For single room occupancy only please talk to Sharone at the hotel as there could possibly be some reduction for not having 2 breakfasts.

Family Rooms can accommodate up to 2 children for an additional £15/head per child.

For those who want to make a weekend of it they are also offering an "Explorer Break"
from £57.50 per person for 2 nights - Total cost of £230 for two people to include;-

So to summarise - please contact the hotel direct by email or phone and talk to Sharone, mentioning the A8/S8 Owners Annual Meeting.
She will book your choice of reserved room from what is left available.
Once you have booked please update the attendance thread to confirm which nights you are booked in as this hopefully
gives us an idea of what rooms are still free and who is coming when.

There are camp sites also available locally - more details to follow shortly for those (both normal campsites and "Glamping" lol )

Agenda for the meet to follow soon!! :D


Ok Guys n Gals - time to commit to coming to the best Gig of the year!

Many thanks in advance to our roving/romping and otherwise frolicking reporters for all their hard work and efforts!

Best regards,
