Christmas Breaks
Friday 23rd December 2011
Arrival is at your leisure and once settled, individual afternoon tea will be served in the Langdale Bar and Lounge with its glorious views over the lake, so synonymous with Low Wood Bay. Dinner this evening will be served in our Windermere Restaurant with its open views over the gardens and distant fells.
Christmas Eve – Saturday 24th December 2011
After a Hearty Lakeland breakfast, take advantage of some free time and partake in a gentle stroll to Ambleside for some last minute stocking fillers, or maybe enjoy morning coffee and biscuits on Lake Windermere, departing from Ambleside pier which is a short walk from the hotel.
This afternoon full afternoon tea will be served, accompanied by several games of “Bingo”. At 5 pm the little ones amongst us will have the chance to join “Sam” the dog and sprinkle Reindeer Sparkles round the ground, so that Santa knows where to drop those all important gifts. After this excitement there will be children’s high tea served in the Windermere Restaurant.
Children, don’t forget to post your letters to Santa in Sam’s post box this evening and follow Santa around the world with our GPS screen which tracks his every move!
Your host, Nevil Jeffery, and his team will welcome you this evening to a Champagne and canapé reception where you will have a chance to meet friends old and new to the sound of our resident Carol Singer. Set the scene for a gourmet dinner in our “Ever Changing” themed Lake Suite – truly a breathtaking sight, it sparkles with a feeling of Christmas in the air and always raises admiring gasps!
Mulled wine, hot chocolate and mince pies will be served for those returning from Midnight Mass.
Christmas Day – Sunday 25th December 2011
A very merry Christmas Day will begin with a Lakeland Buck Fizz Breakfast, when all children receive a Santa sack – filled with treats and entertaining games!
Santa knows your location, so venture out for a brisk stroll along the water’s edge or on the Lakeland fells, bearing in mind the anticipated visit of Santa and his helpers. He will bring gifts for all the children and will also judge the best Christmas tree decoration made to adorn our Reception Tree.
Traditional Christmas Luncheon – with all the trimmings – will follow, full of seasonal cheer with crackers to pull and hats to don, in the festive surroundings of the Windermere Restaurant. The remainder of the day is yours to relax, enjoying the television broadcast of the Queen’s Speech to the accompaniment of Christmas cake and tea.
7.30 pm is our vibrant “Las Vegas” Casino Night for all ages, with prizes to be won and a seafood buffet taking centre stage – this will also include a half-bottle of house wine per person.
Boxing Day – Monday 26th December 2011
Today we have left free for you either to discover, or revisit, the delights that the glorious Lake District has to offer. Alternatively, you may wish to take part in one of our house quizzes, which always get the grey matter going!
4pm and it’s the inaugural “Black Pudding hurling” competition for all ages.
7pm guests are called to our Black Tie Gala Dinner Champagne and canapés reception followed by the gastronomic delights of our 6 course Gala Dinner menu. (Tables this evening are formal banquet style of 8 or more, dependent on party size.)
Remember your dancing shoes as our resident DJ helps all to trip the light fantastic into the wee small hours.
Tuesday 27th December 2011
