Award-winning North Lakes Hotel and Spa in Penrith – part of Daniel Thwaites – has launched its selection of Christmas activities for 2023. Whether it’s a chance to get the family together, a festive catch up with friends, or a romantic winter getaway for two, you can trust North Lakes Hotel and Spa to give you a merry time this Christmas.

Christmas package – the ultimate festive retreat

North Lakes Hotel and Spa’s ready-made Christmas packages provide the ultimate festive getaway – minus the stress of planning.

On Christmas Eve, arrive at leisure to the warmth of the roaring log fires and twinkling Christmas trees, enjoy a delicious afternoon tea in FYR restaurant and bar, then take the opportunity for an afternoon of relaxation before enjoying a decadent evening meal.

As Christmas Day begins, start the special day with a traditional English breakfast and a glass of champagne. The five-course Christmas lunch begins with a champagne and canapé reception, followed by a sumptuous menu and a visit from Father Christmas. At 3pm, watch the King’s speech accompanied by Christmas cake and coffee.

As Boxing Day rolls around, start the day with a hearty Cumbrian breakfast before spending the day at leisure. For those wanting something more active, enjoy a walk around Ullswater, or instead choose to relax in the hotel’s spa pool. On return, the North Lakes Hotel and Spa’s fires will be roaring, with the bar and lounges providing the perfect place to relax and enjoy family time playing board games. There’ll even be an afternoon screening of Christmas classics in its very own ‘cinema’ room…complete with ice cream and popcorn.
