Escape to the country with us - Near Henley on Thames...
Welcome to Sandhurst House. 2024 will be our sixth season. We're delighted our former guests have really enjoyed their stays with us.
It's the perfect base as you explore the quintessentially English countryside that surrounds the house.
We would like to invite you to come and stay with us.
The house is just 5 miles outside Henley on Thames, six miles to Wallingford, 20 miles to Oxford, 10 miles to Reading and only 40 miles to London.
About Sandhurst House:
A spacious detached home set in the heart of the historic village of Nettlebed in between Henley on Thames and Wallingford.
Brand new, it comfortably sleeps 8 people, has space for entertaining and relaxing outside when the sun shines; inside it's cozy and warm for a winters night.
Our guests tell us that they love the space, the peace and quiet and how relaxed and at home they feel. A perfect escape from town, whilst still having lots to explore and do nearby; and only an hour outside London.
Set in the heart of the village in the stunning Chilterns AONB.
The House:
Sandhurst House is a spacious and comfortable house that's bright and spacious.
The kitchen is fully equipped, is fully appointed and has an American fridge . The dining table comfortably seats 8 and has a lovely view of the garden through the bi fold doors.
The sitting room has a vaulted ceiling and lots of light with comfortable sofas and large smart TV. There is Vodafone Wi-Fi, Amazon Prime and Netflix.
There are 4 bedrooms. The master and bedroom two have king size beds, bedroom 3 and 4 have double beds.
Upstairs there is a family bathroom with rain shower. On the ground floor is a separate shower room.
The garden is laid to lawn with a large patio area. There's an electric BBQ for outdoor cooking.
There's parking for two cars on the driveway at the front of the house and no road parking restrictions.
Welcome Pack:
To help you settle in there is tea, coffee, milk, bottle of prosecco and some beer in the fridge. The kitchen is equipped with condiments and olive oil.
As your host, I have lived in the area for over 25 years and have a pretty good local knowledge. It’ll be a pleasure to share that with you as you plan your stay.
Look forward to meeting you.

About the host
Hosted by Alan Elston
I love living at Corner House, it's a very happy home for me and is the place I feel comfortable. Due to my work as an actor, presenter and property developer I'm fortunate to be able to travel. Wherever I have been in the world, this is still the place I want to come back to.
Why they chose this property
Buying Corner House coming on 15 years ago, I really like the sense of space. In the summer I love to have all the windows and doors open and allow the breeze to roll through. The lounge and family room is great for entertaining, the bedrooms are a good size and I feel really at home here.
In the summer the garden is great for enjoying the sun, in the winter the wood burning stove makes it very cosy and warm inside. It's very comfortable and welcoming; this is the place I love to come home to.

What makes this property unique
The first time I came to Henley some 27 years ago, I just knew I wanted to live here. It's a quintessentially English town in the home counties; with a real sense of the summer season. As an added bonus I can get to London in just over an hour on my motorbike. This is a beautiful part of the world, it has so much to offer.
The countryside is awesome for mountain biking and sport, with a lake nearby for wake, surf and paddle boarding. To me, we are in the most beautiful place; whilst being close enough to the motorway network, airports and London.
