"The River House is an exceptional holiday property with so much to offer."
The house is spacious and comfortable with lots of interesting artefacts. The garden and surrounds with the river running through was very well maintained and great for spotting wildlife. One of us was thrilled to glimpse a kingfisher! The owner is keen that staying at The River House should be a perfect experience for guests. I think they've done a pretty fine job. We shall have wonderful memories.

"What an amazing property and the most amazing host, thank you so so much, and we will return soon ."

"It was the perfect stay, luxury all the way."
It was a privilege to enjoy this beautiful home, with perfect views over the river Avon. Wildlife on your doorstep,otters,herons, ducks,swans, deer.

"This is the third year that three generations of the family have stayed at the fantastic venue."
The attention to detail is second to none and Katherine goes to great lengths to make sure all her guests are comfortable and catered for. It's the ideal place for a general chill out holiday but is also close to many interesting places to visit. We hope to return in 2026 to enjoy yet another relaxing time at The River House. Angela and family.

"Thank you so much for the fabulous stay at the River House- sorry we forgot to fill in the visitors book!"
We were so impressed with the house and facilities- what a beautiful garden and tranquil space. We all really appreciated the outdoor living spaces, the BBQ and the comfy beds. The River House had everything we needed to have a relaxing break and it was lovely to feel so welcomed by Katherine through texts- I know if we had any issues it would be quickly dealt with- but luckily our stay was a smooth one.

A magical retreat.

"Beautiful garden by the river."
The veranda was perfect to listen to the water and watch the wildlife. We even saw an otter! The house was very comfortable with a huge selection of books. The kitchen had everything that we required and more.

"Riverhouse is fantastic and we hope to return soon."
Book it, it is the best quality holiday accommodation I have ever stayed in. The welcome basket was huge with tea, coffee, coffee pods, sugar, milk, biscuits and prosecco. Mini shower gel, shampoo and conditioner were provided and big fluff towels. It was accessible for my elderly parents and my Mum who has dementia even settled into the veranda and enjoyed the ever-changing wildlife. The private gardens are huge and cover both sides of the river. Geese, goslings, herons, ducks, ducklings, swans and cygnets came daily. We saw yellow wagtails and a Chinese goose who was very chatty. I even saw a deer in the garden early one morning. The ensuite to the twin room has a walk-in shower which was easy to access for my parents. The owner Katherine, is friendly, patient and replied promptly when I had a couple of questions. The gas BBQ was great with quality tools provided to use with it. We are all missing the veranda and views from the bedrooms (the twin room is at the back with no view or immediate access to the river - safe for children). Two of the king-size beds have electric blankets available on them. The bedding is soft and fluffy. The whole house is high quality with plenty of glasses, plates etc. Due to my Mum's dementia needs I cooked all week and everything I needed was available in the kitchen. There are 3 fridges in the accommodation so there's plenty of space for everything. Tesco's delivery worked well for us and we topped up with bits from the local shops. We enjoyed the local walks, a few drinks in the local pub (The Plough)and a visit to Longleat Safari Park. The Wfi is highspeed BT/EE and reaches throughout the accommodation and on to the veranda. We think there was someone in the annexe, however other than the car moving occaisionally we would never have known that they were there. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

"We had the most wonderful time at the River House."
It was the perfect place to meet up and to spend precious time with our adult children. Katherine was very welcoming in her communications and left us a very generous welcome pack. The wonderful verandah was a lovely place to view the beautiful garden, wildlife and the river. It was just so peaceful. The cottage itself was spacious and very comfortable and clean with everything you would need. We felt totally at home. We visited Avebury, Stonehenge and Salisbury Cathedral during our visit. All were excellent. Thank you for a fabulous break. We would love to return one day.

