Accommodation
***Pre-booked***
Owing to a change of plan, we have had a pre-booked budget house become available again. It sleeps 8, in two rooms with queen beds and one with two double bunks. It will cost $190 for each person for the week. Currently it is booked from the night of Saturday 20 June to the night of Friday 26 June, but if most of those involved want to arrive earlier, we can book it for a few extra nights.
Other suggestions
There is a great range of accommodation available, from caravan parks, cabins and backpacker beds to a room at the local pub. However, it is important to realise that this will be prime holiday season, and that the best and cheapest accommodation can fill up as much as twelve months in advance. BOOK EARLY to make sure you do not miss out on accommodation!
Here are some suggestions; the indicative price per person per night has been estimated at current rates and assumes that the accommodation is fully occupied by adults, including two to any queen/double room. The rate for campsites is estimated for two people to the site, and may work out cheaper if there are more.
If you make a booking and have spare beds to sell on, please let the committee know as soon as possible.
