NEW YEAR’S EVE AT RESTAURANT 1777, THE OLD RECTORY

The Old Rectory Hotel & Spa in Plettenberg Bay is delighted to be hosting a NEW YEAR’S EVE DINNER! Gather your family and friends for an evening of delicious food, fine wine, great music, and plenty of fun.

RING IN THE NEW YEAR WITH US

  • We will begin the evening on the pool terrace at golden hour with oysters and a glass of Kay and Monty’s MCC Champu, paired with live music from the Riddle.

  • Dinner will commence at 7pm. Our Executive Chef, Justin Kotze, has created a ‘Classic Karoo’ inspired three-course menu (R700pp). Arrangements can be made for earlier dining for our younger guests too.

  • After dinner we will be serving coffee, tea, grappa or sherry, and playing music through the ages – starting from the 60s and working our way to the present day as we ring in the New Year together!
