Club Holiday Weekend: Friday 29th April – Tuesday 3rd May 2022

Apologies for the two-year delay, but we are now pleased to be able to give you the details for our next coach holiday (four nights this time to make up for the delay). Our destination is the 88 bed Trouville Hotel situated in the centre of Sandown’s seafront on the south-eastern coast of the Isle of Wight, so that its lounge and bars provide stunning views of the bay. Subject to availability, for the Scottish dancers (and others) the hotel offers the island’s largest hotel ballroom with 1500 square metres of maple sprung dance floor. A function room has up to 4 lanes of short mat bowls, and indoor pursuits such as table tennis and a pool table. The town centre lies immediately behind the hotel. The rest of the island, being compact, is readily accessible, and provides excellent walking both around its coastal path or inland on its grassy downs. Provided leaders come forward (do volunteer!), it is hoped to offer four walks on each of the three full days. One group will concentrate on visiting some of the Island’s attractions, which include Queen Victoria’s Osborne House, Carisbrooke Castle and (wait for it!) a steam railway.

Further details are available to members in full programme.
