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 such a special dinner on Saturday night. The staff were so friendly and attentive from the minute we walked in and the food was absolutely delicious. The staff even over heard us chatting away about mushrooms and gave us the details of the mushroom experience the staff were doing if we wanted to do it ourselves. I will be recommending The Gallivant! Thank you so much,

We visited Gallivant for the third time last week in glorious sunshine.
Once again we found great friendly service, delicious food and beautiful terrace & garden.
We will return.

Thank you for a lovely weekend at the Gallivant. You have created a little oasis with attractive places to relax and so many lovely touches. The staff were all excellent – always friendly and quick to respond to any requests and the food was absolutely delicious. Breakfast, with the tray and then choice of hot food was also lovely.

Our room was a little on the snug side for the room rate but was very attractively decorated. Fresh water on tap at the bar was really good and the sundowner on our package was great. It would be nice to have had tea / coffee in our room or a flask of hot water and some sachets available so we could make a drink without coming to ask. We would definitely recommend the Gallivant to friends and family.
