Description
Join us again for another unforgettable Winter Lunch Celebration trip in Pradollano, Sierra Nevada! Wednesday 10 December 2025
The year is beginning to draw to a close! We are only a few short weeks away from Christmas celebrations and New Year 2026! It is time to think about how we can make the end of this iCS season as magical as it has felt over the year!
We are thrilled to invite you to our annual Winter Lunch celebration, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Pradollano, Sierra Nevada, on Wednesday, 10 December.
This is an extraordinary opportunity to combine our annual Winter Lunch with a visit to one of the seasonal hotspots in our part of Southern Spain. A rare chance to embrace the snowy peaks we so often admire from afar, up close and personal!
Our lunch last year was so popular and well received that we have decided to keep to the same format. We’ve chosen a delightful hot and cold buffet menu to give everyone as much freedom of choice as possible. The hotel has again very kindly agreed to include freshly sliced roast turkey in the buffet especially for us.
Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted with a choice of welcome drink by the fireplace of either Cava, Cocktail 0%, house wine, beer, refresco or flavored waters, served with Patatas Chips, Frutos Secos y Aceitunas to kick off the festivities.
After the meal, there is the opportunity to have coffee on the terrace of a restaurant attached to the hotel that has a terrace and even some free time to explore the charming ski village shops and bars.

Booking will be made on our website. Last year we were able to operate two buses for the trip but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so again until we know there is sufficient interest to fill both.
So initially, places are strictly limited to 60 as we have to rely on coach travel included to the location.
We strongly recommend that you book as early as possible to guarantee your place on the trip.
Having said that, we do require 45 minimum to go ahead with the trip.
Click the link to visit the web page and complete our short online form. Bookings close on Tuesday 25 November 2025. After that date, refunds will not be possible unless someone takes your place.
You will notice also that our booking process has changed for this trip. You will select the type of ticket(s) that you require and tell us how many by changing the “Quantity” to the number of seats for that type of ticket (whether ICS Member of Non Member Guest). When you have selected the tickets you need click on the button to pay using our secure online payments provider STRIPE.
We look forward to sharing this wonderful experience with you.
Your ICS Committee
