Festive Breaks
The Old Hall Hotel offers two and three night festive breaks for guests to enjoy all the magic of Christmas without any of the hard work!
Christmas Eve: After a 2pm check in, you’ll enjoy scones, tea & coffee and mulled wine in The Old Hall’s cosy lounge. Discover the sights of Buxton during the afternoon, before returning to a delicious dinner in our Restaurant which overlooks the Pavilion Gardens. Burbage Band will entertain guests with Christmas Carols, and if you wish to do so, you can attend midnight mass at St Johns Church which is a three minute walk away.
Christmas Day: Relish the decadence of breakfast in bed! Enjoy fresh orange juice, bacon sandwiches, croissants, conserves and freshly ground coffee whilst opening your presents. After breakfast, it’s time to promenade. Take a wintry walk around the Pavilion Gardens, or ask at reception for information on the three mile walk around Buxton to discover the Georgian splendour of this historic Spa town. Once back at the hotel, you’ll enjoy homemade canapes and a welcome glass of Bucks Fizz, whilst choosing your Christmas lunch from our appetising traditional menu. After lunch, why not take to the games room to enjoy a selection of board games and Christmas quizzes. If you’re looking for some quiet time, we’ll be screening a festive film in our TV lounge where you can enjoy a weel-earned snooze. Those with an active mind can take up the challenge of The Old Hall Hotel’s Treasure Hunt – just for fun. Late afternoon sees tea and Christmas Cake served just in time for The Queen’s Speech at 3pm, and between 7.30pm and 9.30pm, there will be a Ploughman’s, Charcuterie and Fish Board, followed by dessert, before another festive film in our TV lounge.
Boxing Day: After a restful night’s sleep, you can enjoy a delicious breakfast served in our Restaurant, followed by the Boxing Day concert over in the Pavilion Gardens from 11am-1pm. You’ll be welcomed back to the Hotel with a glass of hot mulled wine before a light buffet lunch is served. In the afternoon, you’ll be treated to a classic pantomime performance over at the Opera House. This year, guests can look forward to a fantastic performance of Dick Whittington with seats in the Dress Circle. Upon your return, you’ll enjoy a glass of chilled Prosecco in The Old Hall Hotel’s Wine Bar from 7pm onwards, prior to Boxing Day Night Dinner which will be served from 7.30pm in the Restaurant.
