The house was built in 1609 by the grandfather of Queen Anne and has been restored in a contemporary fashion providing the luxury and modern amenities of an upmarket country hotel with all the privacy of your own home.

The Central Southern England / Berkshire region

Berkshire is a county that encompasses both the rural and the urban. Easily accessible from London yet dominated by farmland, Berkshire provides an ideal base for the holiday maker looking to have the best of a rural setting but access to the attractions of the city.

The Reading / Pangbourne area

Purley Hall is centrally located between London, Oxford and Bath acting as the perfect gateway to the historical sights of these 3 key British cities. The historic Windsor Castle is close by as is Legoland for the children.

Set in beautiful parkland on the edge of woodland, Purley Hall is an ideal base for walks through the Berkshire countryside and along the stretch of the Thames immortalised by Jerome K. Jermone in "Three Men in a Boat" and Kenneth Graham's "Wind in the Willows". Henley-on-Thames and Dorney Rowing Lake are short drives away for rowing enthusiasts.
