Exclusive Use

We have hosted some memorable parties for guests who want the use of our hotel and bistro exclusively with an overnight stay.

With our team dedicated to your stay and the entire hotel reserved for you and your guests, the Gallivant becomes your very own ‘beach house’ with our amazing beach on your doorstep.

With 18 bedrooms we can accommodate up to 40 guests overnight and can arrange additional accommodation in delightful New England style cottages a short walk from our hotel.

Preparing great local food is our passion and this forms an integral part of the whole experience. Trevor Hambley has returned to his country roots after many years of working alongside Marco Pierre White and Jean Christophe Novelli and will oversee the feasting dinner you choose.

Classically trained, his Private Parties Feasting menu relies on the quality of ingredients that we source from artisan suppliers and family fishermen and farmers who live and work within 30 miles of us – a sourcing policy we genuinely strive to attain for over 80% of the fresh ingredients we use.
