<p>Fashionably late to the party, but Soho House has launched a pop up in Windsor. The Summer River House at Oakley Court is open to Soho House members only. To gain access to the cool riverside seating areas, day beds and tented restaurant you&#8217;ll need to hunt down a card-carrying fashionable friend – new memberships are currently frozen with a 12-month waiting list. By all accounts The Summer River House has been such a success it could become a permanent fixture. If you&#8217;re not a member, or no anyone who is, you&#8217;ll have to make do gawping across the velvet rope. That said, Oakley Court is pretty stylish hangout in its own right. </p>
