Christmas Breaks
Including deals exclusive to English Country Inns

'Tis the season to be jolly in England! Christmas time in the countryside is a delightful celebration filled with the warmth of roaring log fires, delectable feasts, and the finest wines. The air is tinged with festive merriment and laughter, creating a magical atmosphere. Picture yourself savouring mince pies and sipping mulled wine by the crackling fire, illuminated by the enchanting glow of the Christmas tree lights.

This Christmas, why not craft unforgettable memories by retreating to a cozy country inn or a welcoming hotel, surrounded by the embrace of your loved ones? Alternatively, you can choose to treat yourself and a special someone to an intimate holiday escape.

Many of these delightful establishments offer comprehensive Christmas itineraries that include sumptuous meals and exciting entertainment. Others opt for a more relaxed, laid-back holiday experience, prioritizing the pleasure of great company, gourmet cuisine, and personalized service. A traditional Christmas feast is typically part of the package, and you can find the complete details in the descriptions of each individual hotel.

Our 2023 Christmas offerings, some of which are exclusive to English Country Inns, are regularly updated, so remember to keep checking back for the latest updates and book your perfect holiday retreat.
