What a fantastic place. The best Christmas I’ve had in a long time and the food is so gorgeous and the staff so lovely and attentive we felt like we’d died and gone to heaven.

"Wild" Christmas

Christmas Eve

Thursday 24th December 2026

Once you have settled into your room, the perfect way to begin your festive celebrations is to meet with our resident birds of prey from our friends at Lake District Falconry.

This afternoon, we invite you to sample a glass of mulled wine and enjoy a light Afternoon Tea in our Grill & Smokehouse Restaurant.

Following this, why not treat yourself to a drink in the lounge by one of our open fires. Alternatively, why not explore the village of Bowness-on-Windermere - an ideal opportunity for any last-minute Christmas shopping.

Tonight, following a glass of bubbly and a canapé or two, we will be serving a ‘Hog and Ale buffet’ dinner. Our popular Wild Quiz then follows with prizes for winners and bribes gratefully accepted by our ‘Wild Quiz Master’!

A nightcap by one of our roaring fires will round off what we are sure will be a most enjoyable and memorable Christmas Eve celebration.

 

Christmas Day

Friday 25th December 2026

A very special guest will be waiting to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and offer a chilled glass of something bubbly prior to a hearty Lakeland Grill. You are then invited to join Adam for our archery competition in the woods.

Return for a warming glass of mulled wine and then join us for the main event of the day: our traditional Christmas Day lunch that our brigade of chefs have been busy preparing all morning.

This afternoon, guests have the opportunity to relax, enjoy some of the gifts that Father Christmas has delivered and soak up the atmosphere that only Christmas at Wild Boar Estate can bring.

Tonight, begins with a delicious Yuletide buffet, and no Christmas is complete without our Gingerbread house making competition and this year is no exception! Following 2025’s winning entry, the gauntlet has been well and truly thrown down and prizes await this year’s most eye-catching creations. Alternatively festive films and games are accessible in the wonderful private ‘Undermillbeck’, or perhaps just take the relaxing option to sit back in front of one of our roaring fires as Christmas Day 2026 draws to a close.

 

Boxing Day

Saturday 26th December 2026

The perfect ending to your Christmas escape begins with a hearty Traditional Cumbrian Breakfast, followed by a fond farewell and our heartfelt wishes for a joyful year ahead.

If you would like to extend your festive stay we have arranged preferential rates for this night so please do not hesitate to speak to us!

 

We stayed for the Christmas package and cannot fault a thing. There were so many special little touches that made this break so perfect.
