Christmas and New Year 2011

Once again the festive season beckons. Beliefs, expectations and intentions may vary, but many of us make something of this special time of year. We hope to see you at Gilpin soon -warmest regards from the Cunliffe family and Gilpin team.
 
Join us over the Christmas and New Year period and enjoy a true Lakeland festive season, with all the peace, tranquillity and relaxation you could wish for. In an atmosphere redolent of an elegant, comfortable, private house, but which leaves you in no doubt that you are in a friendly, luxurious hotel, this is simply a haven of unhurried pampering. Prices for the festive season are per person per stay, and in addition to the festivities mentioned, include accommodation, five course dinner, full English breakfast and VAT.

We do still have some availability for Christmas and the In Between Break - please give us a call or email if you would like further details as these are not bookable online.

Dining at Gilpin over Christmas and New Year

As always, we are open to non-residents for all meals. Unless a menu has been pre-arranged for a party, the lunch menu is à la carte or 3-courses at £27. Lunch can be taken in the restaurant, or for a more informal meal relax in the lounge, bar and terraces. We are of course also open to non-residents for all meals, including our Christmas Day feast, Boxing Day lunch, and our New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner, with live music in the Champagne Bar afterwards.

We have private dining rooms which seat either twelve, twenty or twenty-six people, and will happily devise personalised menus – for lunch, dinner, afternoon tea, even breakfast! We are happy to take orders on the day for up to ten in a party, for up to fifteen people we do ask guests to pre-order, and for parties of over sixteen people our chef will create a bespoke set menu for you.
