A quick heads up for the post Christmas meet....we have just booked for the weekend and at the moment they have plenty of availability,we have taken the Friday thru Sunday option which is a really good deal,so if your thinking of going  and to avoid disapointment then they only need a £20 deposit to reserve a room which are only a short crawl from the bar. :D :y
