You all know we do a fantastic roast every Sunday, today it's had the full festive treatment - crackers, carols, pigs in blankets - you know the idea!

We've been setting off on a bracing walk between Christmas and New Year for many years and it truly is a Gins tradition. Wrap up warm and enjoy a bracing walk through the Beaulieu Estate before returning to Gins for a simple lunch.

I would like to invite you all to join our Commodore for a cocktail evening to celebrate the New Year at Gins Come along and meet the Flag Officers to catch up on news and plans while the team at Gins serve complimentary cocktails and nibbles for you to enjoy.
