Bailiffgate Hotel Christmas 2025

Celebrate the magic of Christmas at Bailiffgate Hotel, where warm hospitality meets understated luxury in the heart of Alnwick.

Nestled amid Northumberland's stunning landscapes, Bailiffgate Hotel offers a festive yet inviting retreat.

Surrounded by charming countryside, dramatic coastline, and just a stone's throw from Alnwick Castle and its rich history, the hotel is the perfect place to unwind and explore the region's timeless beauty.

At Bailiffgate, Christmas is celebrated not with crowds or noise, but with delicious seasonal dining, live music and timeless elegance.

Christmas Eve

• Begin your Christmas retreat with a glass of Champagne and a seasonal cream tea - a gentle welcome to the celebrations ahead;
• As evening draws in, delight in a seven-course tasting menu masterfully created by Head Chef, Paul Blakey;
• Later, take a lantern-lit stroll through Alnwick’s peaceful streets to Midnight Mass at St Michael’s, before returning to the warmth of the fire where hot toddies and warm mince pies await.

Christmas Day

• Wake to a leisurely breakfast and the peaceful joy of Christmas morning;
• Spend the morning by the fire, share stories with fellow guests, or take a refreshing walk along the Northumberland coast;
• In the afternoon, indulge in elegant canapés before enjoying a showstopping Christmas lunch with live music softly setting the tone;
• As the evening unfolds, unwind in the Garden Room or Motte & Bailey with a relaxed artisanal charcuterie supper, perfectly paired with a local Ad Gefrin tipple.

Boxing Day

• Savour a lazy morning with breakfast in bed, or join the team downstairs where the fire crackles and freshly brewed coffee fills the air;
• For those extending their stay, spend the day embracing the slower rhythm of Northumberland, explore coastal walks or simply relax before your evening meal.

27 December

• When the time comes to leave, the concierge will bring your car to the door, help with your luggage, and send you off with a warm smile, until next time.
