for 10 consecutive years) that she booked in advance for us for our evening supper. Sublime food served in comfy and relaxed surroundings, with friendly and efficient staff. We loved it. After a well deserved night's sleep, Natalie's yummy homemade breakfast in the morning was a delight. Ray kindly ferried us into Henley-On-Thames for the day and picked us up to come back to The Handywater Cottage before we headed home to London. We had an amazing Autumn day exploring this beautiful town and walking along the river. Even though it was cold, the Sun didn't stop shining! We adored the cats, the nature, the cottage and the experience. But it was the hosts – Natalie and Ray that made the trip for us. Everything they did was done so so well. Simply brilliant!

    Honestly and sincerely, there is nothing to complain about even in the slightest. Natalie's attention to detail and creativeness was sublime, coupled with Ray's humour and hospitality made for such a wonderful combination. Genuinely a memorable trip. Our only regret? We wish we could have stayed longer!

    — Ranjit Sehambi , (GB), Reservation number 1604241340, Booking.com, 19 ноя 2018

  • Fabulous stay.
    We have had the most perfect overnight stay with our friends at Handywater Cottage . Natalie and Raymond welcomed us with Prosecco, and couldn’t have been kinder hosts. Breakfast was sumptuous and the local area is beautiful for walking. Thank you.

    — Nyall , (GB), Reservation number 143243068, Booking.com, 18 ноя 2018

  • Relaxing after long flight. Easy drive from Heathrow yet in the heart of English countryside.
    wonderful breakfast

    — Ashley , (AU), Reservation number 1381626229, Booking.com, 15 ноя 2018

  • Absolutely beautiful setting! What a view! Loved our room - comfortable bed, lovely bathroom with a great shower and the room was lovely and warm on a cold evening. Lovely touches such as a glass of bubbles on check in and a complimentary fridge of drinks! The breakfast was clearly quality ingredients and was bountiful and delicious!

    — Lee , (GB), Reservation number 1067858478, Booking.com, 11 ноя 2018

  • A 5 star accommodation.
    Everything ...... the owners were just wonderful, they were so very very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The accommodation was just beautiful and spotlessly clean. The location was excellent, so peaceful but with easy access into Henley.

    — DIANE SUMNER , (GB), Reservation number 1492349163, Booking.com, 05 ноя 2018

  • One of the best places to stay. Brilliant customer service and great breakfast. Very friendly- can't do enough for you! Great rooms with super comfy bed. Beautiful surroundings. One word... SUPERB! Looking forward to going back.

    — Sean Murrells, 28 окт 2018

  • Just had a lovely night as guests of Natalie and Ray who go way above your expections as hosts not only do they have a beautiful home that they invite you into as if old friends but a maticlous business that is run with every need catered to so to insure a great stay, I will be returning very soon

    — Jo woolcott, 28 окт 2018

  • Ray and Natalie are excellent hosts, the property and rooms are great: 10 out of 10!

    — Mark , (LU), Reservation number 1625590963, Booking.com, 25 окт 2018

  • Beautiful location, immaculate room, delicious breakfast and warm, friendly hosts!
    The hosts, Natalie and Raymond, are absolutely lovely. The room was immaculately clean and the bed was comfy. The view from the patio in the morning was stunning. Such a fantastic stay and the breakfast alone was worth a return visit! Thanks for having us!
    Nothing - would not think twice about recommending this place!

    — Alice, (GB), Reservation number 1162950773, Booking.com, 07 окт 2018

  • A Wonderful B & B with Amazing Facilities and Hospitality.
    We were made to feel very welcome upon our arrival at Handywater. Natalie and Ray are the perfect hosts and their wonderful "Cottage" is beyond what most people might expect in the category of a B & B ! Magnificent and extremely comfortable room (Lavender) with all the facilities to match - we had a wonderful stay. Breakfast was in an amazing setting and Natalie went more than the extra mile to make it really enjoyable. Thank you both for your "Friendship" and your "outstanding hospitality" - we have your contact details in the phone ready for our next visit !

    — John, (GB), Reservation number 2091264970, Booking.com, 02 окт 2018

  • Wow, amazing and definitely a location/venue I would recommend.
    It is the most amazing B&B I have ever stayed in. Natalie and Ray are amazing hosts and made us feel incredibly welcome. I would recommend Handywater to anyone that asked me and we will definitely be going back again in the near future.
    We liked everything and do not have a negative word to say about Handywater.

    — Christine, (GB), Reservation number 1425335964, Booking.com, 01 окт 2018

  • Exceptional
    Handywater is an amazing little gem just outside Henley on Thames. There are many great walks you can take just outside the premise and Henley on Thames is a simple 20 minute walk or 5 minute drive. Next door is a great restaurant (Mary Berry ate in there when we visited!) but you are also welcome to eat your own food in the room, plates, cups and cutlery are provided. Breakfast was exceptional, you can choose from a wide range of food and cute touches such as fruit kebabs and a smiley face in the butter! :) The B&B is surrounded by the Chilterns beauty and has a charming garden to relax in. We stayed in the sunflower room which was very spacious and immaculately clean. The room had everything you'd need, including a mini fridge, walk in wardrobe, ironing board and iron, tea and coffee making facilities, toiletries and a hairdryer. The shower had a great pressure and you can choose normal or rainfall. Natalie and Ray were wonderful hosts, they showed us some walks we could do and said they could pick us up if we got tired. They were very willing to hell with any queries we had! Thank you for a fabulous stay, we hope to return soon!
    I couldn't fault it

    — Amber Davison, (GB), Booking.com, 30 сен 2018

  • Delightful in every way.
    When was the last time you stayed at a B&B where the proprietor actually was engaged and seem to care about you? Natalie and Ray are wonderful hosts that ensured all of our cares disappeared and we had a lovely stay. This is outside of the city center, yet not an issue. Close to the train and a delightful town to enjoy the river, park, pubs and shopping. We relaxed in the gardens with the pets. I read for hours in bliss. There is a Michelin star restaurant next door - so heading to town for dinner is not necessary. The crowning touch is the breakfast. It is fully customizable and you can still add and change in the morning. Delicious and such grand service. I do not see how you could be disappointed with a stay here. We were in the Sunflower room which was quite spacious and wonderful. Also, easy access to Heathrow airport. This was our alternative to London at the end of our Tour. There is also an Ale Trail where you can earn a T shirt, yet we did not have enough time (or perseverance) to make it to 9 pubs.

