The Tempus announces return of festive Alpine Tipi near Alnwick
The Tempus hotel near Alnwick has announced the return of its popular winter wonderland Alpine Tipi.
Reopening on Friday, November 20, the tipi brings a magical festive escape to the heart of the Northumberland countryside.


Following the success of previous seasons, the attraction has become a much-loved winter destination, welcoming locals and visitors alike for evenings filled with delicious food, live music and warming drinks
Open every Friday and Saturday from 4pm – 10pm, the tipi welcomes both guests staying at The Tempus or simply visiting for a festive evening.
The tipi is decorated with twinkling fairy lights, cosy sheepskin throws and the comforting glow of roaring fires.
Outside, crackling firepits provide the perfect spot to toast marshmallows, sip a warming cocktail and enjoy the Northumberland night sky.
This year, food takes centre stage with an indulgent festive menu served from The Tempus’ own Estate Kitchen, bringing a playful Christmas twist to some much-loved winter favourites.
Adding to the atmosphere, the Alpine Tipi will host live music every Friday and Saturday evening.
Richard Parker, general manager at The Tempus, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to be bringing the Alpine Tipi back for another festive season. It’s become a special part of winter at The Tempus, and we love seeing guests come together to enjoy the atmosphere, the food and the live music.
“This year, we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back with an exciting festive menu, seasonal cocktails and another fantastic programme of live music. Whether it’s a family visit, a catch-up with friends or simply an evening spent by the fire, the Alpine Tipi is all about creating those special experiences that make winter magical.”
