Christmas Eve

Rooms are available from 2pm onwards. Relax and enjoy a delicious afternoon tea in any of our lovely drawing rooms or by the fire in the bar from 3pm. Dinner is served between 7pm and 9pm. Mulled wine and canapés begin your evening before enjoying your dinner prepared by our Chef Patron Richie Herkes and his team. Emerald Toogood our harpist will provide gentle entertainment during dinner and any requests are more than welcome.

Christmas Day

A traditional country house breakfast will be served from 8am-10am in the restaurant or a continental breakfast of croissants and pastries in the comfort of your own room. A walk in the grounds or to the nearby village of Burrington is highly recommended to build up your appetite for lunch.  The sumptuous 4 course meal will be served from 12.30pm in our restaurant and it’s at this time the frivolities take hold!

The afternoon is yours to relax and recover! – We have a no service period between 4.30pm - 5.30pm when the staff take their well-earned break to enjoy their lunch.

Tea and Christmas cake will be served from 5.30pm (just in case you are still hungry).
Dinner this evening takes the form of an impressive buffet complete with dressed salmon and delicious cold meats, but is still informal enough for you to enjoy your meal in the restaurant or take it upstairs as room service with a bottle of wine.

Boxing Day

After the indulgencies of the day before, breakfast will be served from 9am to 11am leaving you free to go and explore this beautiful part of North Devon. A lovely packed lunch can be provided for the day at an additional charge. Afternoon tea is served from 3pm to sample again some more of Richies’ delicious cakes and pastries.

The Boxing Night Dinner is served from 7pm.
