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.

We received a warm welcome as always. Grateful for the upgrade to a garden room, which we'll probably book next time we visit in the summer. Great help from reception who organised a taxi to take us to Hythe and back.
We were running late in the morning and appreciated the relaxed flexibility over the fabulous breakfast. What we really noticed was the unhurried sense of calm and friendliness from the staff on duty. We've been several times before and we'll definitely be back again.

An exceptional place. Thank you to all at The Gallivant for making us so welcome on a cold January day. The food and wines were excellent. We were so pleased to have a bath in our room – perfect after a long walk. Our waiter who I think was Louisa was very attentive.
Many thanks to all. We will be back!

Thank you so much for such a lovely stay at The Gallivant. It really set me up for the year and allowed me time and space to rest and relax, in a beautiful hotel and location. All the staff were truly excellent. I travel a lot with work, and stay in hotels all over the world and can honestly say I found this to be one of the best. It was a home from home, with such friendly staff (EVERYONE from Monty at the front desk to Anna serving my morning breakfast), who were very happy to help at any moment whilst striking the balance of leaving me to it. I have been telling all friends and colleagues about you, and I can't wait to come back. Thank you again
