A Cornish Christmas all wrapped up in luxury at Retallack Resort and Spa

Snuggle up this Christmas and enjoy five star service right in the beating heart of the Cornish countryside. Let the Retallack Resort team handle the details to guarantee a magical festive season for the whole family. Should you arrive from 20 December – 30 December and stay in one of Retallack's luxury lodges or apartments you can even enjoy 25% off. Make sure you book before November 30th and use the code 'FESTIVE25' upon booking your enchanted holiday.

Whether you choose a luxury chalet with a hot tub or log burner, or a smart lakeside studio apartment sprinkled with Christmassy touches, you can see out the festive season with heaps of comfort and cheer at Retallack. If you can tear yourselves away from the warmth of your chalet, the resort is ideally located to easily visit Eden Project's Winter Festival or Padstow's gastronomic and festive delights.

With the UK's fastest growing airport just seven miles away at Newquay you can enjoy a stress-free Christmas break from major cities such as London and Manchester and go from busy cityscape to idyllic landscape in just a few hours. You can even have your very own decorated tree in your luxury chalet.

Wrap up in woolens and take a brisk winter walk across the 120 acres of beautiful nature before cocooning yourself in a luxurious treatment at the ESYA Spa or snuggle together in front of the log burner with your favourite Christmas classic on the TV. It is the perfect romantic getaway or bonding experience with friends and family in a larger group.

During the entire month of December, the decorated resort is hosting a string of joyous happenings for every member of the family:

Meet Santa in the Magical Woodland Den
Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday from the 1st of December, you and the whole family can meet Santa and his friends in the Magical Woodland Den. Kids of all ages can create their own crafty Christmas presents in the workshop and meet all of the festive companions such as elves, but also more unique visitors such as unicorns may make an appearance. There will also be edible treats, comforting hot chocolate as well as a present for each child from Santa himself!

The price is £10 per child and can be booked by phone on 01637 882400 or by emailing kids.club@retallackresort.co.uk. Under 2s are free of charge. It is £5 to see Santa with a Christmas present.
