Guest blog from Budock Vean Hotel
Lockdown 2 might have stopped us all in our tracks but, always ones to look on the bright side, it’s given us extra time to get the hotel and our beautiful grounds looking Christmas-ready. Our trees are ordered, we’ve had a full re-jig of the events programme and launched a brand new series of live events for people to enjoy this December … well, why wouldn’t you?!
Starting on Friday 4th December the hotel launches a series of overnight stays with live entertainment. Kernow King gets things started offering some very welcome light relief with his Greatest Hits live show, on the 4th and 11th. Kneehigh veteran, (his words not ours), David Mynne brings his one man show A Christmas Carol to us on 9th and 17th and The Simon Latarche Jazz Trio are all lined up to entertain during our re-imagined party nights, (the dancing and discos are on hold this year). Tickets for these stays include a welcome drink, 4 star 4-course dinner, live entertainment, overnight accommodation, breakfast and use of the pool, hot tub, golf and grounds.
You can also catch Simon and his Trio on two of the special Christmas lunches running each Thursday and Sunday throughout December, they’ll be live on Sundays 13th and 20th. These special lunches are just £28 per person.
The team at Budock Vean are no strangers to offering live events but of course there are slightly more restrictions in place than before, something that we’ve got covered.
Before we reopened back in July our teams looked at every single aspect of our working procedures and service style and gave them a covid-secure makeover. We’re proud of all our efforts and the feedback from our guests has shown us that we’ve adapted well to this ‘new normal’. Although things may seem a little different when it comes to service and our new hygiene programme, we are still able to offer a relaxing and enjoyable experience.
Of course, we appreciate that things may change, so we have a flexible cancellation policy and our gift vouchers are still available if you’re looking for local Christmas experience gifts. Budock Vean gift vouchers can be used for hotel stays, spa days or treatments, golf days, meals or afternoon tea … definitely something that people can look forward to.
“We do Christmas really well and we’re determined that this year will be no different. We’ve re-imagined our offer to ensure we can continue to follow all new legislation and still offer really special and memorable events for people to enjoy, experience that help share a smile.” Martin Barlow, Owner.
*Budock Vean is COVID-safe. All tables are for a maximum of 6 people and each group of 6 would need to remain in their “bubble” for the whole time they were at the hotel. The dining room and bars close at 10pm.

Trip Advisor – 5/5 – Best Covid prepared hotel ever
“Really loved it here from the comfortable bed, and good food right down to the lovely walk down to the water’s edge. The hotel is in the country but easy to find. It does have a golf course and a spa but we didn’t use either. We have stayed in half a dozen hotels since Covid but no doubt that in this front, Budock Vean was the best. Staff wear gloves and a mask, same table for every meal, staff don’t touch your food or drinks. Menu is a la carte only but plenty of choice and changes daily. Highly highly recommended.“
