The Clubhouse

A building in the river

Without doubt the most striking of our two venues, it appears to be a two storey building sitting on stilts in the middle of the river. Accessible by bridge (or boat), with floor to ceiling windows, the panoramic views are something to behold.

The Clubhouse, uniquely in London, is a building situated on the Thames. Guests can walk across the short bridge or arrive by boat on the private pontoon.

Once inside, the first thing you will notice is the stunning panoramic views of the river and some of London's iconic landmarks. The O2 and cable car, the Thames Barrier and the fantastic city vista give guests the feeling that they are in the heart of modern London.

Concertina doors and a completely surrounding balcony mean that guests can enjoy the river views to their hearts' content.

Boating flags, nautical treasures and memorabilia adorn the ceiling and walls, giving the hall a definite yachting theme and a breathtaking backdrop for your event.

The Clubhouse has a main plenary area along with a breakout space at the back of the room, with a balcony overlooking the river and London skyline.
