Just that really - this may be more a question for the 'alone in life' with no relatives than just the pure 'childfree'.
Suffered some bereavements so didn't want to do this for the first few years as worried I would be too emotionally vulnerable. Time has moved on so was thinking of doing this. I like the idea of being catered for, having a bit of luxury, probably would be looking at a luxury country house hotel type place with roaring log fires and opportunity for a walk in some woods.
What bothers me though is actually how many people do this? If you have ever spend Christmas (meaning including the actual day/night 25 Dec) in a hotel, how many people did you see who were alone or was it all big families having a day out?
I don't mean from a point of view of other solo dinners/travellers to interact with btw - just the prescence of other solo people at lunch/ in the dinning room so I don't feel like a freak or worse stand out so much that I have big groups feeling sorry for me and asking me to join them...
if you've done it, did you have a good time? would you do it again? any advice?