    — Loricpa100 San Jose, California, TripAdvisor, 24 сен 2018

  • If there were Michelin Stars for B&B's then HandyWater deserves 3.
    This was a B&B par Excellence. From initial arrival to leaving, Natalie & Raymond could not have been more friendly and attentive to every need. Immaculate room and facilities. Most comfortable bed (We had uninterrupted sleep each night). Superb breakfast. Must not forget the most welcome glass or two of Prosecco on arrival. We do not normally visit the same place twice but I know we will make an exception with the Handywater Cottage B&B.

    — Charles, (GB), Booking.com, 14 сен 2018

  • Five stars and definitely 10/10 for us. Cannot fault the accommodation, the location or the hospitality. Natalie and Ray went the extra mile (literally with the pick ups and drop offs!) to ensure our stay was great. Would recommend and also stay again when we are in the area. Many thanks Anne and Ryan

    — Anne Walker, 10 сен 2018

  • Everything and more of our expectations.
    We were made to feel very welcome, the accommodation was spotless the setting very peaceful.
    No downside whatsoever.

  • 5 star treatment

Huge choice of breakfast basically anything you wanted top quality food and service . these guys are so friendly they really do make you feel at ease with the luxury touch .

  • Exceeded Expectations in every category!
    Everything. Staff were INCREDIBLE! So welcoming and accommodating. Room was exceptional and I didn't want to get out of the bed. Views were awe dropping. Breakfast was phenomenal. Couldn't have asked for any more. Exceeded expectations in every category.

  • Be prepared to be wowed by Natalie's hospitality & the quality of this accommodation. It really is 5 star! Great hosts, a lovely property in a wonderful rural setting. A fantastic breakfast included - well worth a visit.

    — Derrick, AirBnB.com, 31 авг 2018

  • Outstanding!
    Simply Outstanding!! Beautiful premises and the rooms are sheer luxury! Spotlessly clean and VERY comfortable beds. Very thoughtful touches with complimentary water and soft drinks and luxury toiletries. Though this is just the tip of the iceberg.. the premises are fantastic with gorgeous manicured grounds and beautiful views. Greeted by the most wonderful hosts, Natalie and Ray who offered us Prosecco on arrival and were so warm and welcoming. Natalie and Ray went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic stay including kindly transporting us to and from a local festival and providing hearty breakfasts of outstanding quality with various options available. This is truly the best accomodation I have ever stayed in and I can't wait to book again next time we are in the UK. Thank you very much Ray and Natalie!!

    — Jennifer, (NZ), Booking.com, 29 авг 2018

  • Amazing couple, couldnt do enough for us.
    Everything was amazing, we even got a lift to the wedding venue that we were attending! Raymond and natalie could not do enough for us! The room was very clean and facilities very good, 2 mins drive from henley and a prosecco on arrival what more could you ask for! Would recommend to anyone visiting Henley!

    — Liam, (GB), Booking.com, 27 авг 2018

  • Natalie and Ray are the perfect hosts. We loved everything about our stay from the friendly welcome with prosecco to the facilities in the room (complimentary soft drinks, toiletries and fab shower) and the lovely breakfast made by Natalie's own fair hands. Ray's great sense of humour and the free taxi service to/from the festival just topped off the perfection!! Would love to give it a terrible review just to keep it a secret so there will be space for us in the future, but that wouldn't be fair. Definitely recommend this 5* luxury B&B to anyone wanting a stay in or around the Henley area. We'll be back !!

    There was nothing at all to dislike!! However, as someone who likes a cool room I found it a bit too warm; so with the window open, the fan on and removing the duvet from the cover we had a great night's sleep!

    — Susan, (GB), Booking.com, 21 авг 2018

  • A fabulous place to stay.
    The facilities and location are second to none, the hospitality from Natalie and Ray is amazing and breakfast is a delight. There is nothing to dislike about Handywater Cottage.

    — Julia, (GB), Booking.com, 17 авг 2018

  • Amazing.
    Everything the place and location was exceptional. The host and hostess did everything to ensure we had everything we needed and even dropped us off at the venue we were attending. When we walked into our accommodation I felt as though I had stepped into our own honeymoon suit. Fantastic!

    — Christine, (GB), Booking.com, 14 авг 2018

  • Definitely worth staying.
    Very friendly, very clean, nice and quiet, in the country, secure parking, nice food, short drive to Henley, chickens and a donkey.

    — Stuart, (GB), Booking.com, 13 авг 2018

  • Lovely to be offered a lift when we went to order a taxi. Clean and friendly.
    If you like your own space you may find the owners slightly over-bearing

    — Marnie, (GB), Booking.com, 13 авг 2018

  • Amazing find, 5 star b & b
    We loved the whole experience. Natalie and Raymond are such warm friendly people. They can’t do enough for you.. If we are in the area again we will certainly be back.

    — julie, (GB), Booking.com, 13 авг 2018

  • The best BnB we have ever stayed in!
    The wonderful greeting by the hosts. The feeling of luxury in every aspect of the room - and the main house for breakfast! Breakfast was excellent and freshly prepared to order. The gastro-pub next door was an added bonus and also excellent.
    There was absolutely nothing to dislike!!

    — Peter, (GB), Booking.com, 12 авг 2018

  • Fabulous.
    Lovely place to stay a real gem, lots of care has gone into the facilities , hosts Natalie and Ray are amazing and make you so welcome, definitely recommend to friends, and will return soon

    Location is not in town, but in nice and quiet countryside setting.

