Christmas Day Lunch – Thursday, 25th December 2025 A Fun-Filled, Family-Friendly Christmas at Inn on the Lake
This Christmas, let us take care of everything while you focus on enjoying the day with your loved ones. Our renowned Christmas Day Lunch at Inn on the Lake is not just a meal – it’s a family experience packed with festive fun, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime.
We’ve gone the extra mile to make sure every member of the family, from the youngest to the oldest, has a day full of joy and celebration. Our three-course festive meal with all the trimmings is just the beginning. After you’ve indulged in the delicious food, get ready for a visit from Father Christmas himself, who will bring a personal touch with handpicked presents tailored to the age and gender of each child. Plus, Santa will be available for photos in his Christmas grotto, so you can capture that special festive moment with your little ones.
We don’t just stop at great food and presents – we’ve designed a fun, lively atmosphere for all ages. Our resident DJ will keep the festive spirit alive with a selection of upbeat and family-friendly music. Whether it's the Macarena, Saturday Night, or the Cha Cha Slide, everyone – from toddlers to grandparents – will be up and dancing to the holiday tunes. And for those who love the magic of Disney, there’s even a Frozen sing-along to get everyone in the Christmas spirit.
