CATERING
River House offers fine dining ‘at home’. We have both traditional English and modern Italian chefs working with us. Everything is prepared for you on our fabulous range cooker/oven. Please request sample menus. We can also prepare something simple if you are arriving late at night.
Small weddings and anniversaries can be accommodated in an elegant marquee on the terrace overlooking the river for up to 60 diners. Parties may chose catering options from a formal
3-course set dinner, less informal gourmet hamburgers or tapas prepared by a Spanish chef for a drinks party.
A spectacular Indian fire pit, which is set on the terrace overlooking the lawns, is available for al fresco dining and has a delightful ambience, especially on a summers’ night.
ACTIVITIES
Enjoy private fishing, in season, along the river banks at River House. There are also a variety of garden games including clock golf and croquet - relax in the bubbling hot tub afterwards.
Clay pigeon shooting near Westwood, horse riding in the pretty village of Wellow and bicycle/canal barge hire on the Kennet & Avon Canal at Dundas Aqueduct are also available nearby. Please ask for details.
Longleat House and Safari Park, the medieval weaving town of Bradford on Avon, the ancient City of Wells and several important National Trust properties, including Lacock Abbey, are within easy driving distance.
