The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped with appliances to satisfy all cooking enthusiasts.
A large 10 seater cherry wood table offers ample space for food preparation, socialising and eating. The River House is self-catering, but for those reluctant to spend time in the kitchen, we offer the possibility of requesting the services of a local culinary chef who will prepare a scrumptious dinner every night for you and your guests. Alternatively, pre-order lunches or dinners from our catering partners who offer a delivery service. Guests can also request a welcome hamper, picnic hampers or packed lunches.
