Call on James’ Places for fizz, food and dancing

By Lancashire Business View

03 Oct 2017

If you’re searching for great atmosphere and fabulous food with roaring fires, twinkling candles and plush, cosy surroundings, then take a look at James’ Places.

Get fabulously festive at one of its spectacular venues. And with so much going on over the Christmas period, you’ll definitely find something you love.

Party, party, party at Mitton Hall or The Shireburn Arms, ideal for 'the works do' and for families and groups of friends too. Think superb food, glasses of fizz aplenty, dancing and lashings of Christmassy style. Their party nights are not to be missed and are available on a selection of dates throughout December.

Throughout the month of December, Holmes Mill takes its celebrations to another level. Heading upstairs to the fabulous, industrial chic function room, parties kick up a gear with beer delivered directly from the in-house brewery and plenty of Christmas spirits. Join in one of the pre-organised party nights or enquire about a total takeover.

On Christmas Day let the team take the strain whilst you enjoy a feast fit for a king with friends and family in the grand splendour of Eaves Hall.

The Emporium and The Royal Hotel are offering fabulous New Year's Eve celebrations with live music, delicious food and the opportunity to dance your way into 2018.

Or if something a bit low-key is more your style, The Waddington Arms could be right up your street. This welcoming village pub is offering a festive menu throughout December and has six bedrooms, just in case you decide to stay over to the sleep off the excesses. The perfect place for meeting friends and family for the traditional Christmas knees up. All of James’ Places are available to pre-book now and for more details please visit the website to take a look at the individual venues.
