Magical Christmas stays at Royal Berkshire

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 welcome you to arrive from 3pm to get settled into your room and relaxing in your new home for Christmas.

From 6pm

Join us for a drink ahead of dinner, which will be served in our restaurant, Fork, along with half a bottle of wine per person.

8pm to 10pm

After dinner, enjoy 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.

Christmas Eve

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 and if you’d like to go to midnight mass, let us know and we’ll organise a taxi for you.

Christmas Day

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. There’ll be plenty of time to flex your table tennis muscles, or send the kids off to our gingerbread house and decorating while you curl up with a good book, or sit in front of the fire watching the King’s speech. Then in the evening, gather up the troops and sit down to cinema night.

After delving into your stockings, join us for a hearty breakfast.

From 12pm

Meet us for Ridgeview English sparkling wine before the main event. A Christmas lunch will be served with half a bottle of wine, and Santa will be popping by with presents for the kids.

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 table tennis and lots of games in our games room, plus the kids can take part in a treasure hunt or try their baking skills with our gingerbread house building and decorating too.

From 3pm to 5pm

Sit down and relax to live piano music from Paul Grainger.

From 7pm

Feeling peckish? Join us for a light buffet and wine. Popcorn at the ready! We’ll be showing festive flicks in Aqua room.

Boxing Day

Today’s the day we say goodbye. Enjoy one last breakfast before heading home with a lifetime of memories.

And if you’re not ready to head home just yet, enjoy a delicious Boxing Day lunch before you go
