6 Ways to Celebrate the Festive Season at Basset Down

It’s starting to feel very Christmassy here – the decorations are up, the lights are twinkling and we’re gearing up for an exciting couple of weeks ahead.

From our popular Christmas Market to Festive Afternoon Teas, indulgent seasonal menus and gift ideas, there’s plenty to enjoy with friends, family, or colleagues. Whether you’re planning a festive meal out, looking for unique presents, or just want to get into the Christmas spirit, here’s 6 ways you can celebrate with us…

1. Christmas Market

Our Christmas Market is back THIS WEEK and this year it’s bigger than ever, with two dates to choose from. Friday 28th November, 5–9pm (the perfect after-work shopping trip!) and Saturday 29th November, 11am–4pm.

Take a look at which stallholders will be at our market and further details here.

Soak up the festive atmosphere whilst browsing for unique gifts with a variety of local stallholders. Plus, our restaurant will be open both days, serving a range of festive food and drinks to keep you full and fuelled while you explore! (Pre-booking recommended)

2. Festive Afternoon Tea

If you’re after something a little more relaxed, our Festive Afternoon Tea is available Thursday–Saturday until 3rd January.

For £27.50pp, enjoy festive sandwiches, homemade sausage rolls, sweet treats (yes, including mince pies!), freshly baked scones, and crackers too. Our restaurant is fully decked out for the season, with gorgeous views over the North Chalk Downs — perfect for unwinding.

3. Christmas Menus

Our festive menus are now being served daily for breakfast, lunch, and on Thursday–Saturday evenings from 24th November – 4th January (closed Christmas Day). Expect seasonal flavours, indulgent favourites, and a separate Winter Menu if you’re after something non-festive.

Got a larger group? Our private dining room is ideal for gatherings of 20+ and makes celebrations feel extra special.

Take a look at the menus and book a table when you’re ready.

4. Give the Gift of Basset Down

Looking for a thoughtful present? Our Gift Vouchers can be used for everything here — afternoon tea, the restaurant, golf, footgolf, disc golf, the driving range… you name it.

Pick one up at reception, or give us a call and we’ll pop it in the post.

5. Try Something New: Disc Golf, Footgolf & Toptracer

If you’re after an activity that gets everyone smiling, our Disc Golf courses are a brilliant choice — easy to learn, fun for all ages, and great in the fresh air.

We also have Footgolf and our Toptracer driving range (all undercover, so perfect whatever the weather). Free club hire for kids, festive challenges, and fun competitions make it great for groups big or small.

6. Celebrate All Season Long

We’re open throughout Christmas week — including Christmas Eve and Boxing Day (closed only on Christmas Day).

Whether it’s a festive brunch, a swing on the range, or a family outing, we’ll be here to welcome you.

Check our opening hours and plan a visit whenever suits you.
