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.

Our stay was part of an Ultimate English Wine Experience that my wife bought as my Christmas present. We had a great time at the Gallivant, the only drawback being that it was only for one night.
All food and drinks were excellent with plenty of nice touches.
Staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel that nothing was too much trouble.
Would definitely recommend.

A great place to relax and unwind. Roll up early to enjoy drinks and a spot of lunch on the sun drenched courtyard. The beach is only a short stroll across the dunes and the perfect place to watch sunset over the water as day turns to night.

Soak away the day’s activities in the oversized tub in your ultra comfy room, before sitting down to a locally sourced dinner menu that tastes every bit as good as it looks. The atmosphere is very chilled, it’s adults only, but if you let them know in advance your four legged friends can come too.

This was our second visit and we will definitely be back. Just over an hour and a half from SW London it’s great for a mini holiday or just to treat yourself.
