The Garden Cabin, hotel in Reading

Boasting garden views, The Garden Cabin offers accommodation with a garden and a patio, around 14 km from LaplandUK. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi.

Having traveled extensively with our dogs the Garden Cabin is without doubt the best accommodation we have used. The cabin is modern, large enough to put dog beds down with out tripping over them and very private. The facility's and attention to detail is what makes the Garden Cabin stand out from the rest, on arrival there is milk, tea bags and biscuits to get you in. The kitchen is fully equipped although we didn't cook as the selection of local pubs was to tempting. Whether washing up or washing clothes, tablets were providing. The bed was very comfortable and the bedding and towels were excellent quality. The local Inn was only 100 meters away and there are dog walks in every direction, everything felt easy, a very relaxing stay. Thank you, we will definitely book again next time we are visiting family.

    this was an ‘emergency’ stay on 25th Dec at 23:00 due to my transport plans failing, it was the perfect solution - the owner picked up the phone quickly even at this time of night, sent me the room code in minutes and was very accommodating and nice, making sure i got all i needed for such unplanned stop. the location is ideal right next to station but very quiet - i had a good sleep. the room was warm and very clean. pleasant place overall. basic but great value for money, shower was hot and good pressure. basic cafe and tea options

    Just what I needed- travelled to reading for the music fest and the location is literally 5min away from the festival bus/train station. Read reviews about the area being potentially noisy at night but nope everything’s fine, had a good rest. Friendly staff (lost my keycard but they just replaced it with no problem at all) and affordable price. Room was spotless too. Great stay!
