Welcome
The Riverside is a beautifully appointed Georgian country house situated in Ashford in the Water in the heart of The Peak District National Park in what has to be some of the most breathtaking scenery in England.
Ideally positioned for many interesting walks and visits to grand stately homes and country estates such as Chatsworth and Haddon Hall. Every day can offer something different to do or place to discover.
Alternatively simply relax with a good book by roaring log fires in one of our comfortable lounges, and enjoy the simple pleasures of rest and relaxation where good service and attention to detail is the order of the day.

Restaurant
The Riverside Room Restaurant has a choice of three completely different styles of room to dine in. Each with fabulous antiques, rich fabrics and interesting design features to match your mood.
Head chef, John Whelan, has compiled exquisite menus using only the finest produce obtained locally and from across Europe and has an enviable reputation for creative cuisine.
A real passion for wine is clearly evident with over 200 bottles in the current cellar which is growing steadily each year as we discover more wines. In addition many rare and delicate wines are laid down awaiting discovery. The restaurant is ideal for intimate private dining, family gatherings and corporate events.
Whatever the occasion you can always be assured of good food, fine wine, and a genuinely warm attentive service.

Bedrooms
All the bedrooms at the Riverside are completely individual in style, design and function. Many enjoy exceptional architectural features such as beams and exposed roof structures which all too often are changed or hidden in many period properties.
The comfortable arm chairs in the bedrooms sit by windows overlooking the varied gardens as the river Wye sleepily meanders gently by with the only interruption being the occasional duck splash landing in the river. Garden rooms with their own private patios are always popular where you can sit and sip a chilled Pimms or blush wine on a warm summer evening with your own private recliners and parasols. Whatever the reason for your visit, be it business or pleasure, there are a variety of bedrooms to suite every taste.
Where peace, tranquillity and total comfort will leave you refreshed and ready to tackle the hectic pace of today's lifestyle once again.

Business and Boardrooms
The Riverside has two meeting rooms available for boardroom and business meetings, both of which enjoy large amounts of natural sunlight and are exceptionally quiet.
A wide selection of support facilities are available if required. Ranging from transport, secretarial services and an ever expanding selection of projectors and presentation displays to suit each meetings requirement. All meeting rooms are accessible from lounge areas and have a high level of quality and comfort in beautiful furniture and soft furnishings.
The picturesque gardens that surround the hotel add a level of peace and tranquillity that is essential in relaxing busy business clients and creating an environment that is suited to obtaining results. The hotel has ample secure parking and is ideally suited for product launches and outdoor events that add a healthy outdoor facility to any corporate requirement.

Weddings
The Riverside is a rare venue indeed for the most important day of your life.
