A very genteel town in the far southeast of the county, Henley is synonymous with the regatta that makes a splash in the social calendar at the turn of July.
Thousands of spectators crowd the grassy banks for rowing events entered by both seasoned Olympians and crews new to competitive rowing.
At other times you can simply bask in Henley’s refined character and go for strolls in the meadows and wooden Chiltern hillsides that climb up from the river.