    — Robert, (LU), Booking.com, 06 авг 2018

  • Absolutely perfect, sorry we had to leave early and miss breakfast!
    Incredibly welcoming and friendly, we were offered complimentary prosecco on arrival, and our hosts booked a table for dinner for us so we didn't have the hassle. They were also kind enough to drive us into Henley to enjoy a day out.

    — Colin, (GB), Booking.com, 05 авг 2018

  • Skvělý hotel domácího typu přátelské prostředí skvělí majitelé a opravdu úžasná anglická snídaně a fantastic breakfast , friendly owners I can recommend

  • Great shower, comfortable bed, beautiful room and great hosts!

    — Maura, (GB), Booking.com, 31 июл 2018

  • The best place to stay for a short trip to beautiful Henley!
    This is quite literally the best B&B we have ever stayed in. Incredible location, with impeccable facilities - and the hosts Natalie and Ray made us feel incredibly welcome (and even offered to drive us to and from the local pub..if we fancied a drink that evening) There is also a Michelin - starred pub next door, with rabbits etc. / other animals in the beer garden if you don't fancy travelling too far. Cannot recommend highly enough for a relaxing / chic stay in Henley!

    — Andrew, (GB), Booking.com, 30 июл 2018

  • Handywater Cottage ist ein ganz besonderes B&B, wo wir uns rundherum wohl gefühlt haben.
    Handywater Cottage hat unsere Erwartungen trotzt der gelesenen sehr guten Bewertungen übertroffen. Es gibt zwei separate Gebäude mit je zwei Zimmern. In einem Gebäude sind noch Terrassen mit Blick in die Natur vor den Zimmern. Die Zimmer sind überdurchschnittlich hochwertig und mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Im begehbaren Kleiderschrank befindet sich ein Kühlschrank voll mit verschiedenen (nichtalkoholischen) Getränken, die gratis zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Ebenso Kaffee und Tee zum Selberaufbrühen. Das Highlight dieser Unterkunft sind jedoch die Gastgeber Nathalie und Raymond, die uns das Gefühl gegeben haben, Freunde zu besuchen. Wir haben uns nach viel zu kurzen 3 Nächten mit großer Wehmut vom Handywater Cottage verabschiedet und werden bestimmt noch einmal kommen! Vielen Dank für die tollen Tage!!! We miss you!

    Handywater Cottage is a very special B&B, where we felt comfortable all around.
    Handywater Cottage has surpassed our expectations despite the very good reviews read. There are two separate buildings with two rooms each. In a building are still terraces with a view in the nature in front of the rooms. The rooms are above average high quality and furnished with great attention to detail. In the walk-in wardrobe there is a fridge full of various (non-alcoholic) drinks, which are provided free of charge. Coffee and tea are also brewed. The highlight of this accommodation, however, are the hosts Nathalie and Raymond, who have given us the feeling of visiting friends. After much too short 3 nights we passed with great melancholy from the Handywater cottage and will definitely come again! Thanks for the great days!!! We miss you!

    — Antje, (DE), Booking.com, 27 июл 2018

  • Very pleasant experience.
    Made very welcome on arrival and found everything rather super.

    — Peter, (GB), Booking.com, 27 июл 2018

  • Excellent in every respect and left a warm feeling that we will return.
    This is simply the most comfortable B&B we have stayed in recently. The owners were outstandin in their welcome. Nothing too much trouble.

    — Grainger, (GB), Booking.com , 18 июл 2018

  • Excellent B&B in beautiful location run by very nice and helpful people.
    Very friendly owners. Very nice property in lovely location. Breakfast was excellent. The room was very comfortable with the best bed/ mattress I slept in for a long time.

    — Roland, (GB), Booking.com, 16 июл 2018

  • Handywater is truly a special place. We could not have picked a better location. Our hosts, Natalie and Raymond, are truly special folks. Their hospitality, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering a first class experience is unmatched. And the property is an oasis of comfort and peace, especially after a busy day of sightseeing and/or travel. The breakfasts were also special, especially when outside over-looking the wonderful scenery. Handywater will certainly be a place we will return to.

    — Macauley Nash, AirBnB , 16 июл 2018

  • Impressive.
    Unfortunately we could only stay one night. First class accommodation with attention to fine detail. Hosts were obliging in every way. Highly recommended ☆☆☆☆☆

    — Barry Reynolds, (GB), Booking.com, 12 июл 2018

  • Everything was excellent. Our hosts were very kind and generous. Would highly recommend.

    The owners are some of the nicest, helpful thoughtful people we’ve met, the location and room were stunning and the breakfast could have fed double the guests..... stunning

    — Roger, (GB), Booking.com, 08 июл 2018

  • 7 stars B&B! Bonuses to both Natalie and her lovely husband.
    Had a perfect time with my sister, fantastic house, high spec facilities everywhere! The owners are so friendly, kind and wonderful! Even the pets are welcoming and warm. Breakfast was the best we’ve ever had. Rich and tasty, much more than expected. The room was amazingly comfortable and the views are stunning.
    We didn’t like to leave. Will certainly be back!

    — Esther, (GB), Booking.com, 03 июл 2018

  • Natalie and Ray are the most wonderful hosts, we loved our time at Handywater Cottage B&B. The rooms are beautiful, tasteful and spacious & everywhere was spotless! Super comfy beds and a shower that really was exceptional.
    The grounds of the B&B are so pretty and being able to meet the chickens (and with Ray's expert guidance pick one up), feed the fish and spend time with their two beautiful cats was very special.
    Natalie is the ultimate hostess and her breakfast is second to none...from oodles of fruit and yogurt to the most delicious cooked breakfast any of us have had in a long time...endless coffee and juice too.
    Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful B&B and we cannot wait to find an excuse to come back.
    Most certainly worth your 5* status...you exceed on every level!

