Milestone Centre - Caversham Park Village Association Squash Courts

The Milestone Centre sits within Caversham Park Village, a few miles south of Henley-on-Thames, and serves as the hub for the area's squash courts. If you're a serious player, this is worth knowing about - it's a proper functioning facility where locals actually compete rather than a tourist attraction masquerading as one. The courts themselves are standard indoor squash venues, the kind where you book a slot, pay your fee, and get on with it. There's nothing fancy here, which is rather the point.

This is really only for people who play squash or want to learn. Casual visitors won't find much to do, and kids who aren't interested in the sport will be bored within minutes. If you're staying at Swiss Farm or Embers Camping nearby and you're a player, though, having a decent court within striking distance makes a proper difference to your break.

Details on membership, visitor rates, and booking procedures aren't immediately obvious from the outside, so ringing ahead is essential before you pitch up. The facility works best as part of a longer Henley stay rather than a standalone outing. The town itself - with the Thames towpath walks and riverside pubs - provides the real holiday appeal; the Milestone Centre is just a bonus if your game happens to need a court.
