Hidden away in the countryside, we feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of Christmas.
Step inside to roaring fires, festive feasts and the kind of warm welcome that keeps guests lingering long after the last mince pie has disappeared. Whether you’re planning a work Christmas party, festive lunch with colleagues, Christmas drinks with friends, or bringing the whole family together for Christmas Day dining, we’ll help make this year’s celebration one to remember.
Just a short drive from Bristol and Bath, we’re the perfect place to escape the everyday and enjoy a festive celebration in one of South Gloucestershire’s most charming country pubs. Settle in, switch off, and enjoy Christmas as it should be – relaxed, cosy and full of good things to eat and drink.
With plenty of natural light, beautiful views and a roaring fire, our Avon View Room was made for cosy Christmas celebrations.

Add delicious festive food, great company and a glass of something special, and you’ve got all the ingredients for a memorable Christmas gathering.
All that’s missing is you.
