Riverbank

Riverbank is a six-bedroom apartment in Staines that sleeps 11 across its full extent. The building is yours alone when you book it—no shared guests or communal spaces. One well-behaved pet stays free of charge. The whole place comes furnished and fitted with the essentials covered: Wi-Fi, electricity, bed linen and towels are all included, so you only need to arrive with your bags.

The layout spreads across multiple floors with four bathrooms to serve the bedrooms, so mornings needn't be a scramble. There are two separate kitchens, which matters when you're catering for a group; you can split the cooking, or one family can prepare meals independently from another. Wood-burning stoves dot the property for warmth and atmosphere. French doors open onto outdoor space where you can sit out. The building doesn't permit smoking indoors. Arrival is after 3pm; departure before 10am. A pub sits within a mile if you'd rather eat out one evening. This works well for extended families, groups of friends taking a long weekend, or anyone needing proper space and facilities for more than a handful of people.
