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.

Staying at the Gallivant is a uniquely wonderful experience. I've stayed in plenty of nice hotels and eaten at plenty of good restaurants, but the Gallivant goes way beyond this. The attention to detail (whether in the garden, the decor, the housekeeping, the complimentary cake and wine, or whatever) is extraordinary, and guests feel really well looked after. I'd like to thank all the staff, who achieve exactly the right balance of friendliness and helpfulness, without ever being intrusive. A triumph!

Hi Conor
Wonderful stay, 2 nights last weekend. Relaxed, cosy and welcoming. Staff, without exception, were hard-working, positive and truly helpful. Special thanks to Jo (nothing was too much trouble) and Ruth (great Reflexology treatment). You have created a great atmosphere and the breakfast tray was a new idea which injected an interesting twist on usual buffet breakfasts. Thank you to all your team. The attention to detail and care often comes from the top so thank you to you too!
Kind regards

We had yet another perfect stay at the Gallivant. Dinner both nights was delicious, we loved the new breakfast tray and John and his team at the bar continue to do an amazing job. English wine at 5 is such a treat and a fun way to discover new local wines, which we wouldn't otherwise have tried. We can't wait for our next stay and I am sure will continue to be regulars at the Gallivant for years to come.
