Kings Cottage is an original timber framed house dating from the 16th century with more recent additions such as the facade being updated in the 18th century Georgian period. Until recently, the house was used as an office but it has now been sympathetically restored to being a residential property with new bathroom, kitchen, heating system, etc. The property benefits from the latest fire safety and carbon monoxide sensor equipment and has been fully furnished to a very high standard.

I am a 60 something, retired executive who worked for 40 years in the local IT software business. I am now focussing on property development and management and Kings Cottage is our second venture into luxury serviced properties.

Wokingham is an ideal base for exploring the beautiful Thames Valley and is close to Sonning (famous for George Clooney) and towns such as Henley, Marlow and Oxford. Historic locations including Stonehenge, Bath, Wells and Glastonbury are within easy driving distance as are day trips to the New Forest and Bournemouth. Royal Ascot is only three stops away on the rail line to London and other events such as Henley and Wimbledon can be reached easily from Wokingham by rail. Bath, Bristol and Oxford are easily accessible by train from Reading (1 stop from Wokingham) as are places further afield including Cornwall, the Midlands, Lake District and Scotland. Wokingham is 25 miles from Heathrow (30 mins by taxi) and is also on the railway line from Gatwick Airport to Reading so ideally located for guests arriving by air. It is also possible to take the RailAir link from Heathrow to Reading station and then a short train ride to Wokingham (first stop on the Gatwick line).
