The River Mill is a venue with a difference, handsomely sitting on a world heritage site of Darley Abbey Mills, it’s unique riverside terrace overlooks the stunning Riviera-style backdrop.
The quirky yet stylish interior and industrial décor has made it one of the most popular wedding destinations in the UK.
It is the perfect venue for your all-important wedding day, a milestone occasion or corporate event.
Rich in history, the building has been lovingly restored to the highest of standards, whilst complementing the original iconic 1800s architecture. With vaulted ceilings, exposed brickwork, intimate feast in style.
This tranquil space offers a little slice of country just a stone’s throw from the city. With calming sounds of the river, it’s the perfect secret hideaway for you and your guests. Whether you’re sipping G&Ts on a summer’s afternoon or treating your guests to a BBQ station, a tapas style sharing platter or grazing table, we create a riverside magic like no other.
If you would like the horsebox to be open to serve drinks during your drinks reception, there isn’t a charge for us to do so!
Drinks need to be pre-ordered in advance via The River Mill Kitchen. Or, if you would like your guests to pay for their own drinks we can operate a token system, where they purchase a token inside at the bar and then select drinks from The Horsebox.
