Make the festive season sparkle
For many, the excitement for the most magical time of the year starts early, and we are already busy designing our Christmas breaks and menus for 2026.
Make this Christmas one to remember with a festive escape to Wild Thyme & Honey, a beautiful country hotel and restaurant in the heart of the Cotswolds.
With honey-coloured villages, country lanes, and beautiful countryside, the Cotswolds make a wonderful setting for a Christmas escape. Spend your days exploring the surrounding villages and countryside before returning to Wild Thyme & Honey for a festive meal, a warming drink or a cosy evening by the fire.
Located in Ampney Crucis, close to Cirencester, Wild Thyme & Honey is ideally placed for enjoying the Cotswolds during the festive season.
Whether you're visiting for Christmas Day lunch, a festive dinner, a Christmas party or an overnight stay, make Wild Thyme & Honey part of your Cotswolds Christmas. Choose from our festive menus, sharing experiences and special Christmas Day dining, with options to suit intimate gatherings and larger celebrations.
New Year's Eve at Wild Thyme & Honey
There’s something about New Year’s Eve that calls for a little more time around the table, another drink at the bar and one more song before midnight.
This year, join us at Wild Thyme & Honey for an evening that starts with cocktails and supper, moves through the casino tables and onto the dance floor, before counting down to midnight together.
Whether you’re joining us for dinner or arriving later for the celebrations, settle in and stay awhile. And if you don’t want the evening to end, stay the night. Our New Year’s Eve overnight package takes care of dinner, the celebrations and breakfast the following morning.
Magical Winter Nights
Step into the magic of a winter’s night in the Cotswolds. Inspired by the warmth and charm of the French Alps, settle in for an evening of seasonal flavours, cosy surroundings and a little festive indulgence.
Expect cosy laughter, twinkling lights and delicious bites beneath the stars. Magical Winter Nights is a covered outdoor dining experience, complete with heaters, firepits, blankets and hot water bottles to keep you warm and cosy.
We recommend wrapping up warm and dressing for a winter’s evening.
