Festive Lunch Parties

Our Festive Lunch is available from Saturday 22nd November 2025.

Celebrate together this Christmas with a Festive Lunch at Merewood. Make this Christmas one to remember and gather your friends, family, or colleagues to celebrate the festive season with a delicious three-course meal served in our charming Arboreal Restaurant, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking views over Lake Windermere and the surrounding fells.

Enjoy our chefs beautifully prepared seasonal dishes crafted with the finest local ingredients, perfectly capturing the flavours of Christmas. With space for groups of 10 or more, it’s the ideal setting for festive get-togethers – whether for a work do or a leisurely pre-Christmas catch-up with loved ones.