"Our 3 generations of family had a great time at the River House, the property is comfortable and spacious, a real home from home, absolutely loved the library, what a treat!"
The large gardens are out of this world, so peaceful with wonderful views. We didn't feel the need to go out much at all as we just enjoyed relaxing in the house and garden, however there are 2 pubs and supermarket within a very short distance, great bus services so you can leave the car at home. The owner was very helpful and attentive, would thoroughly recommend the River House.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, especially that it was so nice that you wanted to stay in the house and Gardens and enjoy the peace and Tranquility. It was lovely to have you at the river house. Thank you Katherine Property Owner

"This has to be one of the best Holidays we have had."
You could not have asked for a nicer place to stay. The owner was in contact with information that we may need. If you are looking for a peaceful Holiday, this is the one for you.

"A wonderful property."
Superbly located with wildlife everywhere you look. Our autistic son was particularly fond of the cows in the field opposite! You couldn't wish for more helpful and attentive owners. A magical holiday.
Thank you for the most lovely feedback im so pleased the family and especially your son enjoyed it so much Thank you Katherine Property Owner

"From our initial booking to the day we left everything exceeded our expectations."
Communication from the Owner prior to our trip was particularly impressive, this continued throughout our stay. The location is tranquil and extremly attractive, the house contains everything you would wish for and plenty more. It offered so much that we only left the property once for a mini shop. The fishing was challenging, but fun and my wife really enjoyed her first ever attempts at fly fishing. It was one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had. A truly remarkable property .
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. Sorry ny response is a little slow. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay so much. Regards Katherine Property Owner

"Fantastic property."
We had a wonderful 3 generation family holiday here. The attention to detail was great. The kitchen was really well equipped, so family meals were a pleasure to make and eat, sometimes outside, sometimes in the beautiful dining room. Great location on the river. Superb garden. We enjoyed visits to Salisbury, Marlborough, Paultons Park and Amesbury. We all agreed we would love to stay here again. Communication with the owner was excellent, so no problems at all. Thoroughly recommend.
Thank you so much for your lovely feed back. I agree it is the most perfect place for a multi generation holiday. My warm regards Katherine Property Owner

"Three generations of our family enjoyed a fantastic holiday at The River House."
The surroundings are beautiful and we all found it very relaxing. The house is wonderfully well appointed and had everything we needed and more. Thank you Katherine for the excellent welcome pack. The wildlife in and around the garden is incredible and one can just sit on the verandah and enjoy the views. All being well we are hoping to visit for a third time next year. Angela
Such a pleasure to have you again. Next we will meet I promise Property Owner

"Three generations of our family had a wonderful stay at The River House."
The property is really beautiful and had everything we needed and more. We really did not want to leave and will certainly go back. With the river running through the garden we saw herons fishing ,swans and ducks. Because the grounds cover both sides of the river there are no passing boats so it is very private. The verandah with lovely garden furniture meant we could be outside even when the weather wasn't on our side. The owner was very helpful and had left us a welcome tray of goodies to start our stay. The accommodation was beautiful and very comfortable. If anyone had mobility problems this would be an ideal property as everything is on one level and spacious. There are walks directly from the garden and Salisbury is not far away. Absolutely no negatives with this beautiful house.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. It is indeed the perfect place for families to gather together I am so pleased you enjoyed it My warm regards Katherine Property Owner

"My husband, myself, Son and 4 grandchildren arrived at River House with so much excitement for the week ahead."
The house was more than perfect, we loved it. The children had been excited about the library part of the house which they immersed themselves straight away. It felt like home and very spacious and we settled in straight away and enjoyed the holiday immensely. The children were able to visit Stonehenge and other historical areas which they were interested in as they were learning this at school. As adults everything was to hand in the kitchen, bathrooms etc and the decor was so beautifully put together ( the children rang the Gong for meal times) which was fun. We saw wildlife each day which added to it charm. The perfect house for a perfect holiday
Thank you so much for such wonderful feedback. Im so glad your whole family enjoyed it so much and were able to see so much wildlife My best wishes Katherine Property Owner

