Is a party even a party without the chance to
be pampered in a top-class spa as well? As
part of the celebrations at Eastwell Manor,
there are Christmas spa pamper packages that
you can indulge in in addition to the parties
themselves, giving you a Christmas to really
remember for all the right reasons. Of course,
you don’t have to visit the spa or stay overnight
to have a great time at Eastwell Manor this
Christmas because there are all sorts of
alternative nights laid on too. It all kicks off
with the Christmas ball on 15th December.
This black tie event is a feast for all the senses;
there is amazing food, beginning with
Champagne and canapés, and live
entertainment. Or, you can book your own
private party instead depending on how private
you want to keep your yuletide celebrations.
Don’t forget the fantastic ice rink, available
from the 1st December too! Gorgeous Chilston Park has three different
Christmas party packages to choose from,
each one offering something exciting. Package
one is a three-course meal, casino and disco
until 1am. Package two adds bacon rolls at
midnight and Champagne cocktails and
canapés to the mix. Package three is an opulent
winter masked ball – arrive on a red carpet
complete with a photographer before
Champagne cocktails and canapés precede a
four-course gourmet meal that finishes with
coffee and, of course, mince pies. There will
be casino tables, a band and a disco, plus prizes
for the best masks. Christmas is a magical time as we all know,
so it makes perfect sense that your Christmas
party should be held at a magical venue, too.
At Houdini's there are two locations to choose
from: St Peter's Street, Canterbury; and High
Street, Broadstairs. Whichever you choose,
you and your party guests will receive the
same great service and marvellous magic
show to entertain you. There will be plenty of
cocktails too, and you can even hire the venues
exclusively for your party if you want to,
although minimum numbers apply.
Price: £42 per person, package one; £66,
package two; £75, package three. Canterbury Cathedral Lodge // Canterbury
www.canterburycathedrallodge.org
Price: from £49 per person for the Christmas
spa evening; £85 per person for the Christmas
ball. The price of the private party is bespoke
and so will depend on how far you’d like to
push the boat out.

night long.
