5-day holiday to Eastbourne (Mansion Lions Hotel)

This is primarily a Garden Visits Group holiday where we shall be visiting some notable gardens. Details are on their page here.

Cost £220 pp for those sharing. Singles £233 pp. Balances to be paid no later than 20th April - at the U3A meeting.

This is now full but to be put on the waiting list please ring Margaret Burlinson on 632538 or email marburl@lineone.net

10 days by coach to Bavaria (including one day & night in Oberammergau to see the Passion Play)

We shall stay in the Liege area for one night after driving through the Eurotunnel, then on to our second night in Heidelberg.

Our base will be in Kirchberg from where we enjoy 3 included excursions over the following three days, then on to Oberammergau for the performance of the Passion Play. After a night's stay there, we drive for another one night stay in Freiburg in the Black Forest and then on to Paris in time for a 'Paris by night' tour before bed. The next day, we return to Calais for the Eurotunnel crossing to Folkestone.

42 people have signed up for this holiday, but because of our age and from past experience there is always a possibility of a cancellation due to illness and a pending operation. Consequently, I would like to open a waiting list for any one who may be interested in this holiday & who will have an opportunity to see the Passion Play, which is performed only once every ten years.

The cost will range from £979 - £1279 depending on which seat in the auditorium will become available. I may still be able to deduct at least £60 if we can maintain the 42 people who have already paid two instalments. (This is a very competitive price.)

For more information & details of the organised excursions ring 632538 or email marburl@lineone.net.
