Holiday Gatherings Worth Planning

A Setting for Every Celebration

Whether gathering your team for a festive holiday party or planning a memorable New Year’s celebration, Salamander Middleburg offers an extraordinary setting in the heart of Virginia’s horse and wine country. Just one hour from Washington, D.C., our Triple Forbes Five-Star resort pairs refined service, exceptional cuisine and timeless countryside charm.

Our award-winning culinary team will create a menu as memorable as the occasion, showcasing fresh, seasonal ingredients and artful presentation. From elegant passed hors d’oeuvres and festive seated dinners to indulgent dessert displays, our experienced planners and culinary team bring every detail to life with precision and genuine Salamander hospitality.

For calendars already filled this December, a post-holiday celebration in January or February offers an inviting alternative. Gather beside the resort’s fireplaces and take in the serene winter countryside while creating time for renewal, recognition and reconnection.

From grand corporate celebrations to intimate private dinners, Salamander Middleburg offers a distinctive collection of event venues designed to bring the spirit of the season to life.
