Ditch the office Christmas Party. Do This Instead.

Orrest Head House a big house for a big Christmas getawayChristmas for a big group

Another restaurant. Another set menu. Another table of twelve pretending to enjoy the crackers.

There’s a better idea.

Take one of our big houses in the Lake District for your Christmas party. Everyone gets their own bed. Nobody’s driving. And instead of a starter you didn’t order and a main course that arrived cold, you cook it yourselves.

The CEO on the starter. The FD on the main course. The MD on the dessert. Suddenly the most interesting conversation of the year isn’t about Q4 — it’s about whether the MD can actually bake.

Spoiler: it turns out they can.

Then the Secret Santa. Then a bar that never closes.

Our houses sleep 12 to 16 people. Big kitchens. Long dining tables. Some have open fires. Some have hot tubs. Some have a cinema downstairs when dinner’s done. Windermere village is two minutes away if anyone needs fresh air — or an escape route.

It’s a Christmas party people will actually talk about in January. For the right reasons.
