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.

We had the greatest experience at The Gallivant. The service, the food, the attention to detail, the location – all first class. Lindsay was so helpful and sweet she even gave us a ride to the train station when our taxi didn't show. I highly recommend a visit to The Gallivant.

A truly wonderful stay, all staff are brilliant, all very friendly and welcoming and the food is incredible as is the drinks list. particularly like the fact that you support local producers. We were surprised and thrilled by the unexpected room upgrade for our 1 night stay – the room was stunning.
The entire team were amazing, particularly Lindsay and Corey who did a great job on the front welcome desk, Frankie, Alesha and all the waiting staff and of course Paul who did a fabulous job of ensuring everything ran smoothly and was so generous in sharing his expert knowledge and enthusiasm for the wines. We rarely go to a hotel more than once as we like to try new places, but for the Gallivant we make an exception -this was our 3rd visit and as always it was a joy, so relaxing.

Another fantastic couple of days with you. I never thought Camber Sands would be high on my list when it came to needing a relaxing break!
Everything was impeccable. Food is amazing – best steak we have ever had-, wine is really interesting, yoga a great bonus – even got to do beach yoga. We had a garden room this time – would probably go back to Baby Hampton if possible next time but we did get to sit in the garden which was very peaceful.
