Hotel description
Set within an old corn mill with a working waterwheel, this traditional hotel enjoys a tranquil setting on an island between the historically significant Abbey Ruins and the banks of the Thames.
Overlooking the River Thames, The Upper Reaches is an ideal choice for a relaxing break in the historic county of Oxfordshire, with the quaint village of Dorchester, Henley and Marlow all nearby.
For shoppers, Oxford, Reading, Bicester Retail village and Abingdon are just a short drive away through the beautiful countryside.
With its idyllic water-front setting and spectacular views, the Upper Reaches Hotel is well integrated into the life of the river, and as such can offer mooring for up to 6 boats.
The hotel restaurant serves delicious food for lunch and dinner, but guests should book in advance.

Excellent hotel and staff. Great dinner and breakfast (black pud too thin and overcooked)
Wc stained "round the bend" and needs bleach and a scrub.
