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.

My partner and I had a great stay at the Gallivant celebrating his birthday. We got a room upgrade which was a lovely surprise and the room, bar and restaurant were all beautifully decorated with great ambience. The small touches including wine at five and oyster happy hour were great and all food we ate was delicious. We especially enjoyed the huge spread at breakfast! Thank you for a great stay – we’d love to return soon!

Hi – thanks for the opportunity to feedback. I think just enjoyed my 10th or 11th stay and as divine as ever. My dog (Hamilton) ALWAYS comes with me – and everyone is so brilliant to him and me. I know the names of Lindsey and Nikita – and they are awesome, but there are so many others in the Gallivant team who just give me the best customer service every time – be it breakfast or dinner or check in or the cheeky Negroni, or English glass at wine time. Thank you always. Claire Thwaites
