A colourful, comfortable family home in Newbury – a true home from home

Our modern, well-decorated house is full of warmth, personality, and colour — a real family home that’s comfortable, inviting, and carefully looked after.

We share our time between England and France, so while this is a lived-in home, it’s always professionally cleaned when we leave, ready for guests. Because it’s a house that’s truly lived in, it’s fully kitted out — not just with the basics, but with everything a family might need. It’s ideal if you’re looking for a warm, practical base, not just a minimalist holiday rental.

That said, if you’re after a polished, hotel-like experience, this may not be the right fit. But if you want a cosy, lived-in home with character and comfort — this is it.

The house is in a quiet residential area near the racecourse, within walking distance of Newbury town centre, a few minutes' drive from the M4, and just 50 minutes from Heathrow Airport.About pets:Pets allowed: limit 1 total.About checkOut:Check out before 12:00 PM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About checkIn:Check in after 4:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 18.About events:No events allowed.
