Holiday Gatherings Worth Planning

A Setting for Every Celebration

Bring your team together for a festive holiday gathering or welcome the New Year amid the rolling hills of Virginia’s horse and wine country. Located just one hour from Washington, D.C., Forbes Triple Five-Star Salamander Middleburg pairs gracious service, exceptional cuisine and timeless countryside charm.

Our award-winning culinary team creates seasonal menus tailored to each occasion, featuring fresh ingredients and artful presentation. Elegant passed hors d’oeuvres, festive seated dinners and indulgent dessert displays are complemented by experienced planning and genuine Salamander hospitality.

For calendars already filled in December, a post-holiday gathering in January or February offers an appealing alternative. Fireside spaces and serene winter views provide an inviting backdrop for recognition, connection and a renewed start to the year.

Corporate celebrations, private dinners and festive receptions find a distinctive home within our collection of indoor and outdoor event venues, each designed to capture the spirit of the season.
