Christmas stays
Magical Christmas stays at Royal Berkshire
Christmas in a country house, where tradition and cosiness combine to create a grand, yet welcoming stay. Where you’ll wake up in a historic home surrounded by festive favourites, lovingly decorated by our elves, our sprawling grounds outside waiting to be discovered.
Royal Berkshire comes alive at Christmas. From our rooms with space for all the family to the crackling fireplace in The Polo Bar, treats from Santa and a traditional lunch with all the trimmings (and then some), Royal Berkshire epitomises cosy Christmas in the country.
However you choose to spend the festive season, every part of your stay at Royal Berkshire will be sprinkled with magic.
We pull out all the stops so no-one is left peeling the spuds or finding a way to fit the family round the table, letting everyone enjoy a well-deserved rest at this very special time of year.
