The Space:
A calm Caversham base with free parking, a 10 minute walk to the station. Ideal for a working week or a soft landing between homes.
Welcome to a bright studio flat in Caversham, the leafy side of Reading just over the river. Compact, well equipped, and easy to settle into.
You know how a short stay usually goes.
❌ A cramped room with nowhere to cook
❌ Parking that costs a fortune or means circling the block
❌ WiFi that drops mid call
❌ Nowhere near the station or the shops
❌ Hosts who go quiet after check in
❌ Photos that flatter a tired place
None of that here.
This is a self contained studio, cleaned by professionals before every stay. Fresh linen, fresh towels, and the basics stocked so you can settle straight in.
🅿️ Free parking on site
Park right at the flat, free, with no permits and no meters. One less thing to sort after a long day or a long drive.
🛏 Rest and reset
A comfortable double, plus a sofa bed, so the flat sleeps up to 3.
Room darkening blinds for proper sleep, central heating you control, and fans for warmer months.
🍳 A proper little kitchen
Small but sorted: oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, toaster, blender, kettle, and a coffee maker.
Cook a real meal and skip the takeaways. There is a dining table to sit at, and wine glasses for the evening.
📶 Set up for work
Fast WiFi and a dedicated workspace. Take the call from the desk, not perched on the bed. Good for remote work, timesheets, or catching up after site.
🧺 Ready for a weekly stay
Washing machine and dryer, plus an iron, drying rack, and clothes storage. Wash work gear midweek, or keep on top of laundry over a longer stay. Pack light.
🚶 Right by the river
The Thames and the riverside path are a couple of minutes away, and Caversham centre with its cafes, pubs and shops is a short walk. A calm spot to come home to.
🔑 Easy arrival
Self check in by lockbox, so an early start or a late arrival is no problem. Private entrance, and you can drop your bags off early if you need to.

The Neighborhood:
Neighbourhood – Caversham, Reading
Caversham is a charming suburb just north of Reading town centre, across the River Thames. It offers a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere while still being only a short walk into central Reading.
Guests love Caversham for its riverside walks, Caversham Court Gardens, and plenty of green spaces. The area has a real village feel with independent shops, cafés, pubs, and community events, yet all the conveniences of a modern town are close by.
It’s also very family-friendly, with good schools and a safe, welcoming community. Caversham Heights offers elevated views over the Thames, while Lower Caversham is perfect for riverside strolls.
Transport is simple — Reading station is just across the river with fast connections to London and beyond, and local bus routes serve the area well.

Great location, hosts respond really quickly to queries, really comfortable bed and overall a well furnished apartment. One oven didn’t work but there was two so no hassle.
