General Information for Ski Holidays in 2011

Costs above are an approximation, and based on an exchange rate of €1.15 to the £1 (This is the average rate over the past 4 years, but the hotel tariffs will change as the rate fluctuates). These prices include half board in twin or double rooms with en suite bathrooms, wine each evening with dinner, a welcome cocktail party, a farewell drink, prize giving and a full Bridge programme. Also, our usual team will be on hand to help you enjoy both your ski-ing and après ski activities, pointing out the best pistes, restaurants and bars for you to enjoy. Paul Spencer should be with us on 3 of the 5 weeks (the Middle Week in January and both Weeks in March). Bridge Partners are guaranteed.

There is a wide choice of flights to the Alps available at very competitive prices which you can book yourself. However, we have reserved several First and Standard Class seats for each Saturday on the Eurostar Express. The train departs from London St. Pancras International at 10am, and following a stop to pick up passengers in Kent is scheduled to arrive in Moutiers at 17.30 (local time). Transfers to the hotel will be provided in taxis or a private coach with a transfer time of about 20 minutes. The train is very comfortable and there will be opportunities to enjoy a few hands of Bridge during the journey, as well as complimentary meals and drinks in First Class. The return trip has broadly similar timings, arriving back in London at around 16.15. The cost of the first class return train journey is £260 per person for the January departures, and £339 for the March weeks. Standard Class fares are between £90 and £140 less depending on the departure date. These fares are subject to availability. Transfer costs to the hotel will be £12.50 per person each way.
There is also the freedom of driving to the resorts via the channel tunnel or ferry service and this could be the preferred choice for those happy to take their time getting there.

We are not arranging the complete package for you, as this would contravene European Travel Regulations. However by using a quality Hotel that we know well, and where there is a reliable management structure, we feel that we are giving you the confidence that you will get good value for money. In addition you have the added flexibility of arranging your own travel should you so wish or joining others in our group on the train - their holiday starts in London!

Please let us have booking forms back as soon as you are able to confirm your requirements as two of the weeks were fully sold out last year and we cannot guarantee Hotel availability after 1st November. Seats on the Eurostar Express are also limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis!

We strongly recommend that you arrange a suitable travel insurance policy for your protection while travelling abroad. If you would like any help with this, we are able to put you in touch with our own brokers, Lloyd & Whyte of Taunton, who will provide you with a quotation.

Summer Walking Holiday

Almost 40 guests had a most enjoyable week at the Losehill House at the end of June 2010 with great weather, wonderful food and service and some excellent Bridge. The golfers also enjoyed a couple of rounds at the nearby Sickleholme club which was by all accounts a very beautiful and challenging course.

This Holiday will almost certainly take place again in 2011 with lots of new walks to try out. Why not reserve the date in your diary? It is programmed to be 5 nights from Sunday June 12th to Friday June 17th.
