December 2024 Newsletter
A DUSTING OF WHITE
It's finally beginning to feel like Winter, we've even had our first snow! Within the houses, the fires are lit again. The halls are being decked. The amaryllis and paper white buds are planted, and there's a sense of the goodness of gathering, of speeding toward a promised slow down and chance to celebrate.
They are going quickly, but we still have a few rooms available the weekends before and after Christmas, a rarity, and Benton Cottage - 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, living room, dining room and kitchenette, is available from 12/29 through the new year, so do take advantage of this chance to be in residence here.
Our Fall incentive continues in December: $50 resort credit, per NEW mid-week night books, to put toward dining or wellness offerings. Please use code FALL*
*Restrictions apply.

DIVINE DINING DAILY + FOR THE HOLIDAYS
While we have glorious holiday menus (à la carte and prix fixe) set for the Christmas Eve, Day, and New Year's Eve at Troutbeck, we need not relegate the importance of dining together, breaking bread, sharing in conversation with the obvious days on the calendar. Join us for a meal with someone you treasure in December and feed your souls.

THIS + THAT
Reminder that we've launched our 2025 Offerings + Invitations - packages that help you get the most out of a visit, whether it be productivity, wellness or simply staying longer.
Also, we have some positions open at Troutbeck: an Administrative Assistant with a focus on supporting the marketing team; a Housekeeping Manager; and a Restaurant Manager. Please have a look and consider joining our team: Careers at Troutbeck.
