Welcome to The Assembly House Igloos 2025!

Bookings are now OPEN! Call 01603 626402 to reserve - all igloo bookings must be made by phone.

This Christmas, step into a world of wonder beneath the stars, as our magical igloos return to the lawn at The Assembly House.

Framed by twinkling trees and the glow of fairy lights, these elegant snow globes offer a private dining experience unlike any other. Whether it’s brunch with baubles, fondue by fairy light or afternoon tea with tinsel, this is Norfolk’s most spellbinding festive celebration.

Gather your favourite people in your own heated hideaway and celebrate the season in style. Each igloo is yours alone to enjoy for up to 10 guests, complete with music, warmth, and your own dedicated team.

See below for the different options we offer and click through to the menus for Festive Beforenoon Tea, Christmas Afternoon Tea and Après-ski.
