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.

Really fabulous stay. After having Covid over Christmas, this really was the trip we needed!
Your staff were so friendly and willing to help. Beautiful interiors. Loved all the thoughtful touches like wine at 5 and elevensies. I used to work for Small Luxury Hotels of the World and have stayed in some incredible hotels around the world, The Gallivant is now up there at the top.
Just one tiny thing – toilet brushes in the rooms would be good!
Thank you for upgrading our room, much appreciated.

We absolutely loved our stay! It was magical. I would suggest that we would have liked proper cups in our room as the beakers got very hot when we had our tea. I was very impressed by the housekeeping team who always seemed to know when we were out of the room to tidy up. I would also suggest one bottle of bubble bath or bath salts to enjoy in the tub.

Ludo trained in the hospitality service in Alsace , where I come from !
We also enjoyed interacting with Paul B about English wines and the pairing with food ,Being French, I love working out the dovetailing of food and wine and your team is doing exactly that .
We love your concept about kooking after your workforce well. They are your strength and are a representation of the ethos of Gallivant. We have a business too in structural engineering and we believe in investing passionately in people .
It is our third visit : we came for New Year 2017, Easter 2018 and we are not disappointed as returned guests . Monty’s smile is most welcoming.
We «  borrowed «  tbe deco concept for our office in Guildford.
Keep up the good work . Your team is commendable and
We will be back .
Happy New Year to all and many happy returns for 2022. Great firework display.
