Seasonal Creative Events

Get into the festive spirit with a choice of seasonal workshops at the stunning Gilpin Lake House.

Both events include expert-led tuition, a delicious festive afternoon tea and a glass of mulled wine. From £90 per person.

Twixmas

Take a break from the festive rush and retreat to Gilpin in the post-Christmas lull. Here, guests can savour peaceful moments, indulge in exceptional hospitality and enjoy the tranquillity of the Lake District. The three-night Gilpin Twixmas break includes a leisurely stay with breakfast each morning, and plenty of time to enjoy Gilpin’s restaurants, private spa facilities and the surrounding winter landscape. Whether it’s a walk through the fells, a long lunch or some time spent unwinding in a private hot tub, Twixmas at Gilpin is all about taking things a little slower before the New Year begins. A Twixmas escape costs from £1,419 based on two people sharing a Classic Room with breakfast.
