Christmas at Meldrum House

There is nowhere quite like a country house at Christmas and we're delighted to announce that our Christmas Programme for 2026  is now available. This year, retreat to the warmth of Meldrum House and experience the season at a gentler pace with our two or three night festive escapes. 

Stroll the frost tipped lawns, sink into an armchair in front of a crackling log fire and enjoy exceptional dining in exquisite surroundings with our two or three night Christmas stays.

CHRISTMAS EVE

Arrive to a warm welcome and a traditional cream tea served in the Drawing Room between 2pm and 4pm.  As evening falls, gather for a glass of champagne and handcrafted canapés followed by a specially curated three course Christmas Eve dinner, marking the beginning of a truly memorable stay.

CHRISTMAS DAY

Awake to the excitement and anticipation of Christmas morning and begin the day with a leisurely Scottish breakfast, before spending the morning exchanging gifts and spending cherished time with loved ones. At lunchtime toast the day with welcome glass of champagne ahead of our traditional Christmas Day lunch. Showcasing the finest seasonal flavours, this three-course feast is the highlight of the festive season. As dusk falls, unwind with a selection of sandwiches and savouries served in the relaxed surroundings of the Cave Bar and Drawing Room.

BOXING DAY

Ease into the day with another leisurely breakfast before spending the day entirely at your own pace. Perhaps enjoy a stroll through the grounds, practice your swing at the driving range or simply revel in the luxury of doing very little. In the evening, return to the restaurant for a beautifully prepared dinner and another evening of relaxed country house hospitality.

27TH DECEMBER

Enjoy a full Scottish breakfast and a last lingering moment to soak in the festive spirit before departure.
