Christmas Day at Cave Castle

Christmas Day, Done Properly.

There’s something about Christmas Day at the Castle.

The grounds are quiet, the dining room is dressed, and for a few hours, the world outside can wait. This is what the day is supposed to feel like.

Join us on Thursday 25 December for a four-course Christmas feast in the grand surroundings of Cave Castle. From the moment you arrive, welcomed with a glass of bubbly at your table, to the final cup of tea or coffee and homemade chocolate truffles, we’ll take care of everything so you don’t have to.

The menu has been put together with care, built around the season and the setting. Proper Christmas food, done properly. Children are very welcome, with smaller portions available, and little ones will receive a soft drink on arrival in place of the bubbly.

£115 per adult | £62 per child under 11
