About Us

The Cross Guns is set in magical surroundings twixt the railway, river and canal at Avoncliff near Bradford-on-Avon.

There is a uniquely attractive terraced garden to relax, or dine ‘al fresco’ with seating galore from which to enjoy the natural vegetation, and riverside wild life.

The Cross Guns has a very warm and welcoming ambience with a wealth of old beams, inglenook and log burning stoves. You can roast your toes in winter as you sip your malts or enjoy the home made mulled wine in the cheery glow.

The Cross Guns, which dates back to 1550, is uniquely situated in a country setting in the quiet canal-side hamlet of AVONCLIFF, set amidst the Kennet and Avon Canal and the River Avon flowing under the Aqueduct which gracefully adorns the Cross Gun garden.

The Cross Guns is open every day of the week throughout the year and this family run establishment aims to ensure a friendly comfortable atmosphere with good food and pleasing wines and ales.
