Tweed River House, a distinguished, colonial-style manor on the banks of the Tweed River in Murwillumbah, is celebrated for its elegant fusion of historic charm and engaging hospitality. The venue provides a dining experience against the breathtaking backdrop of Wollumbin and the Border Ranges, making it a top choice for both locals and visitors.
The Tweed River House is well known for supporting talented local artists and offers the following monthly music events.
Their signature Jazz Dinners, where the soulful Caroline Agostini fills the night with timeless jazz classics from icons like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Gershwin, and Nat King Cole, along with some modern favourites. Caroline performs three captivating sets on select Saturday nights, perfectly paired with either the á la carte or set dinner menus, which you can choose on the night. The next performance is on November 16, in addition to a special Christmas Eve Jazz Carols Dinner to celebrate the festive season in style.
On select Sundays this spring and summer, you can enjoy local musician Luke Pauley, performing his own hits as well as famous covers at the riverside Lawn Bar. The perfect place to enjoy your favourite drink as you watch the river flow by.
Dining here offers several areas, you can enjoy sweeping river views from the verandah, experience the main dining room’s vintage pressed-tin ceilings and palm fans, or celebrate in the Chandelier Private Dining Room. For a more casual setting, the riverside Lawn Bar serves a tapas-style menu, while the chic Palm Lounge, indoors, offers comfortable Bahamas lounge chairs, perfect for pairing drinks with hors d’oeuvres or afternoon tea.
The menu celebrates the finest ingredients from Northern Rivers’ farms, rivers, and oceans.
