Christmas & New Year

Over Christmas and New Year The Nare is decked in festive garlands and hosts traditional house parties

Over Christmas and New Year The Nare is decked in festive garlands and our traditional house parties make the most of the season. With the essential ingredients of log fires crackling in the grates, Cornish Afternoon cream teas with Chef's special Christmas cake and home-made mince pies every day, wonderful seafood buffets, and formal dinner dances in the evenings, not forgetting The Nare's comfort and charm, this is the place to celebrate Christmas and New Year.
