Lochside House Hotel and Spa

The Big Deal crew are mad for mistletoe; crazy for crackers and we’re even pretty wild about wassailing.

In a nutshell, we love Christmas.

It’s just that the run-up to the festive fun and frolics can leave us a little frazzled.

Happily, there is a way to ensure that you feel full of bounce for the festive season.
