Christmas 2025

Christmas in a country house, where tradition and cosiness combine to create a grand, yet welcoming stay. Where you’ll wake up in a historic home surrounded by festive favourites, lovingly decorated by our elves, our sprawling grounds outside waiting to be discovered.
Royal Berkshire comes alive at Christmas. From our rooms with space for all the family to the crackling fireplace in The Polo Bar, treats from Santa and a traditional lunch with all the trimmings (and then some), Royal Berkshire epitomises cosy Christmas in the country.
However you choose to spend the festive season, every part of your stay at Royal Berkshire will be sprinkled with magic.
We pull out all the stops so no-one is left peeling the spuds or finding a way to fit the family round the table, letting everyone enjoy a well-deserved rest at this very special time of year.
‘Twas the night before Christmas
Today’s the day you arrive at Royal Berkshire and the day the festivities really begin. Check in from 3pm and settle into your new home for Christmas. You’ll find stockings waiting, and if you’re staying in one of our suites, you’ll even have your very own Christmas tree.
Join us for dinner in Fork followed by live entertainment. If you’d like to go to midnight mass, let us know and we’ll organise a taxi for you.
Wednesday 24th December 2025
From 3pm
We welcome you to arrive from 3pm to get settled into your room and relax in your new home for Christmas.
From 6pm
Join us for a glass of fizz in The Polo Bar before a delicious three-course dinner with half a bottle of wine per person is served in Fork restaurant.
8pm
Once bellies are full, take a seat in the bar and listen to the crooning sounds of a live performance from So Sinatra.
Make sure to pop by reception before you put the little ones to bed so they can pick up their carrots and mince pies for Santa.
“It’s Christmaaaaaaaaaas!”
It’s the big day itself and time to truly indulge, relax, and make memories with your loved ones. At Royal Berkshire, we’ll be pulling out all the stops to create a magical Christmas so all you need to do is sit back and enjoy.
Our chefs will be whipping up breakfast and a Christmas feast with all the trimmings. In the afternoon send the kids off to our gingerbread house decorating while you curl up with a good book, or sit in front of the fire watching the King’s Speech.
Thursday 25th December 2025
8am
After delving into your stockings, join us for a hearty breakfast in Fork before the days events begin.
From 12pm
If you are joining us for just one night, arrive in time for your festive lunch. Meet us for Ridgeview English sparkling wine before taking a seat in Fork for a Christmas lunch with all the trimmings and served with half a bottle of house wine per person.
Take the afternoon at your leisure. If you’d like some fresh air after lunch, why not wrap up warm and explore our extensive grounds? Or if you’re feeling competitive, we’ve got lots of games in our games room, plus the kids can take part in a treasure hunt or get creative with our gingerbread house building and decorating too.
From 7pm
Feeling peckish? A light buffet and wine will be served in Fork. Then take a seat in the bar and reflect on the day before climbing the stairs to bed.
The next day
On Boxing Day, enjoy one last hearty breakfast before heading home with a lifetime of memories. Please checkout by 11am.
