At the River Run, Afternoon Tea is a big occasion. This intimate afternoon will be spent with friends or family in the unique environment of River Run House sipping tea or coffee and indulging on a beautiful selection of sandwiches, wraps and the most delicious array of home baked pastries.

Our Afternoon Tea is a private affair where guests can spend time in their own company, with only one group catered for at any one time. We offer this opportunity to residents and non-residents and we cater for groups of 6 to 12 guests. Our overnight accommodation and weekend packages can include the Afternoon Tea option for larger resident groups.

We can adapt our menu to include a cheeseboard and charcuterie selection for those with a smaller sweet tooth but we can also increase the sugar content and go all out with pastries, cakes and all things sweet. The choice is entirely yours – you won’t be disappointed.

Afternoon Tea is priced at €35 per person for non-residents and €30 per person for resident guests of River Run House & Cottages.

River Run House & Cottages is an ideal location for family gatherings – our Main House is a beautiful space to catch up and swap stories with relations. Younger family members can while away the hours playing pool and games in our Hen House – a separate games room located within the garden.

The option to cook at home in our fabulous Main House kitchen, BBQ on our south-facing deck area or pop across the road to Paddy’s Bar or The Derg Inn for dinner is entirely yours.

We welcome groups here at River Run House & Cottages, our accommodation lends itself to large groups within the Main House and extending into our Cottages. Whether it’s an activity based outing or a golfing break – we can organise a break away to suit your needs. We offer accommodation with an option for breakfast and/or afternoon tea for your group (14-26 guests) along with dinner at Paddy’s Bar.

We have packages that cater for active retired groups who prefer to travel at quieter times of the year.

Hen party season is back on track. River Run House & Cottages has a long history with this traditional pre-wedding celebration, groups of up to 30 guests can be accommodated with or without breakfast with an added option of afternoon tea and dinner in Paddy’s Bar across the road. You can arrange one of our suggested activities for the group or simply relax in the tranquility of the beautiful Terryglass countryside.

The community hall has been serving the community of Terryglass for over 200 years. It was built as a Roman Catholic Church around 1811. In 1886, the new Catholic Church was built which led to the hall building being decommissioned and turned into a National School.

In 1954 the new school was built and the use of the building changed again to a community hall. Over the years it has been the centre of entertainment for the parish with plays and dances taking place. It is used for bingo and music evenings. All local groups and associations use the hall for meetings on a regular basis.

In 2019 the community hall underwent major works to enhance its facilities which make it a perfect venue for groups to gather and hold meetings or have exhibitions etc. The hall can cater for meetings or accommodate people working remotely at separate workstations. It can seat 50 people in a theatre setting or 24 people with individual desks. There is a printing and a photocopying service available as well as a fully equipped kitchen. The rate is €25 per hour.
