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.

Fantastic few days in the capable hands of The Galivant team. New Years dinner was lovely and such a bonus to be able to bring my dog.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Gallivant. We were in need of a space to switch off and re-set and we couldn't have chosen a better place to do that. I wanted to be able to take a book and sit somewhere where I could relax and read in a lovely space. From the photos it was hard to tell if that would be possible but it turned out to be perfect. Lots of different spaces to choose from and really well designed. The added tweak to breakfast was a great idea, elevenses was fantastic after a walk along the beach and wine at 5 was brilliant. I thought it was really good that the wine came from a local vineyard that you could then go and visit, if you wanted to. Our room upgrade to a luxury garden room was amazing. Everyone who worked there was really helpful and friendly and we had the perfect time away. Thank you.
