Why a Gift Voucher Is the Most Thoughtful Present This Christmas
Every December the same question comes round: what do you buy for the person who has everything, or the one who says they want nothing at all? Our answer is simple. Give them time well spent.
Experiences over things
Most of us have more than enough things. What we never seem to have enough of is time with the people we love, or an afternoon where nobody is checking their phone. A gift voucher from The Riverside House Hotel turns a present into a plan: a reason to put a date in the diary and look forward to it.

Something for everyone
Afternoon Tea Voucher: delicate finger sandwiches, warm scones with clotted cream and jam, savoury bites and a tier of cakes, served with a pot of freshly brewed tea. From £21.95 per person, with the option of a glass of chilled Prosecco.
A Night Away for Two: a comfortable room in our historic Georgian hotel, with breakfast or dinner as optional extras. A lovely anniversary or birthday present. From £179.95.
Money Voucher: choose any amount from £10, to spend on food, drink and stays, across as many visits as they like.
Last-minute? No problem
E-vouchers are emailed straight away and are free to send, so there is still time on Christmas Eve. If you would rather have something to wrap, we will post your voucher in our gift packaging by Royal Mail 1st Class for £5.99, or by Special Delivery or on a specified day for £13.50.
A gift that lasts beyond Christmas
Vouchers are valid for 12 months, so the treat does not have to be squeezed into a busy December. A sunny afternoon tea overlooking the gardens, a spring weekend away, a birthday lunch with friends: they choose when.
Who it is perfect for
Parents and grandparents who insist they do not need anything
Couples who never get a night off together
Friends you keep promising to catch up with
Colleagues, teachers and anyone you want to say a proper thank you to
