New Year break
Three-nights with dinner and New Year trimmings.
Seasonal feasting, floating in the pool, fireside moments, taking to the ice rink. Countdown on the Living Space deck as the champagne flows and fireworks light the sky, all rounded off with a New Year's Day paddle, swim, stomp or skate to start 2025 off right.
What to expect from your three-night break
Seasonal feasting, floating in the pool, fireside moments, taking to the ice rink. Countdown on the Living Space deck as the champagne flows and fireworks light the sky, all rounded off with a New Year's Day paddle, swim, stomp or skate to start 2025 off right.
30 December
Mulled wine and mince pies as you arrive, shrug off the Christmas chaos and let us take the reins. Children can head to Kids’ Zone for festive action, while you unwind in the pool, hot tub or with a good book in the library. Lace up your ice skates and head to the rink, get wetsuited up for a star-gazing swim before the children head to Kids' Zone for the Science Show.
New Year’s Eve
Breakfast waffles set you up to explore Ullswater on foot or by paddleboard. Take to the ice with ice-skating sessions throughout the day. Children can join the Little Chefs Pizza School in the Glasshouse to make their lunch. Head back for a three-course dinner in Rampsbeck, live music and dancing until the big countdown. Drinks on the terrace and a firework display as midnight strikes.
New Year’s Day
Head to the jetty for a New Year dip, or settle in with a hair-of-the-dog in the library. Watch from the deck as the children get stuck into games and archery by the shore. Will you muster the energy for an ice-skating session, a walk through the foothills, rafted canoeing or stand-up paddle boarding on Ullswater, or will the fell-view hot tub and deep sofas get your vote? As the day turns to evening, children can head to Kids' Zone for games night while live music sounds out The Living Space.
2 January
Wake up to fresh air, lake views and one last swim in the pool before taking your time over a lazy breakfast and bidding us farewell, until next year.