"We had an excellent stay at The River House."
The house is lovely and fully equipped, with a beautiful setting - the perfect environment to relax and enjoy the company of friends and family. The owner made every effort to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. We look forward to staying there again - hopefully sometime soon.
Thank you so much for such lovely feedback. You would be most welcome at the River House again My best regards Katherine Property Owner

"A wonderful home away from home in an amazing setting - perfect for a special family occasion."
Thoughtfully set-up and the kitchen incredibly well stocked. The welcome pack was a lovely touch too. Excellent communication throughout, thank you, Katherine! A memorable week-long stay for three generations. Thank you so much, we couldn’t have asked for more.
Thank you so much for such wonderful feedback, I agree it is the perfect space for a family get-together, whatever the occasion. With warm regards, Katherine Property Owner

"Well resourced property in a lovely riverside garden."
Access to public footpaths. Ideally placed for Stonehenge, Salisbury, Avebury and Longleat. Our group of 8 adults, us, our children and their partners, all enjoyed staying at this special house. Plenty of room, welcome goodies, information well presented. Everything we wanted. Thank you
Thank you very much for posting such a lovely feedback for us. We are so glad you enjoyed the river house and the area around it. We agree there is so much to see within a short distance. We love sharing the river house with families. It is the perfect place for a family get-together. With warm regards Katherine Property Owner

"We had a wonderful holiday at the River House."
It was such a lovely property in such a beautiful setting that we had to force ourselves to go out and explore the local area and always looked forward to coming "home". We did enjoy visits to Longleat, Salisbury and Winchester and several indulgent lunches in local pubs, with the Malet Arms in Newton Tony being a favourite with a very friendly welcome and good choice of food. The property itself is very spacious and comfortable (super comfy beds), tastefully furnished and very well equipped, with obviously a lot of thought gone into guests comfort and enjoyment by the owners. But the star of the show has to be the stunning outside space which exceeded expectations. We were happy to spend hours wandering around the extensive gardens, just wildlife and bird watching and just enjoying the tranquillity of river and countryside views. A truly memorable experience .
What lovely things you say about The River House. We do feel it is a very special place and we enjoy letting other stay for holidays and enjoying it too. The Malet is my favourite too Thank you again Katherine Property Owner

"The River House is a great property for a relaxed and tranquil countryside holiday."
The accommodation is very spacious and comfortable for 8 adults, with all modern amenities of a high standard. The location with a large garden adjacent to the river Avon and views over the surrounding open countryside, provide a very relaxed feel to a holiday. Yet the village shops, Stonehenge and Salisbury are in very easy reach. We all enjoyed our weeks stay and hope/plan to return sometime.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We look forward to welcoming you again one day. So glad you enjoyed your stay my regards Katherine Property Owner

"We had a wonderful, truly memorable stay at The River House."
The property suited everyone in our group, from my 90 year old father down to our 3 teenage children. The grounds were spectacular and we could have stayed at the house all day rather than doing the obligatory sightseeing. The weather was particularly sunny so most of our time was spent outside basking in the amazing setting. We have rented many houses over the years, both in Ireland and abroad, The River House was the best equipped property we have ever stayed in. The owners were extremely generous with what they provided and it was very much appreciated. The owner, Katherine, was always on hand via phone and was lovely to deal with. We would highly recommend this property. It feels like a real home that the owners care about and want to share.
Thank you so much for such lovely feedback. It is really appreciated katherine Property Owner

"We had a wonderful stay."
Gorgeous holiday house in stunning grounds, with the tranquil River Avon flowing through. So much wildlife, and amazing weather. Very peaceful with easy access to lovely countryside walks. The house had everything we could wish for - comfortable, stylish and perfect for relaxing as a large group, as well as entertaining visitors. The huge beautifully styled veranda with views of the river was superb, a joy for sharing a barbecue - so much space to spread out. The owner was wonderful, lots of tips and readily available if needed. Lots to see locally, Stonehenge, Woodhenge, Salisbury Cathedral, Longleat, White Horses, Heale Garden. Wildlife we saw: kingfisher (x4), heron, swans regularly feeding right in front of us, trout, water voles(!), green woodpeckers, buzzards, red kite, squirrels, damsel flies, dragonflies. A beautiful oasis in nature and a quintessentially English countryside holiday let. A joy to be able to stay there.
Thank you so much for such wonderful feedback it was a joy to have you at the river house thank you Katherine Property Owner

