An all-in-one festive break that combines the magic of Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Eve. Celebrate ahead of the holidays with a stay packed full of engaging activities, local sights, shows and festive foodie moments.
Day 1 We make our way to North Wales, with suitable breaks along the way. We are welcomed with festive mince pies and a glass of mulled wine or non-alcoholic bellini. Tonight, we celebrate Christmas Eve with a wonderful dinner and entertainment.
Day 2 We start Christmas Day with a morning visit to Chester Christmas Market. With 70 traders dotted around the Town Hall, forum and new arcade, selling a charming mix of handmade crafts, jewellery and stocking fillers. The afternoon is free to enjoy the many available activities at your hotel before enjoying a full Christmas Dinner with all the trimmings followed by live entertainment and maybe even a visit from Santa.
Day 3 We take a relaxing half-day tour though the spectacular scenery of the Snowdonia National Park. We return for our Boxing Day dinner and a special evening concert featuring soprano Emily Haig, with crossover pop and rock classics, musical showstoppers and immediately recognisable classical arias.
Day 4 A half day morning visit to Llandudno. You could follow the White Rabbit to see sights that inspired Lewis Carrol or take in the charming local shops and classic pier. The rest of the day is free at the hotel, and this evening we celebrate the New Year in style with music and entertainment.
Day 5 Departing our hotel after breakfast, we make our way southwards, arriving in the local area late afternoon.
