Burns Night in Gloucester at Oakwood Hotel

Late January can feel like a long stretch after the festive season, and Burns Night offers a good excuse for a proper evening out — good food, a bit of tradition, and a reason to get dressed up before spring. On the edge of Gloucester in Twigworth, Oakwood Hotel offers a warm setting for marking the 25th of January, away from the usual city-centre options.

If you’re after Burns Night in Gloucester with proper food and a relaxed atmosphere, Oakwood is worth considering for the evening.

A Proper Burns Night Dinner

Burns Night calls for a considered menu, and our dining is built around exactly that kind of occasion. The Grill offers seasonal, produce-led cooking well suited to a traditional Burns Supper, while the setting gives the evening a bit more occasion than a standard midweek dinner.

Why Choose Oakwood for Burns Night

A few reasons guests choose Oakwood for the evening:

• A proper, considered setting, suited to marking the occasion rather than a quick dinner.

• Easy, on-site parking, without the hassle of a busy city-centre evening out.
