Great House at Sonning

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Great House at Sonning is a hotel and restaurant with a riverside garden on the Thames near Sonning Bridge at Sonning, Berkshire, England. It is possible for patrons to moor along the towpath running past the hotel on the river.

It was formerly a mere public house, known as the White Hart because King Richard II's wife, Catherine of Valois was kept prisoner at the Bishop's Palace in the village after his death.

Close by, just over Sonning Bridge, is The Mill at Sonning, now a dinner theatre. On the opposite Oxfordshire bank is another riverside hotel and restaurant, The French Horn.
