2015 January

We hope that you have had a joyful and relaxing holiday and have returned all bright and refreshed ready for the year ahead!

In this new-look newsletter we will share with you some hotels to keep an eye on this year and we have also highlighted dates for your calendar that are likely to affect availability and prices in locations that you might use.

If you are meeting up with colleagues to discuss your companys’ plans for the year ahead with regards to training, quarterly meetings, summer activity days, award dinners or, dare I say it, Christmas next year and you would like our help please do give us a call.  We can help with destination selection as well as hotel and venue choices and by working well in advance we can often save you time and money on your bookings.