    — Jason, Mat and Claire (waterbabyclaire@me.com), 02 июл 2018

  • Great B&B on the outskirts of Henley.
    The hosts where so helpful and friendly, you where welcomed like a friend of the family. The room and ensuite where 1st class with great attention to detail. Breakfast in the main house was the best I've ever had.

    — Traveling Builder, (GB), Booking.com, 02 июл 2018

  • 5* ++ luxury, great food and chat and we cannot wait to return!!!
    The accommodation is well beyond 5*! Location is excellent, the rooms are beautiful, the cottage grounds are stunning and the interaction with the owners was great. They will be as hands on or hands off as you need/want - nothing is too much trouble for them. Natalie’s breakfast is AMAZING!!!!!!!!! We loved meeting the cats and the chickens and getting a lesson from Ray on how to hold a chicken. Fabulous experience, smashing hosts and amazing accommodation and food!!

    — Claire, (GB), Booking.com, 02 июл 2018

  • Amazing breakfast. Ray and Natalie are such lovely people and very accommodating. They cooked a lovely breakfast which we chose the day we arrived. Ray even kindly gave us a lift back into Henley and pick us up after dinner !! Highly recommend and def going back.

    — Nina, (GB), Booking.com, 26 июн 2018

  • We have had a wonderful stay for four nights! A beautiful home, very clean romms and generous and welcoming hosts. We recommend without hesitation Handywater Cottage. There are also beautiful walks along the river Thames and interesting manors like Disrealis House or Greys Court. When we arrived we were warmly welcomed with prosecco. We were made to feel welcome. Natalie and Ray are a lovely and caring couple who enjoy having guests from all parts of the world. Natalie and Ray drove their guests to hidden and romantic pubs for supper. The breakfast was outstanding. There were many personal touches we enjoyed . The breakfast was wonderful and plentiful. Most of all we enjoyed good and witty conversations with Ray, Natalie and other guests. We will be back as soon as we can. Thank you for a wonderful and unforgettable stay. See you soon Natalie and Ray either in Lower Assendon or in Switzerland. And thank you so much for our beloved Laphroig which strengthend our mood and soul.

  • Beautiful rural setting and caring hosts.
    Natalie and Ray couldn't have done any more to make our stay enjoyable. They arranged for restaurants and dropped us off, and we enjoyed delicious breakfasts that Natalie cooked. They have a lovely house with cottages and chickens out the back.

    — Megan, (AU), Booking.com, 17 июн 2018

  • Exquisite accommodation and the most perfect hosts who made us welcome from the second we arrived.
    Plenty of great restaurants nearby and an excellent base for visiting Henley-on-Thames and Marlow or if you prefer to just relax with a drink on the patio and enjoy the countryside.
    There was nothing to dislike

    — William, (GB), Booking.com, 17 июн 2018

  • Fabulous & relaxing.
    Everything from the moment we arrived Natalie & Raymond were so warm & welcoming we felt more like friends visiting, A glass of fizz on there patio on arrival, Went down a treat after the car journey, The rooms are in excellent decor beds so comfortable , being able to sit out on the patio , with beautiful views , added bonus for me with the great weather the breakfast was amazing , they are a truly genuine lovely couple , they took us to some lovely eateries over our 3 night stay , we also made friends with another couple staying too who were be staying in touch with.

    — Kevin, (GB), Booking.com, 15 июн 2018

  • Exceptionally clean with thoughtful touches such as bottled water in the room, delicious breakfast and very comfortable beds. The owners were two of the most genuinely warm and fun people and we really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended.

    — Melissa, (GB), Booking.com, 11 июн 2018

  • The very best B&B you are ever likely to find !
    To start .. the welcome we received when we arrived was as if we were long lost friends ! Prosseco as you sign in and time to get to know the wonderful hosts Ray and Natalie. Having checked if we would like them to take us into Henley for a party we were shown to a fantastic and tasteful room with a great countryside view and a spacious en suite ( also immaculate ) Breakfast which was cooked to perfection was served in a lovely dining room with very attentive service from both Natalie and Ray . We noticed Ray collecting the eggs for breakfast from his chickens first thing in the morning . Finally we were waved away after a thoroughly enjoyable stay . Finally I would conclude that it really isn't an exaggeration that you really would be hard pushed to find somewhere on a par . Thank you Ray and Natalie ,we will be back.

    — Brendanr guildford surrey, TripAdvisor, 10 июн 2018

  • A truly wonderful experience. The site, the accommodation, the food absolutely first class.

    Our sincere regards. Pat and John

  • Our stay exceeded all expectations and we will certainly be visiting again.
    We arrived late on a hot afternoon and Ray and Natalie welcomed us with a cold glass of Prosecco in their lovely garden. Our stay exceeded all expectations. The chalet with en suite shower room was spotless and very tastefully decorated. The bed was king size and wonderfully comfortable. An extra bonus was the lovely patio with gorgeous views across the Oxfordshire countryside. Our hosts could not have been more gracious and helpful, and we will certainly be back.

    — Anonymous, Booking.com, 11 май 2018

  • Outstanding - Honestly the best B & B we have ever stayed in, worldwide.
    From the moment we arrived and were warmly welcomed with a glass of prosecco, to the moment we left having bought two jars of Natalies' gorgeous home made marmalade, we were made to feel so welcome. Natalie and Ray are a lovely couple and seemed to genuinely enjoy having their visitors. The view from our cottage was beautiful overlooking a paddock with fruit trees in blossom and chickens. We were staying in Henley as my husband was running a 'Tough Mudder' event. He mentioned to Ray that he would be receiving a bottle of cider as he completed the event. Ray asked him if he would like one when he got back that evening. When we arrived back, as soon as we drove up Natalie appeared with two cold bottles of cider and glasses. They really do treat you as part of the family. The breakfast was absolutely the best we have ever had. The personal touches like a blackboard with a personal message for you, together with expected weather for the day. A little smiley face in the butter, music playing. The food was wonderful and plentiful too. Scrambled egg and a mountain of smoked salmon (eggs from the chickens), fruit skewers, porridge, cereals, juice, tea, coffee, croissants, toast, yoghurt and more. Natalie and Ray, we will most definitely be back. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable stay. Carole and Andy x

    The weather! Even then, there are umbrellas outside the cottage in case it rained.

