The River Rooms

Three rooms, hired as one

A stand-alone event venue with large windows, two rooms and a large outdoor decking. Guests enter onto the decking, which overlooks the river and the boatyard and is a great place to have your reception drinks in the afternoon sun.

The River Rooms is our dedicated event venue made up of three adjoining spaces: the main hall, the reception hall and the outdoor decking. The rooms are hired as one and allow your day to flow seamlessly from one element to the next.

The sun terrace allows guests to enjoy the weather when the sun decides to shine, and can host barbecues and hog roasts if you want to mix up the catering a little. You can also put up a marquee if you don't want to gamble on the British weather.

The lounge bar gives everyone a place to relax and enjoy a drink whilst they mingle with all the guests.

Our main hall doubles up as our ceremony room. With its floor to ceiling windows the venue is light and bright and provides fantastic river views. It is suitable for dining for up to 100 guests.

The River Rooms is a purpose-built event space with a licence to host ceremonies. The outside decking, raised from the boatyard, gives great views of the Thames and allows outdoor catering.
