Candles around the spa
The guests who I think enjoy Christmas and New Year the most at Grayshott are those who love all the traditional festivities and also want to relax and unwind at the same time. The two don't usually go together! And that is the secret success of the spa.
Hosted country house party
I want Christmas and New Year at Grayshott to feel like a hosted country house party, with the opportunity to slink away and take some time for oneself or enjoy the spa facilities when you don't want to join in.
Becoming a second home
I love greeting guests on arrival as I visibly see their shoulders relax when they cross the threshold. Lots of guests return here each festive season and treat us like a second home. New guests quickly find that whilst we are situated in rather a grand house, the atmosphere is relaxing and the staff are very friendly.
With all the trimmings
It is a wonderfully civilised and traditional experience with a 20 foot Christmas tree, turkey for lunch, afternoon tea in the drawing room and even a trip to the pantomime on Boxing Day for those on our Christmas break and a piper at midnight, live entertainment and a champagne toast for those with us at New Year. Dipping in and out of activities and being only as sociable as you please, you can also spend time in the pool, taking a massage or walking outside in our 47 acres.
A real break
It is all about being taken care of, taking time out and de-stressing, which is really what Grayshott does best for guests. And I think most guests do leave us refreshed and relaxed after their festive break - unlike those who ring us off the hook on January 2nd, very keen to book in and recover from a frantic and exhausting Christmas time at home!
