A Summer Garden of Evening Delights – New Year’s Eve at Lake House

Thursday 31 December 2026, 7.30pm

Imagine a garden in full bloom on a summer’s night, candlelit, humming with music, and waiting for you.

Step through the door where Lake House softens into an enchanted garden after dark: abundant country blooms, herbs scenting the air, beeswax candles from Lake House’s own hives glowing along shared tables. There’s a whimsy to it all – a night made for gathering with kindred spirits, whether you’ve marked the turning of the year here before or are joining the table for the first.

Champagne and fragrant botanical cocktails greet you on the lakeshore at golden hour. Old friends gather, new ones are made over a drink or two, some of them, we suspect, will be friends for life.

A sumptuous multi-course dinner unfolds – produce drawn from our farm and from the most trusted producers in the country. Pairings the wine team have sought from the depths of our much lauded cellar, are chosen for celebrating with nearest and dearest.

As the year turns, the room becomes a candlelit jazz club – a singer, piano and double bass, dancing, and much lubrication.

Come set the pace for the year ahead: one of optimism and joy, of creativity and good company, of dancing well past midnight. It is, quite simply, good for the soul.

Dress: Black tie, in bloom.
