It’s true – happily ever after really does start at Hurley House Hotel – a multi-award-winning independent boutique hotel nestled in an idyllic countryside village near Henley-on-Thames. Recognised as the “Best Small and Exclusive Property in the UK” by the 2025 Condé Nast Johansen’s Awards for Excellence, there’s quite frankly no suaver setting to celebrate your special day.

Take your pick of the oodles of gorgeous spaces on offer. There’s the main house which exudes understated elegance and laid-back luxury, complemented by beautifully designed terraces. Outside in the immaculately landscaped gardens, check out the Garden Pavilion—an airy, light-filled space that transforms into a magical setting by night, complete with thousands of twinkling lights. There’s also the intimate private function room for smaller celebrations too.

Event spaces can cater up to 160 seated guests, and you can even have the whole run of the place by hiring the hotel for exclusive use. That means all 10 beautiful bedrooms, restaurant, terraces and staff at your disposal. No matter what you have in mind, the venue is a complete blank space, able to be personalised down to the finest of details.

But it’s the level of professionalism here that sets the venue apart from the rest. Staff really know what they are doing, working with the very best caterers and suppliers, and going above and beyond to ensure your wedding is as seamless as it is unforgettable.

Combining rural charm with accessibility, Hurley House Hotel is ideally situated just a stone’s throw from London and within easy reach of Reading, Maidenhead, and Marlow. Convenient parking is just outside for up to 65 cars, including four electric charging stations.
