Attended my sons (and now daughter in law's) wedding at Roman Camp on Jubilee Friday. What can I say! Stunning surroundings, beautiful gardens and the ceremony was held by the river in glorious sunshine! All the staff were very attentive and friendly. The food was amazing and catered for all dietary requirements. We were fortunate enough to have a room for the night of the wedding which was equally as amazing, followed by a delicious breakfast. We didn't want to leave. Can I just say a huge thank you to Roman Camp for helping to make the most perfect day.

We met friends for lunch at the Potting Shed. Novel building, probably more suited to summer use than in the colder months, but set in fascinating grounds abutting the river. Imaginative menu (not your normal lunchtime standards), quality food cooked to perfection, decent coffee, charming waitress and sensible prices. Well recommended.