    — Carole, (GB), Booking.com, 06 май 2018

  • What a wonderful place to stay! The location is beautiful and Natalie and Ray are perfect hosts! If you want a touch of luxury - stay here!
    A huge thanks to you both, you are the perfect hosts! Apologies for not finishing my breakfast - I blame the Prosecco! X

    — Amy Pritchard, AirBnB.co.uk, 02 май 2018

  • Everything was perfect. Raymond and Natalie’s attention to detail along with the welcoming Prosecco, being our taxi to town, the incredible breakfast and comfy bed made our stay 6 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    — Shelley, (GB), Booking.com, 19 апр 2018

  • Short weekend break.
    Ray and Natalie were fantastic hosts. The accommodation is great (can't think of anythijg negative to say) and the breakfast was amazing; cannot usurp the egg which was fresh that morning. They went out of their way to help and their warmth adds to the stay, and they were happy to provide us with a taxi service to and from Henley. Will definitely stay again in future. A lovely part of the world also.

    — Johnny Kersse, (GB), Booking.com, 15 апр 2018

  • Absolutely the best B&B in the Henley area, and I can attest to this because I have stayed at them all.
    Natalie and Raymond are wonderful Hosts’ and have made my stays very special.
    The accommodations are excellent, and the breakfast undeniably superb. Eggs are right from the owners hens that freely roam about the grounds.
    The place is located in the wonderful English countryside, yet easy access to downtown Henley and an array of local restaurants nearby, one of which, I would never have discovered or even found had it not been for Natalie and Raymond. [That place is a must, and the proprietors will know where I mean. ]
    I truly look forward to my next visit.

    — Norman Cofalka, 12 апр 2018

  • My daughter and son in law spent a night at Handywater Cottage and they had a marvelous time. Ray and Natalie were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them. It is a beautiful setting and the bedroom was much more than 5* with every need catered for. My family would have no hesitation in returning to this lovely old house with a modern twist to the two standalone and private rooms in the grounds. Well worth a visit if you are near Henley. Penny

    — Penny Gilbert, 08 мар 2018

  • Better still having a pub serving great food next door by a chef who trained under Raymond Blanc!
    Excellent breakfast. Great home-from-home experience.

  • What a find!
    I booked this on behalf of friends who can quite fussy about accommodation, and this is what they told me to say - The room was very comfortable and well appointed. The owners were super helpful and friendly. The breakfast was absolutely amazing and we were even given some fresh eggs from the resident hens to take home.
    Nothing. Everything was perfect.

    — Gillian Wood, Facebook.com, 22 ноя 2017

  • Highly, highly recommended. Go treat yourself.
    Everything. Firstly the hosts Ray and Natalie are so welcoming, friendly, thoughtful and interesting. We only stayed one night, unfortunately, and departed feeling we had left good friends behind. Secondly the rooms are immaculate, spotlessly clean, peaceful, very comfortable beds and Natalie's attention to detail is to be applauded. Thirdly a lovely breakfast with healthy choices if required sets you up for the day. The whole package really exceeded our expectations, thank you again Ray and Natalie.

    — Andrew and Nikki, (GB), Booking.com, 20 ноя 2017

  • "Simply the best !!" Natalie and Ray run a fabulous BandB. The rooms are super and the breakfast is excellent, it really sets you up for the day. Natalie runs the show, whilst Ray takes care of Monty and Lollo (Burmese cats) and the garden.Fortunately we were warned in advance but still found Monty trying to stowaway in our car on the last day !! Would we recommend Handywater ? You bet we would. We had a wonderful three nights and will be back. Thank you Natalie, Ray, Monty and Lollo for a lovely time. xx

    — Adrian & Wendy Scott, 23 окт 2017

  • Amazing B&B.
    Everything is was perfect! We stayed here for a friends wedding but it was also our 7 year anniversary and they did everything to make it feel like a special break for us. The room was immaculately clean as if we were the first people to ever sleep in it and the service was fantastic. We woke up to and 5* breakfast, the choice wasn’t like anything I’ve had before! Choice of cooked breakfasts plus cereal, pastries, fruit and yoghurt all displayed so beautiful with fresh red roses! I couldn’t praise them more and it was absolutely worth the money spent.

    Just returned from an overnight stay at this fabulous place ! Where can I start ... beautiful location ! Beautiful accommodation! Very clean and very tastefully done , bed very comfy ! Was greeted on arrival by Natalie and few glasses of prosecco! What more can a girl ask for ! Natalie's breakfast was delicious! Would recommend highly as one of the nicest B&B's we've stayed will definitely return again for another stay !

    — Lucy W., TripAdvisor, 17 окт 2017

  • Truly a gem! I stayed here for a two night visit while conducting business in the area, and I must say I could've stayed for a month! The proprietors Ray and Natalie are the nicest people on the planet and the most gracious hosts you could ever ask for. The grounds and accommodations are beautiful and breakfast was scrumptious. The best part of the trip though was the caring that Ray and Natalie put in to ensure all my needs were cared for. Sometimes its the little things that one appreciates most. Thank you for your hospitality and I look forward to coming back again soon!

    — Steve Baker, TripAdvisor, 14 окт 2017

  • Great! Friendly, fun and arty quirkiness.
    The owners were very friendly, very hospitable. My only wish would have been that we didn't have to sit at the same table as others for breakfast. There are time spots but if others come for their time slot early or if you spend a bit longer than intended eating or waiting for food then others join you at same table. I'm sociable but not that sociable to share my breakfast table with strangers. For this price I would have expected a private breakfast room. Sorry but I was expecting it for us only. If there were more people it would have been very crowded and strangers eating together just didn't feel right. There should be another couple of tables available. We loved meeting the pets, cats, chickens and fish. Great happy and colourful artwork.All lovely. Thank you and hope the comments are not taken personally. Paula and Gareth.
    Eating on the same breakfast table with strangers was a bit awkward.