"The River House is a lovely property with stunning surroundings."
Lots of space and plenty of outdoor seating. A verandah provided plenty of undercover seating and an outdoor dining area. A peaceful location with plenty of wildlife to look out for. Perfect for a catch up with friends and visiting the many places of interest. Katherine provided a welcome pack which was appreciated and is available should you need anything.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I’m so glad you enjoyed the Veranda and the outdoor space and had a lovely get-together with friends and family. It is the perfect place for that. Thank you Katherine Property Owner

"This was a little piece of heaven."
Beautiful cottage and location. Can't beat this for peace and tranquility. We could have sat on the veranda all day enjoying the extensive gardens, views and the visiting wildlife, but felt that we did need to go out and explore a bit. The owners had thought of everything for our comfort and provided a few extra little luxuries to welcome us to the property. Very tastefully furnished. Would book this again in a heartbeat.
Thank you for leaving us such lovely feedback for The River House. Property Owner

"An excellent stay with a stunning garden and very clean , it was the perfect tonic for a chilled getaway and nice to see all the wildlife in the garden and on the river."
Our only thing that we would change is the sofa's they were very low and loose cushion which were not the comfiest.
So glad you enjoyed your stay and the wildlife. Sorry you found the sofas not so comfy. We will look into rectifying this as we want The River House to be perfect for everyone . Property Owner

"What a wonderful place!"
The house and grounds are stunning, the furnishings comfortable and the rooms well equipped. It is a perfect haven for nature lovers, like ourselves. During our stay, we saw a variety of wildlife including: blue tits and their fledglings, a flock of Canada geese and several goslings, squirrels, swans, ducks and ducklings, a reed warbler, a nuthatch, chaffinches, a woodpecker, moorhens, a heron (several visits!!), a water rat, many other garden birds (right outside our window) and we also heard a woodpecker. Sadly, we did not have the pleasure of catching sight of the otter or the kingfisher - maybe next time?? We spent many happy hours wandering the gardens and watching the river. The location is also perfect for visiting Stonehenge (we walked from Woodhenge) - the public byway that means you don't need to pay to get to see the stones. Salisbury is only twenty minutes or so drive away and it is easy to get to the many other interesting archaeological sites in the region. There is a local shop in the village only a ten minute walk away, which sells everything you might need. All in all, we didn't want to leave at the end of the week - we truly felt like our batteries had been fully recharged! We would highly recommend The River House as a perfect place to relax, unwind and immerse yourself in the calming effects of nature :-)
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I’m so glad you enjoyed the river house. You were very sensible walking to Stonehenge. We do that at solstice and enjoy being able to move around them without having to drive to the visitor centre. So glad you saw so much wildlife too. We love sharing the river house Thank you again, Katherine Property Owner

"We had a lovely time at ‘The River House’."
The House is well equipped, the beds super-comfy and all set in a beautiful location by the river. We enjoyed the short tree walk within the grounds and longer walks from the back gate of the property. The decking and veranda at the back of the house is a fantastic space, ideal for al fresco lunches, BBQs or just watching the river. We had daily visits from the Heron, swans, water voles and plenty of garden birds. We also caught glimpses of the Kingfishers and even one short glimpse of the otters a little further upstream. The owner is very helpful and made us feel very welcome – would definitely recommend especially for nature lovers!
Thank you for leaving us such lovely feedback for The River House. You were so lucky to see the otter. I’m so pleased you saw so much other wildlife Property Owner

"We enjoyed a very relaxing family stay at River House."
We loved waking up to the fantastic view over the river and fields, lunching on the veranda and then having a cosy fire in the lounge at the end of the day. My 5yr old thought the rope swing was fantastic. No sign of the kingfisher, but the heron came to visit every day. We hope to return one day.

