A Happy Christmas by the sea

WEDNESDAY 23rd to FRIDAY 26th DECEMBER

You are invited to our Christmas House Party by the sea.

We’ve created the perfect festive retreat – imagine crisp December days filled with invigorating walks along our pristine beach followed by cosy evenings of games and conversation beside our roaring log fire.  As twilight falls, craft cocktails await, and intimate dinners in our acclaimed restaurant, Harry’s.

Chef Matthew’s exceptional festive menus celebrate the season, each course thoughtfully paired with fine and rare wines, concluding with moreish digestifs to make every evening truly memorable.

*****

Upon arrival on the 23rd, we’ll welcome you to The Gallivant with freshly baked mince pies, brandy butter and tea in the Sitting Room, before you enjoy an à la carte dinner in Harry’s.

Christmas Eve brings a leisurely Gallivant breakfast, time for long beach walks, and relaxation in our snug. We’ll serve Christmas cake and tea in the afternoon, followed by our special Christmas Eve menu at Harry’s.

For Christmas Day, we’re serving a champagne breakfast to start your celebrations, followed by more champagne and canapés before our three-course Christmas lunch. The afternoon offers Christmas cake, tea, and board games in the Sitting Room. Later, we’ll provide a Christmas supper tray for you to enjoy wherever you wish.

On Boxing Day, join us for a morning yoga class before your final Gallivant breakfast.

We’ve attended to every detail to ensure your Christmas with us will be both relaxing and memorable.

It’s an easy place to fall in love with, great food, lovely comfortable bedrooms and I’ll bag on about it again, the fantastic team.
The whole space is beautifully curated, comfortable seating areas, lots of board games, books and beautiful artwork all nestled around a wonderful fire that instantly warmed the heart and every tight knot that a busy life can create.

Wow, what an incredible stay. We are so glad we went for the 30% off for under 30s package – it really blew us away and we felt like we got great value for money. Every detail of the hotel was so well thought through. We thoroughly enjoyed our wine and crisps at 5pm and the beautiful breakfast in the morning! Our breakfast server was so friendly.
Would highly recommend to friends and family.
