Welsh Weekend 2015

Postby slparry » Tue Jul 29, 2014 7:29 pm

The Wild Pheasant is more than happy again to extend another welcome to us, but I've also asked

www.baskervillehall.co.uk

Near Hereford to quote, as a finger in the air date I said the weekend of the 24th / 25th April 2015 to them (as they need an idea of the date to quote) and they reckoned they could offer a two night dinner, bed and breakfast for £129 per person. I tried to squeeze them down to the price band the WPH does for us at £99 but failed :)

However, they do have additional options such as bunk house accommodation, camping and at the other end of the scale more expensive exec rooms apparently.

I know very little of the area but the Brecon Beacons etc is not far so I guess there's some interesting riding down that end of Wales.

So up to you lot, do you want me to pursue this line, or the Pheasant or some other option. I must admit I do feel a bit like I'm betraying the Pheasant as they've gone out of their way to make us welcome :)

Why not both, one spring-ish, one autumn-ish?

Continue the relationship with the WP, but the Baskerville bunk house / camping option gives the chance of a weekend to people who find it difficult to stretch to hotel/b&b prices.

The Beacons / Epynt / Powys have some excellent roads.

If there's a "will" for it it sounds a great idea, although someone else can take over the reins on Baskerville, hell it's like herding cats sorting the WPH at times :D

April 24 & 25 at the wild pheasant works for me. Thanks for organising again Steve and let us know when we can start phoning in the bookings.

Cheers,

Paul
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
