Solo & Female Travellers

You work hard all week in central London; you deserve a break where the air is fresh, the river glistens and every detail is taken care of. The Fox at Hurley — with the Hurley Village Café next door — is your sanctuary: a lovingly restored boutique bed and breakfast in the quiet Thames-side village of Hurley. Whether you’re travelling solo, enjoying a micro-break, or planning a workcation, you’ll feel genuinely looked after from the moment you arrive.

 

 

Stress-free journey from London

 

Getting here is simple. Hop on the Elizabeth Line at Paddington and arrive at Maidenhead in as little as 18 minutes (typical journeys around 38 minutes). From Maidenhead Station it’s a short 7 km taxi ride to our door. Prefer to drive? We offer free on-site parking and EV charging points, so in under an hour you can swap traffic and concrete for rolling fields, waterside strolls and deep comfort.

 

 

A secure, small-scale stay where you’re never just a number

 

Travelling alone shouldn’t mean compromising on comfort or peace of mind. Our secure property, handful of rooms and welcoming hosts create a calm, personal environment where you’ll never feel lost in the crowd. The café lounge offers a cosy home-from-home to unwind with a book, message friends, or plan tomorrow’s walk.

 

 

Thoughtful comforts that feel like home

 

Our Georgian-style property blends period character with modern luxury: crisp Egyptian cotton linens, king-sized beds, and scrumptious breakfasts with fresh artisan bread and pastries. Barista-quality coffee and the relaxed atmosphere of the Hurley Village Café make it easy to settle in, exhale, and truly switch off.
