The perfect Christmas Getaway
Enjoy a traditional Christmas in the beautiful surroundings of Middlethorpe Hall & Spa, a William and Mary country house hotel on the outskirts of the historic City of York. Christmas at Middlethorpe Hall will welcome you with roaring fires and carol singers, a perfect setting to celebrate your festive season.
Start your Christmas Eve by having a quintessentially English afternoon tea which will be served in the magnificent 18th century Drawing Room. Later in the evening enjoy Champagne and canapés, soft carol singing by the local Choir before a superb three-course dinner served in the Oak and Pineapple Rooms. If you wish, you may attend midnight mass in St Andrew’s Parish Church or at York Minister and will be welcomed with Port and mince pies upon your return.
Christmas Day is a comfortable and splendid affair. A traditional Bucks Fizz reception will be held before the luxurious four-course Christmas luncheon. There will be a Champagne reception mid afternoon as well as a light dinner buffet in the evening. Boxing Day can be spent leisurely by the pool at the Spa or treating oneself to a relaxing treatment. There is afternoon tea and in the evening, a Champagne farewell reception.
Standing in 20 acres of its own award-winning gardens and with its open fireplaces and carollers, you will find a truly traditional English Christmas atmosphere in the most beautiful surroundings.