"The River House was possibly the nicest holiday home we have stayed in."
The house was immaculate and provided us with everything we needed for a very luxurious holiday. There was so much space inside and out. Despite awful weather it was still lovely to wander round the garden and go across the bridge and beyond. Location is excellent in terms of being rural but very easy and quick access to Salisbury. Plenty to do in the immediate locality so no need to travel far. Beds were very comfy, bathrooms were clean and there was plenty of hot water, kitchen had everything we needed. The log burner was excellent and sitting by that in the evening was a real treat. Thank you Katherine for thinking of everything and allowing us to stay in your gorgeous holiday home. We will be back !
Thank you for leaving us such lovely feedback for The River House. We would love to welcome you back . Property Owner

"We stayed in the River House for a week with extended family, with my husband and I working while grandparents looked after the kids."
The house worked perfectly for this - WiFi connection was good and there was plenty of space for everyone. The outside space is fantastic and while we weren't able to enjoy it so much in February, in spring and summer the veranda would really come into its own. Would recommend wholeheartedly.

"This is a late review due to medical issues."
We could not have chosen a better property to celebrate my husbands big birthday with friends, which was so important. My jaw dropped on entry. It was just perfect. Even when we had a mini tornado up the road outing our power for about 36 hours as a tree fell across the road & over the electric gates preventing our use of the cars it was an experience! The owner did all she could from a great distance, was so very helpful and her son came from several miles away to assist. The local tree surgeon immediately got on with removing the tree from across the road.The neighbours were fantastic with an extension lead to keep a fridge and kettle going and the fabulous wood burner kept us all toasty! No issue, just an experience! The property was really well equipped all round. I took my own kitchen scales and mixer to make a birthday cake but I need not have bothered as they were available. A room to put wet gear and wellies and a shooting stick which my husband much appreciated at the time. The master bedroom has a large TV and lovely electric flame fire (expensive holiday as I now want that fire!) and own veranda. The beds are so comfortable! The cushions had kindly been left out for veranda furniture even though it was the first week in November. So glad as we used it regularly and had 3 breakfasts outside. Just beautiful. The house is adorned with fab artwork, some by the owner, some personal. Just a shame we did not have time to make use of the books in the lovely library. We saw the heron, swans and kingfisher but sadly missed the otter. The river is so lovely and there are many local walks. There were a couple of snagging issues which owners were keen to know about - could only laugh at the fact I could not get out of our bathroom one evening as the lock did not work (only used due to outage situation) just as I was about to climb out of the window, friend managed to manipulate the lock from the outside! This is so good as many places we have been in the UK are clearly not interested in snags. No negatives at all! Just don't book when we want to return!!
What absolutely lovely feedback, thank you so much for posting this. I’m sorry I did not respond earlier, my apologies I’m so glad that even in November you enjoyed it so much and were able to use the outside Veranda. Your feedback made me chuckle and I’m glad you had a sense of humour about the bathroom incident. My best wishes, Katherine Property Owner

"A lovely accomodation in a quiet and peaceful area."
Views of open green space, seating from an elevated hilltop and a running river with ducks, swans and other wildlife makes this place a relaxing stay. Ample space for cars and easy access to areas like Stonehenge and Salisbury nearby. The owner was attentive, commincative and helpful to put ones mind at rest for any issues related to our stay.

"A fantastic property in a stunning location."
Excellent facilities and tons of space, both inside and out. Highly recommended for a large family or a group holiday, plenty of parking space and the host is very friendly and happy to help where needed. Despite the rural location the property is very easy to access, just seconds from the main road and 5 minutes from the A303. Great for exploring Salisbury (about 15 mins away by car). We arranged an Ocado delivery on the first night which made things very simple, but there is a medium-sized Tesco in Amesbury and larger supermarkets (Tesco and Waitrose) in Salisbury itself.
