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 really enjoyed our stay. I was very impressed with the clever architectural and interior designs, just right for a seaside venue. There were a lot of thoughtful touches. Food was excellent, both for dinner and breakfast. And last but by no means least, the staff were really welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Big thanks to the entire team at the Gallivant for making my winter mini break so lovely. I'd like to give a special shout out to jo who was such a gem! I was a little anxious as it was my first solo trip but Jo's warm welcome and little check in's on me throughout my stay put me at ease.

I'll certainly be coming back to stay and have already told my friends to get booking!

We had a super couple of days with you, returning after nearly three years. Why did we stay away so long we asked ourselves as we arrived? A great welcome, lovely room and all the staff on top of their game. We can’t single anyone in particular; reception, bar, restaurant, room service staff were professional and friendly. It is such a relaxing place to be; keep the standards as high as they are and you will thrive. We will be back!
