The Courthouse Hotel, Tamworth is embracing the chill this July and inviting locals and travellers to experience the magic of winter in the New England North West.
From Friday 4 to Monday 28 July, The Courthouse – owned by hospitality investment manager and operator Harvest Hotels – will transform the upper level of its outdoor beer garden into an ice-skating rink, launching the pub’s first ever winter wonderland themed event.
Coinciding with the school holidays and Tamworth’s Hats Off to Country festival, this month-long celebration offers fun for all ages, combining ice skating adventures, movies under the stars, dedicated parties, live music, winter-inspired food and drinks, and festive vibes to light up the cooler season.
It has been designed and aimed to offer locals a fun activity, while also giving visitors – whether they’re in Tamworth for a day of jobs or looking for a school holidays trip – a reason to rally family and friends, visit the Tamworth region, or extend their stay.