    — Paula, (GB), Booking.com, 09 окт 2017

    Really lovely, comfortable room in converted cow shed, attached to beautiful country cottage. Very nicely decorated rooms, little terrace at the back, very private with small table and chairs, perfect to watch the sunset. Right next door to Golden Ball Pub (food is superb!). Can't wait to go back. Breakfast was excellent. Hosts very friendly and knowledgeable about the surrounding areas, places to eat, shop etc.

    — FifiLeBonBon, (GB), Booking.com, 25 сен 2017

  • WOW.......the most lovely 500 year old cottage B & B owned and hosted by Ray and Natalie who gave us such a warm welcome that when we departed it felt as if we had been visiting old friends. The cottage and bedrooms have been restored with the finest attendance to detail and design, if we had looked for faults there were none. Greeted on arrival by both of them with a glass ( or 2 ) of prosecco we were made to feel very welcome. We were attending a cousin's wedding at the nearby Crooked Billet restaurant and Ray immediately insisted on taking us there and then collecting us when we were ready to leave the party, stopping on the way home around 10.30'ish to show us Ian Flemings mansion now a hospice run by Sue Ryder. We will be recommending Handywater to all our friends and we are already planning a return visit when we will spend time exploring nearby Henley on Thames. We stayed overnight from 23rd/24th September and wished we could have stayed another night.

  • Peaceful getaway.
    Such a warm welcome from Natalie & Ray. Beautiful house and gardens and amazing rooms. Lovely and quiet and a lovely pub next door. Natalie & Ray really went out of their way to make us feel welcome offering lifts and booking us tables for dinner. Thank you for a lovely weekend, we hope to see you again soon!

    — Rachael Kennedy, (GB), Booking.com, 18 сен 2017

  • Home away from home!
    If you are looking for a home away from home choose Handywater B&B. Natalie and Ray went above and beyond to make us feel welcome - particularly on arrival as we were greeted with...a glass of prosecco! They also offered their services as our personal taxi drivers into and home from town. The bedroom was beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. Thank you both for a weekend full of laughter!

    — Katie, (GB), Booking.com, 17 сен 2017

  • Absolutely marvellous !, we stayed over the recent Bank Holiday weekend for our 42nd wedding anniversary and can honestly say that 'perfection' does not do this location & accommodation full justice (there must be a stronger word !). From the lovely welcome right through to the most sincere 'good-bye', we felt that we were Royalty. Nothing was too much trouble for this lovely couple and as regular visitors to the Chilterns (from down here on the Isle of Wight) we will not be staying anywhere else in future. We have been fortunate-enough to have travelled extensively around the World over the years, staying in a wide variety of hotels, guest houses & b&b's, but Handywater certainly rates right up there at the top of the list. Well done Natalie and Ray and a great big 'thank you' - we shall see you again soon

    — Monica & Nigel, 04 сен 2017

  • This is the most fantastic B&B we have stayed in. Natalie & Ray are very welcoming, with a cold glass of proseco. The breakfast is fantastic and all freshly cooked, with a very comprehensive choice. The cottage is delightful and the bedroom we had, in the bungalow was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We highly recommend this place and will definately be staying again. Thank you both for a very enjoyable weekend.

    — Monica & Nigel, 31 авг 2017

  • It was home from home.
    Natalie& Ray are an extremely lovely couple, they made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The rooms are very comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic and so much choice!!. We will definitely be staying there again.

  • lovely people, lovely location, lovely stay!
    Natalie and Ray were so welcoming and friendly, - they really made us feel at home from the minute we arrived at their beautiful house. Our room felt so luxurious, from the huge double shower to the comfy sumptuous bed, it was perfect! The views of the surrounding countryside were stunning and the garden was so well kept and pretty. It really is a wonderful retreat, where you come away feeling relaxed and spoilt. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious as well! We shall definitely be returning one day :)
    Nothing, everything was perfect!

    — Samantha, (GB), Booking.com, 28 авг 2017

    Natalie and Raymond were fantastic! The whole stay was amazing - a lovely place. We will definitely be returning! I don't normally bother to review a place but it was sooo good.
    Everything was perfect.

    — Sara (GB), Booking.com, 27 авг 2017

  • Amazing comfy rooms and awesome breakfasts!
    Natalie and Raymond couldn't have been more hospitable and kind. They went to such lengths to ensure we had the best weekend. From booking us in to the local pub for lunch to the incredible breakfasts - it was all fab. We have already booked for next year!

    — Georgina P., TripAdvisor, 23 авг 2017

  • Best B&B I have stayed in.
    Handywater cottage is located in Little Assenden close to Henley on Thames and run and owned by Natalie and Ray. The quality of our two night stay was at the top end of excellent due to the kindness and help of our hosts. Our room was of a particularly high standard ( a vase of yellow roses adorned the room). Outside was a small patio where we could relax and enjoy the sun and rural view. The room was quiet; the bathroom was fitted with high quality materials and the bed large which meant a good night's sleep before enjoying a magnificent breakfast served in a lovely dining room. Next door is a great restaurant. We will go back.

    — adcta, TripAdvisor, 21 авг 2017

  • Natalie and Ray could not have made us feel more welcome. The Prosecco on arrival was a wonderful touch and very much enjoyed whilst sat in the sun on the patio overlooking the beautiful fields and countryside. The accommodation was stunning, exceptionally clean and homely and the full English home cooked breakfast before we left was just delicious. Everything about our stay was perfect - thank you for having us Natalie and Ray. Your home is a real credit to you both and we will be back to see you both next year!

