Set 21 km from LaplandUK, 27 km from Newbury Racecourse and 29 km from Legoland Windsor, Coco’s Homestay - Sidmouth offers accommodation situated in Reading. The property is located 31 km from Dorney Lake, 31 km from Cliveden House and 33 km from Windsor Castle. The homestay features family rooms.

Bathroom and rooms had just been renovated, very clean and comfortable. Bed extremely comfy, but only big enough for one person in my opinion. Kitchen a little bit dated, but fully equipped, working fridge, plenty of coffee and milk. Only 13 min walk from rail station.

    Lovely to stay in someone’s home, Sonia was a great host even letting me chat to her and say hello to the cat! Wish I could have stayed the 2 nights as I had originally planned but it ended up only being the one due to a work event! The room was cosy & cute with services nearby & there were services in the kitchen I could use as well. This is definitely the best home stay b&b I’ve stayed at! Much better than a travelodge!!
