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 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Gallivant. On arrival, we were greeted by the receptionist (Jo I think). She was very welcoming and enthusiastic and took pleasure in explaining everything to us. The decor and general presentation of the hotel was superb: tasteful decoration and furnishings all around, culminating in a stunning room (Wight). We felt perfectly at home, with the beautiful surroundings adding to our feeling of 'being spoilt'. All other aspects of the hotel did not disappoint. Staff and service were all 'spot on'. We simply do not know why there are not more hotels like this. Is it that difficult to offer top quality in ambience, furnishings, art work, food – and so much more? Sadly, The Gallivant is the exception to the general rule. Others could take some lessons on 'how to do it'. Thank you. We will be returning.
