Christmas at The Cartford has a magic all its own. The fire’s lit, the lights are glowing, and the inn hums with the quiet joy of the season. Old friends return, new memories are made - and if you’re passing our way this Christmas, we’d love you to be part of it.
Over the festive season, we’re keeping things flexible. Alongside our Festive Set Menu, you can still order from our à la carte menu or try one of our festive specials.
Our Festive Set Menu runs from Friday 28th November to Tuesday 23rd December, priced at £30 for two courses or £38 for three. Pre-orders are required 24 hours in advance, and it’s available throughout the season, excluding Saturday evenings.

Our Festive Afternoon Tea is the perfect way to spend a crisp December afternoon. Enjoy a selection of freshly baked cakes, scones, and savouries, all with a seasonal twist. Served from 1st to 23rd December.
LEARN MORE
Christmas at The Cartford goes beyond the Festive Set Menu. Throughout December, we’ll be serving a range of seasonal specials, including our much-loved festive sandwich, which never fails to cause a stir.
Our bar takes on a festive spirit of its own at Christmas. Think winter spices, rich liqueurs, citrus, and a hint of sparkle — the kind of drinks made for cosy corners and good company.
The best kind of Christmas is one you don’t have to rush. With our Christmas At Ours package, you can stay with us over the festive period and enjoy a little extra comfort - a welcome cocktail, a hamper in your room, a three-course dinner for two, and breakfast overlooking the River Wyre. All for just £80 per couple, added to your room rate.
Celebrate the season in style with a Christmas party at The Cartford. Whether it’s a festive get-together with colleagues or a dinner party with friends, enjoy exceptional food, warm hospitality, and a setting made for celebration, with the choice of our restaurant or private dining space.
Whether you’re treating a friend, family member, or your team, a Cartford Inn gift voucher is a present worth finding under the tree.
We take care of everything - simply choose the amount, personalise your message, and even add a video greeting if you like. We’ll post it directly to their door (or yours, if you’d prefer to hand it over yourself).
Left it late? No problem - we can send an instant e-voucher straight to their inbox.
Our Christmas Shop is open, filled with everything you need to make the season easy and delicious. Our cook-at-home range features pre-prepared festive dishes made by our chefs, so you can serve Cartford-quality food at home and impress your guests. You’ll also find bespoke hampers packed with homemade Cartford favourites from our deli, TOTI.
Join us this November and December for our popular festive wreath workshops, a Cartford tradition full of seasonal charm. With expert guidance, you’ll craft a handmade wreath that’s uniquely yours.
