The pub promises the “best decorated venue for miles” and the free event requires no booking – just turn up.

Phil Bayliss, of The Gate Hotel, said: “Don’t miss this event. We’re the best trimmed up pub in Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire – people come from miles to see it.

“There must have been 150 people here last year for the turn-on, it was absolutely fantastic.

“This is the one event that you want to see this Christmas.”
