Christmas/New Year Packages 2007

Christmas Package 2007

Christmas Eve

A log fire beckons you to relax. Perhaps you would like to start with our seasonal afternoon tea prior to the commencement of the festivities.

Prior to dinner we invite you to a champagne reception at 7:00pm. Our Gala Dinner will be served between 7:30 and 8:30pm after which you can relax in the lounges with coffee.

For those wishing to attend church, a midnight service wil be held at Appin Church just 2.5 miles from the hotel.

Christmas Day

Wake up on Christmas day and enjoy a Bucks Fizz with our full Scottish breakfast.

After breakfast or indeed anytime in the morning, why not join in our treasure hunt around Port Appin which promises to be both fun and challenging. This shoulod usually take between an hour and an hour and a half - however, if you get in to difficulties, we have the full resourses of the emergency services at our disposal! The results of the Treasure Hunt will be announced at about 2:00pm in the lounges with a prize for the winner.

For those guests that cannot wait for Christmas Lunch, a light sandwich buffet will be available in the lounges from around 12.30pm giving you sufficient time to burn off some energy (perhaps a good book in front of one of the fires!) prior to the main event. And so to the main event - our Christmas Lunch - which will commence at 4:00pm. The menu will be chosen near to the time but in any event will be fairly traditional.

After dinner it is time to relax with a good book or perhaps one of the family games. A light sandwich snack will be laid out in the lounge for you to help yourself at any time during the evening.

Boxing Day

Enjoy a leisurely full Scottish breakfast with the day being at your leisure. Why not enjoy one of the many walks or simply relax by one of the open fires with a good book.

After dinner you have just got time for a short rest before our piper leads the procession to the village hall (100 yards) where our New Year Ceilidh will be commencing from 10pm.
