Spend a magical Christmas at the iconic 15th century Swan at Lavenham Hotel & Spa, in the heart of Suffolk.
The luxurious half-timbered hotel with its oak beamed interiors, roaring log fires, cosy nooks and delicious food, is offering a special three-night Christmas package from Thursday, 24th December priced from £725 per person based on two sharing a classic double/twin room.
Arriving on Christmas Eve you will be warmly welcomed with a glass of hot mulled wine while you settle into your cosy room before enjoying a light afternoon tea in front of the open fire. Later mingle with fellow guests over champagne and canapés as the local choir sing carols and sit down to a sumptuous four-course candlelit dinner. Afterwards you can join local villagers at Midnight Mass in the beautifully decorated Lavenham Church of St Peter and St Paul, before returning to the hotel for a late night glass of mulled wine and mince pies.
A traditional five-course lunch with all the trimmings will be served from 12noon in the AA two rosette Gallery restaurant on Christmas Day; and for those who are still hungry there’s a festive buffet in the evening. On Boxing Day lunch and a candlelit supper with live entertainment are also included plus an optional guided walk around the historic medieval village of Lavenham, which will be seasonally decorated with greenery, festive lights and a huge Christmas tree.