    — Debbie E., AirBnB , 20 авг 2017

  • Fantastic Cottage!
    We had a very nice one night stay in this lovely cottage, which is located in a beautiful part of the country side.
    We were welcomed with a glass of Prosecco, by 2 very friendly hosts, Raymond and Natalie. They also have 2 very beautiful and friendly cats :)
    Rooms were very nice and clean.
    Also, a nice breakfast with a large selection was served in the morning.
    Thanks again to Natalie who prepared the breakfast very early (I was taking part to the Thames Marathon), and offered a lift to the Henley Leander Club.
    Highly recommended.

    — Stephane (Cambridge), TripAdvisor, 18 авг 2017

  • Beautiful accommodation, stunning location, perfect hosts!
    The cottages are tastefully decorated, extremely comfortable and the location is perfect. Five minutes away from a thriving, pretty Henley town centre which has the added bonus of being on the river. Natalie and Raymond made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Will definitely visit again.

    — Alice Clark, Facebook.com , 04 авг 2017

  • Wonderful B&B expertly run!
    Fantastic B&B, run expertly by the beautiful Natalie, supported by Raymond, an old sea dog full of tales of the high seas! They couldn't do enough for us! Divine beds, bedding, large shower and pretty patio! Breakfasts were a treat! Great location to Henley, will definitely stay again!
    Nothing, this was 100% perfect!

    — Deborah, (GB), Booking.com, 02 авг 2017

  • Natalie provides a fantastic experience: the main house and courtyard is delightful, and the purpose built cottages are beautiful, and have all amenities you might want for a little stay. There is also a quiet garden out back for coffee and views of the hills. Natalie provided us with a fantastic breakfast in the morning, at a time of our choice, and was super generous by giving us a lift to and from the wedding we were attending. Highly recommend this AirBnB property.

    — Florence & Alex, AirBnB, 01 авг 2017

  • Beautiful Cottage and beautiful owners.
    We had a lovely stay at the stunning Handywater Cottage. Natalie and Ray, thank you for making my husband and i feel so welcome. You looked after us so well and we left feeling truly pampered. Breakfast was delicious too... hope to stay with you soon.

    — Nisha Kumar-Saujani, (GB), Booking.com, 23 июл 2017

  • Delightful experience. Will definitely be back!
    Natalie and Ray were "off the charts" in terms of customer service. Both are extremely friendly and accommodating. Not only did they drive me to my meeting in the morning, they also offered to have me join them for dinner at a local pub. Was so much fun! Natalie's breakfast was excellent - she definitely knows how to make proper eggs - and her fried toast is delicious - Gordon Ramsey would be proud!

    — Terri, (US), Booking.com, 20 июл 2017

  • Excellent company, great place to stay.
    Wonderful 500 year old house with a lot of character. Breakfast was superb and owners were extremely friendly.
    Difficult to find, despite being right next to the pub.

    — Sybil, (GB), Booking.com, 19 июл 2017

  • The most wonderful place to stay.
    The hosts could not have done enough for us. The bed was amazing and the facilities were impeccable. Breakfast far exceeded any I have had in any hotel or B & B. Handywater Cottage is the best place in which I have stayed and I would recommend it thoroughly.
    I have no complaints at all.

    — Julia, (GB), Booking.com, 18 июл 2017

  • A gorgeous surprise.
    A stunning B & B with delightful hosts. Set in picturesque countryside, this accommodation hits all the marks. We spend one warm comfortable night en route to Kent. Our room was stunning with lovely crisp linen, a cosy bed and a filling breakfast, particularly Natalie's special toast. Natalie and Ray clearly enjoy hosting guests and we enjoyed their lively conversation. Highly recommended.

    — Danmoff Perth, Australia, TripAdvisor, 17 июл 2017

    — Rod, (GB), Booking.com, 04 июл 2017

  • What a great couple to have as hosts. Both Ray and Natalie were great hosts and very generous. They made us feel very welcomed and couldn't really do enough. They gave us many times a lift to Henley and booked a lovely meal to the pub next door. As far as I'm concerned this is the place for us to stay when we visit Henley. Lovely welcoming home and the facilities were just as advertised. Nothing was missing. A great experience....

    — Dionysis K, AirBnB, 04 июл 2017

  • “Warmest welcome, ice-cold fizz!”
    Stayed here for one night and had the most amazing time. Natalie and Ray were so welcoming from the moment I arrived, taking me into their home and offering a glass or two of much needed fizz!

    A very genuine couple, nothing was too much trouble and they even let me leave my car there whilst I went off the following day.

    Everything was well appointed in the room to a very high standard. Very clean and great attention to detail. Lots of choice for breakfast and very tasty too.

    In all a superb little haven within walking distance of Henley.

The accommodation is superb, and Natalie's breakfasts are legendary. In a beautiful area, right next to the pub....what else could you need? Wonderful hosts, just one thing though......Ray's jokes are terrible , but I think we gave as good as we got. Hope to return, really good base to explore the area. Fantastic. Pat.

  • Only stayed at the Handywater cottage for a night, but our stay was absolutely fantastic. Ray and Natalie are just so lovely and helpful, they were even so kind to give us a lift to the town centre and picked us up late in the evening too. Breakfast was just delicious and bed very comfortable. Would definitely stay again if in the area. Great hospitality!

  • Handywater heaven.
    Ray and Natalie were congenial hosts and nothing was too much trouble. Immaculate and beautiful property in lovely country location with chickens providing the eggs for a generous breakfast. An excellent restaurant next door was the icing on the cake - no need to travel for a Michelin star quality dinner at a reasonable price.
    Rooms could have been a bit bigger - hard to fit two suitcases. This didn't really detract from the lovely time though.

    — Riggsy, (GB), Booking.com, 28 май 2017

  • Beautiful. We found this wonderful place to stay by chance. I wish I could keep this a secret but it wouldn't be fair. What a beautiful setting only a mile or so from Henley. The accommodation is 5 star. The decor and the bathroom in the cottage is exquisite. What value for money. Our hosts, Natalie and Raymond were wonderful and charming, oh and the breakfast was magnificent. Truthfully I did not want to leave. When you consider what the prices are in the hotels nearby this wonderful accommodation is an absolute bargain. We will be returning when we have more time to relax. Thank you Natalie and Raymond and I hope you had a wonderful birthday Natalie. Hopefully we will see you again soon!

