Alpine Lodge at The Old Government House Hotel

Description

=============================

The Alpine Lodge will be open from the 19th November 2025 to 4th January 2026 - bookings are now available

=============================

During the winter months, our terrace transforms into a chic and cosy Alpine Lodge, complete with snowy backdrops and all the charm of an après ski escape. Think rustic wooden walls, a crackling fire, barrel tables, skis and sledges, plus inviting sofas draped with chunky rugs and soft fleeces—the perfect setting for a festive celebration.

Our bar brims with seasonal favourites, from mulled wine and hot spiced cider to hot toddies, beers, and an extensive selection of cocktails and mocktails—guaranteed to bring on the Christmas cheer.

At weekends, our Family & Friends Saturday and Sunday sessions make the lodge even more magical, with festive activities for children and a special appearance from Father Christmas himself.
