It is the latest money-spinner for Ade, 53, who has previously sold Christmas trees from his front lawn and set-up an Airbnb and a vineyard on his Cambridgeshire estate.

The music fan, who has also hosted heavy metal festivals on his grounds, has gone upmarket for the latest adventure with tickets coming in at £110 a head.

It promises to take guests on a “Lost in New York” adventure with a three-course meal, live entertainment and a disco.

The Christmas Parties Unlimited site says guests will be taken “from the beauty of Central Park to the bright lights of New York City, with some well-known Home Alone inspired music throughout the evening”.

It adds: “After dinner, we’re off to the most legendary NYC nightclub of the disco-era for a Studio 54 themed after-party!

“With our live DJ playing music from all eras, everyone will be up and dancing before you know it.”

Adrian and Gillian celebrated their mega win in 2012 by ordering Domino’s.

They broke up the following year, splitting the jackpot win. Adrian was later linked to Marta Jarosz, 30, a Polish sausage factory worker, who he employed as a bodyguard and assistant.

He then met stable girl Sam Burbidge in January 2014 and spent big on her riding hobby, buying up to 30 thoroughbred horses.

They got engaged but she left in 2017. Adrian then wooed Frankie & Benny’s waitress Lisa Kemp, 46, in December 2017.

He is now dating old friend Tracey Biles, and the couple are due to marry.
