Celebrate in style at wonderful hotels across the Channel

Celebrating Christmas or New Year abroad in the comfort of one of our welcoming, family-run hotels helps to make the occassion extra special. Christmas is generally relaxed, the focus of the celebrations being a special meal, usually on Christmas Eve. For New Year, you can choose between lively celebrations or more intimate affairs, with both usually featuring lengthy gastronomic feasts.

Our Christmas breaks are based on a minimum 3-night stay, while New Year breaks are based on a 2-night stay. Stays at country hotels include dinner and breakfast (including a celebratory meal), and a return Channel crossing with P&O Ferries between Dover and Calais. Breaks to Honfleur, Lille, Bruges and Arras include bed & breakfast, a celebratory meal, and a return P&O Ferries crossing Dover to Calais. We also give prices for travel by Eurostar (and onward rail in the case of Bruges) to Lille and Bruges.

Christmas & New Year in Bruges

Oud Huis de PeellaertBruges is a beautiful city in any season, but takes on a particularly magical atmosphere during the festive season. Hotels Prisenhof, Aragon and Oud Huis de Peellaert are open for both Christmas and New Year.

To mark the occasion, we include a lengthy celebratory meal at our favourite restaurants. At Christmas, savour refined Flemish cuisine in the Bistro de Pompe, whose owners we have worked with for many years.

For New Year only we offer the handsome, wood-panelled Verdi where the evening promises a lengthy, gastronomic feast followed by dancing until very late. You can also choose to enjoy your Christmas or New Year celebration at the atmospheric and elegant Kardinaalshof, for which a supplement is payable.

Our Christmas breaks are based on a minimum 3-night stay, while New Year breaks are based on a 2-night stay. Prices include bed & breakfast, a celebratory meal, and a return P&O Ferries crossing Dover to Calais. We also give prices for travel by Eurostar and onward rail.

Skiing and Much More (Christmas & New Year in the mountains)

We feature a wide and varied range of high-quality hotels in our Skiing and Much More programme, with festive holidays in the snowy mountains a speciality. What could be more magical than Christmas or New Year in Finland, Norway, Austria, Italy, France or Switzerland? We particularly recommend the Hotel Victoria in Switzerland's Bernese Oberland, which offers special 5-night Christmas breaks, and the Hotel Wiesenhof in the Austrian Tyrol.

Alternatively, why not get into the holiday spirit with a Christmas market break? We offer breaks to Lucerne and Salzburg, where you can experience the truly magical atmosphere in the run-up to Christmas.
