Christmas at The Carlton

Family & Friends, Come Party and Celebrate

Christmas is a special time of year in North Devon. For another year, the team at The Carlton Hotel is excited to present a variety of festive events and stays to meet all your seasonal needs.

Scroll down for more information on all our activities including our three or four night Christmas Break complete with our superb Christmas Day Lunch and entertainment.

Join us for our Christmas Party Nights, where you’ll enjoy exceptional value, combining food, drink and dancing. We’re running these ticket only events over the weekends of 6-7, 13-14 and 20-21 of December.

And our Festive Menu is available throughout December for both lunch and dinner, offering a choice of two or three courses, all served in our themed Brasserie dining room.

Following our introduction of our Festive Afternoon Tea last year, we are pleased to say that this will continue in 2024. Book online now to secure your spot.

Looking ahead to the New Year, we have an amazing three-night break and our Gala Dinner and Dance to welcome 2025 in style.
