The Carnarvon Arms is nestled in a wonderfully central position to many famous sporting estates and fishing rivers and we have the delights of Highclere Castle just on our doorstep.

Shoot Parties at The Carnarvon Arms

Our countryside pub and hotel is the perfect quintessential setting for a shooting or fishing party. With roaring fires and character-filled guest rooms, along with a private dining room, we’ve created the perfect setting for those hosting celebrations and events.

Our Events Manager will be on hand to ensure your shooting or fishing event runs without a hitch. With many famous Berkshire estates on our doorstep such as Highclere Estate, West Woodhay and Bereleigh, retreat to our pub after for an evening of fantastic dining, real cask ales and wine, and the option to relax upstairs in comfort in one of our lovely hotel bedrooms after.
