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.

Hi Conor
My wife and I had a lovely time at your hotel. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful but unfortunately couldn’t mention them by name.There was a really good vibe created by every member of staff in all areas of the hospitality rooms.
The breakfast and dinner on both days were superb and the afternoon cakes and cocktails works really well!
We also had two great massages and facials along with an excellent private yoga session.
The only problem we had, was the weather!!!

The food was 10/10, I really liked that we weren’t given a limited menu because we had the special offer, and I just loved the morning yoga class too!
We will definitely be returning

My stay at "The Gallivant" was simply wonderful!
I really enjoyed my time with you and felt comfortable.
The morning yoga classes with India are great fun, especially at the beach, and are absolute enrichment for the day.
All the staff, from reception to the chambermaids, were always very friendly and helpful. Everyone radiated good humor and I felt very welcome.

The range of beach towels, blankets also. is wonderful.
I liked the fact that you can tap your own water all day long.

I'm planning my next visit with my husband and I'm already looking forward to the "Drinks at the dunes"!

Kind wishes,

Johanna Ward
