Your Coastal Celebration

WEDNESDAY 30th to FRIDAY 1st JANUARY

This New Year, make the coast your home. At The Gallivant in East Sussex, our New Year Escape blends calm by the dunes, seasonal food at Harry’s and the spark of midnight fireworks overlooking Camber Sands.

At The Gallivant, New Year’s Eve always feels effortless.

Imagine the tranquility of long walks along our deserted beach, or starting that good book you’ve never quite started. Evenings focus on delicious dinners, with nothing more taxing than choosing which cocktail to start the evening.

Champagne in hand, candlelights flickering, our New Year’s escape has been thoughtfully designed to balance relaxation with moments of celebration, creating memories to carry with you throughout the coming year.

*****

Your New Year’s experience includes:

Upon arrival we’ll welcome you to The Gallivant with a freshly baked cake from the kitchen, before you enjoy a delightful a la carte dinner in Harry’s.

New Year’s Eve Day starts with an early morning wellness class for those inclined before a leisurely Gallivant breakfast to decide the plans for the day.  As the dusk falls, the evening unfolds with champagne, canapés and laughter, accompanied by our brilliant pianist to set the scene.

An exquisite four-course dinner at Harry’s leads into the night’s celebration with coffee and digestifs, fireworks on our terrace, and a midnight champagne toast to ring in the New Year.

New Year’s Day can start with a restorative wellness class for the strong before another a leisurely Gallivant breakfast, giving time to reflect on the night just past and the year ahead and fond farewells.

We’ve attended to every detail to ensure your New Year’s with us will be both restorative and joyful—the perfect beginning to 2027.

Our stay was made nothing less than perfect by the entire Gallivant team, a real role model for the hotel & hospitality industry.

Each member of staff took time to introduce themselves and go above and beyond to make our stay comfortable.

May I also add that to say this hotel is ‘Dog-friendly’ would be and understatement, our three dogs were greater with the same warmth and hospitality as any two-legged guest.

Thank you for a wonderful stay and look forward to visiting again very soon!

With love,
Stephanie, Mia, crumble, biscuit & fluffy 🐾🐾🐾

A fantastic stay with my dog, thanks to a charming, welcoming and positive team from arriving to leaving.
Stayed in the middle of winter, blustery walks, cosy afternoons in the communal ‘snug’ area filled with board games, books and bowls of fruit and nuts. Dinner was delicious both nights and everyone hugely knowledgable and wanting to help. Highly recommend a stay and look forward to being back soon!

A huge thanks to the whole team for making my stay at the Gallivant really special, and the relaxing start to 2023 that I really needed. Particular shout outs to Lindsay for being so cheery, welcoming and happy to help each day, to Georgina and Dan for breakfast service with a smile, and to Felix, Paul and Jonathan for making sure my wine choices were always on point and for being excellent hosts. The location is ideal, my room was lovely, and Truffle enjoyed it too! I am already looking forward to my next stay…
