These will be held on Friday November 29; Saturday December 7; Saturday December 14 and Saturday December 21.
Christmas meals will also be served in the Restaurant or Panel Room on Monday to Saturday, 12 midday to 8.30pm, excluding party nights when restaurant services stop at 4pm.
Pre-booking is essential for the party nights and Christmas meals.
Gwesty Feathers Hotel, built in 1815, features 13 hotel rooms, a restaurant, two bars and one of the biggest function rooms in the county.
It underwent a major renovation earlier this year to give this piece of history a new lease of life, keeping the original fabric of the building and all its quirks but now presented in a more welcoming tone.
At The Feathers Hotel they welcome all that wish to visit, whether it be for a lunchtime coffee, honeymoon getaway, business trip, anniversary dinner in the restaurant or to celebrate your wedding.
