We would like to thank Natalie and Ray for creating a very pleasant, peaceful, and well appointed set of cottages. The main 1600s barn that you have turned into a delightful home for yourselves and the breakfast room is certainly amazingly to see, especially after having to lower the floors so people could stand up inside. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay, found the garden beautiful to walk in, and enjoyed our conversations with you Natalie and the other guests. The cottages are very close to Henley and to Hambleden, both of which we were able to visit.

A superb stay in lovely surroundings. Immaculate and comfortable accommodation in a spacious room. The breakfast was delicious and generous and the lovely host could not have been more helpful. All in all we could not have asked for more. Thank you

This is a beautifully kept b&b. It’s a lovely location and the host Natalie thinks about every level of detail. Beautiful grounds, an amazing breakfast, car charging, comfortable bedrooms and a lovely pub/restaurant next door. All within easy reach of Henley. Thanks Natalie!

Handywater Cottages is a very special B&B with the most wonderful hosts. We have stayed several times and in our opinion it cannot be bettered. The cottage (Wisteria) is spotless, comfortable and has the additional patio and relaxing chairs/loungers to relax and have a nice drink. The outlook is stunning and the gardens pretty. Some of the fish in the pond are huge! If you want a special stay this is the place for it! Breakfast is very good and Natalie tries hard to ensure yours is private from other guests. Highly recommeded.

My partner and I have been visiting Handywater Cottages for several years now. Natalie and Ray provide the most welcoming and superb accommodation with delicious breakfasts. Ideally located only a short drive from Henley town centre and River Thames. This is a very hard act to follow!

My husband and I spent 2 nights at Handywater and it was so convenient to take in a trip on the river at Henley. Natalie and Ray are perfect hosts and our room was lovely. The garden was delightful to sit in and watch the huge fish swimming in the pond. Natalie's breakfast was scrumptious with plenty of choice.

Just back from a lovely 4 night stay at the Handywater B & B. The accommodation is spotless, has all the facilities you need and as we stayed in Wisteria, we had access to a patio, which we enjoyed as the weather we had was fantastic. Well located for Henley and local facilities (pub next door but we did not visit). Garden is lovely, views great and food excellent. The best thing for us was the hosts. You could not get a more helpful and friendly couple than Natalie and Ray. Happy to advise on where to eat/ visit locally and also can give you lifts (when they are available) if needed. They just made the whole stay such as pleasant experience. We will be back! Highly recommended!
