Programme of Events

Christmas Eve - Saturday 24th December 2011

Your house party begins from midday when you arrive. Relax and unwind in front of the log fires, enjoying a hearty Lancashire afternoon tea. You may want to head into Lancaster for some last minute Christmas shopping, or just stay indoors relaxing in our Leisure Complex.

Tim Bell, General Manager, and his team, invite you to the evening celebrations with a champagne and canapé reception, where you will have the opportunity to meet your hosts and welcome friends, old and new. The magic of the carol singers sets the festive mood and then we'll take you through to a 4-course dinner in the Foodworks Restaurant. The local parish churches welcome the community and visitors alike for midnight mass. Mulled wine with mince pies will await your return to the hotel.

NB: Please note that arrangements for midnight mass should be made on an individual basis. Details of various local churches, and directions, are available from reception.

Christmas Day - Sunday 25th December 2011

A Very Merry Christmas will begin at breakfast time when Father Christmas has promised once again to take time out from his busy schedule and make an appearance, bearing gifts for all. After you’ve opened all your presents, join us for a glass of champagne in front of the fire before settling down to our traditional five-course Christmas Luncheon. A half-bottle of wine per person is included with your lunch. Suitably well fed and watered, the afternoon is yours to “snooze off” if you wish. Tonight's celebrations continue with a light but sumptuous buffet for your dining pleasure. The evening is relaxed and informal with parlour games for all the family.

Boxing Day - Monday 26th December 2011

A hearty brunch will be served all morning. For the afternoon, we’ve once again organised our very own Winter Olympics with fun games and challenges for the whole family.

You return to the hotel for dinner, which will then be followed by our Big Festive Pub Quiz with great prizes for the “Eggheads” amongst you.