    — Janet, Booking.com, 11 май 2017

  • Perfect.
    We couldn't believe our luck with Handywater Cottage. We thought we had hit the jackpot. We would far rather stay in this kind of accommodation than a hotel and I would rate this far higher than a 5* hotel. You would never get such personal attention and Natalie and Ray certainly gave us that in oodles. The standard of the facilities is fantastic and the breakfast top notch. It is situated in glorious countryside and very handy for Henley. A must for anyone wanting to experience a warm, welcoming experience.

    My husband and I absolutely loved everything about our stay. The room was beautifully decorated, the beds were very comfortable the view was beautiful, breakfast was excellent and our hosts could not have been more welcoming.
    We couldn't have enjoyed our stay more or received more of a welcome if we had booked into a five star hotel. I would recommend Handywater Cottage to anyone.

    — Tracy, Booking.com, 02 май 2017

  • Fantastic find.
    Handywater cottage was like a home from home. Newly built everything was clean and fresh. The bed was so comfy. We had the best nights sleep in peaceful surroundings. My husband and I had the Wisteria cottage which had a patio overlooking a small orchard, great place to sit and have a coffee in the morning while nature wakes up around you. Full English or continental breakfast anything you wish for and a restaraunt just next door that serves award winning food for a cosy evening meal Hosts Natalie and Raymond were fantastic and could not do enough for us. We didn't want to go home and are looking forward to going back.

  • Found a little piece of heaven.
    We found Handywater by pure chance and it was as though it was meant to be. It was the last night of our travels and we wished we had found it earlier as we did not really want to go home. We were in Wisteria room which has a patio overlooking a small orchard. It was so peaceful and very clean. We had the best nights sleep with hypoallergenic bedding and a Hypnos mattress. I have a bad back and rarely get a good nights sleep, Well I was out cold. We were greeted with a glass of wine and a chat about the area Natalie and Raymond really do take care of their guests nothing was too much for this wonderful couple Natalie prepares a full English breakfast with anything you could wish for. If you prefer a lighter breakfast there are also cereals, croissants, juices and fruit. Next door is a restaurant which serves award winning food and we had a lovely evening meal. We will be going back and have already planned our next trip.

    — William & Joy, Booking.com, 26 апр 2017

    — Charlotte McKenna, AirBnB, 23 апр 2017

  • From the moment we arrived at Natalie and Ray's home we were made to feel very welcome. We even had our wedding photos taken in their garden! After pulling into their drive from a long afternoon spent setting up our wedding venue, they invited us straight into their garden for a much-needed glass of prosecco and a chat. The room was comfortable and stylish, and had lovely views over the countryside. Natalie's breakfasts were a highlight of our stay! She provided us with an incredible spread, with everything from fresh berries to a full English. We couldn't recommend this AirBnB enough!

    — Jenny & Tom, AirBnB, 16 апр 2017

  • “Perfect in every way!”
    We needed somewhere to stay near Henley for a family occasion and were lucky enough to choose this exceptional B & B. Our hosts Ray and Natalie could not have been more helpful and kind. The breakfast was ample and delicious and nothing was too much trouble. We cannot recommend this place too highly and we will certainly be staying there again next time we are visiting family.

    — Sheila & Bob, TripAdvisor, 14 янв 2017

  • If you're looking for something which is extra special, then look no further! Natalie and Ray's love of 5 star travelling means you get the same treatment as their guest! From the beautiful character cottage, to the warmest of welcomes, and the delicious breakfast, we will definitely stay again.

  • We loved staying with Natalie and Ray! We stayed for one night and were attending a wedding nearby. From the moment we drove up they made us feel at home. They welcomed us with a hot cup of tea and then helped us to book a table next door for an amazing lunch! The two rooms were lovely and there is a separate bathroom for guests. They provided everything you could need: towels, shampoo, conditioner and an amazing atmosphere. The great stay ended with our breakfast (which was more like a feast!) in the morning before we left. We would definitely stay with Natalie and Ray again if I had any reason to be in the area!

  • We had a wonderful time at Natalie and Raymond’s. They are the most welcoming and attentive guests. The cottage is full of character and charm, in a picturesque countryside and very close to the lovely Henley-on-Thames. Our rooms were perfect - comfortable, very clean, and quiet. And you couldn’t dream of a better breakfast the following morning, so well prepared by Nathalie, and served in the lovely dinning room. The nearby restaurant is also great, super food, and atmosphere, and so convenient to just walk there. We had a great stay and can only warmly recommend it.

  • “Simply stunning, a beautiful home and wonderful hosts”
    We can't thank Natalie and Raymond enough for such warm and welcoming hospitality in their exquisite home. Set in stunning surroundings just a few miles from Henley, the perfect location to explore such a beautiful and diverse area. The rooms we enjoyed were peaceful and beautifully presented, and a delicious home cooked breakfast certainly set us all up for the day. We'd more than recommend Handywater Cottage to anyone looking for a 5 star weekend with all the trimmings enjoyed in the company of two genuinely thoughtful & lovely hosts. We hope to be back soon!

  • The cottage is located in a beautiful area just outside Henley on Thames. The views all around are stunning and there is a very nice restaurant next door. The room was clean and tidy and the bed very comfy. The breakfast was out of this world! But none of this compared to the incredible hospitality shown by Natalie and Ray. I have never felt so at home and comfortable when staying in a BnB. They certainly go the extra mile to make their guests feel at home.

  • Natalie and Ray were absolutely delightful hosts. Their home is simply spectacular, meticulously clean and maintained, and warm and comfortable. They went out of their way to welcome us in their home, and share their appreciation and knowledge of Henley and the countryside. Not only were they gracious and generous hosts (and wonderful cooks) they are now wonderful friends. Thank you Natalie and Ray !!!
