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.

I had such a wonderful time at The Gallivant, I feel so refreshed thanks to the beautiful location and incredible staff who were kind and welcoming. My trip was even more special thanks to Evelyn, Lindsay, Naketa and Katie.

Evelyn is a superstar and brilliant at her job – she made my trip even better. We clicked straight away and she made me laugh and feel welcome, she's such a lovely person and an asset to The Gallivant. Also, a huge thank you to Lindsay for upgrading me to the Luxury Garden room – that bathtub was a dream! Naketa was so friendly, helpful and funny. Katie is such a sweet human! I don't usually practice yoga and she made me feel so comfortable and stayed to chat afterwards. If I was local, I'd be at her classes all the time!

Camber Sands is a new favourite place and I'd love to revisit The Gallivant. Thank you so much for making the trip so memorable for me! Tori 🙂

Stayed one night in January. Big mistake – should have stayed more! Beautiful "Hampton"bedroom. Comfortable public lounge filled with interesting books and magazines. Relaxed, friendly staff who were very helpful and professional. The 5pm welcome wine was nice touch and much appreciated. Freezing sleet curtailed our enjoyment of the sand dunes and Camber Sands; but we loved our brief stay.
