A decadent dinner, a cavalcade of Christmassy puddings, and a night to remember!
Step into a world of festive splendour and culinary excess at our Christmas Pudding Parade, a glittering seasonal spectacular where the roast is golden, the company merry, and the puddings? Oh, the puddings!
This is no ordinary dinner. Each dessert is paraded into the Music Room with pomp and ceremony by our esteemed Pudding Master, David Clayton, before being delivered straight to your table.
No queuing, no waiting, just pudding theatre with a flourish, followed by unlimited helpings of festive indulgence.
Your evening begins with a warming cup of parsnip soup, gently sweetened with honey and lifted with sage, a perfect winter whisper to awaken your appetite.

The Pudding Parade
Once your plate is cleared, the lights dim, the music swells, and the parade begins. A cavalcade of perfect puddings will glide through the room and arrive directly at your table. Feast on as many as you like: yes, you really can try them all!
