Monday – Christmas Eve
When you arrive at the hotel you can enjoy tea and mince pies while Santa’s little helpers take your luggage to your bedrooms. Settle in and relax and then meet up with everyone at 6.00pm for a pre-dinner drinks reception to get you in the festive spirit.
Dinner is served from 6.30pm. We offer a superb three course dinner followed by coffee. There are choices for each course including fish and vegetarian options.
After dinner enjoy an evening of festive music and sing along to your favourite Christmas songs!
Tuesday – Christmas Day
We wish you a Merry Christmas! Start Christmas Day with our traditional English breakfast. Before dinner meet up in the bar and for the good little boys and girls there will be a visit from Father Christmas with a gift for everyone. Ho! Ho! Ho! We will be preparing a traditional three course Christmas dinner for everyone. This
includes roast Dorset turkey with all the trimmings followed by our special Christmas pudding with brandy sauce. An alternative main course can be pre-ordered. We will create a truly special festive feeling with
crackers, Christmas decorations and music. After dinner we will continue to celebrate Christmas Day with a lively evening of music, dancing and festive fun.
Wednesday – Boxing Day
Start the day with another hearty breakfast then spend the day at your leisure in Bournemouth. In the evening enjoy an excellent three course dinner with coffee. After dinner we propose a more relaxed evening -
to give you a break between the partying on Christmas Day and New Years Eve. If you are coming as a group we will liaise with your group organiser and then let everyone else know the plan! For example we offer bingo, a quiz or maybe you would enjoy fancy dress or something arty crafty (everyone will be advised in advance so they can be prepared!)
Thursday – New Years Eve
In the evening we will have a special celebration to welcome the New Year with a sumptuous dinner followed by coffee. After dinner we will enjoy an evening of music for dancing – with hits from all the decades as well as line dancing and all the party favourites. We will welcome in the New Year (perhaps a little earlier than midnight!) with a glass of bubbly as well as party poppers and Auld Land Syne.
Friday – New Years Day
Enjoy another excellent breakfast then we will wish you a fond farewell with our very best wishes for the ‘real’ festive season.
