Reading regularly features in the top 10 of the best British high streets in the UK - which is often a surprise to new visitors. The Oracle shopping complex has over 90 shops including House of Fraser, John Lewis, Debenhams and Marks and Spencer and some splendid eateries on the riverside, providing a happy few hours of retail heaven, plus there is a host of smaller boutiques and specialists nestled in the backstreets and alleyways.
A happy day spent browsing before a stroll through the gardens back to the hotel is a lovely way to spend time in Reading.
