Agenda - Once the agenda has been confirmed by the course staff, I will send this out to you for your information. As the course runs alongside the FEI Show, please be prepared for some late night finishes. This will be confirmed once the agenda has been finalised.
Accommodation - The Brooklands Grange Hotel, Holyhead Road, Coventry, CV5 8HX
Due to the Horse of the Year Show and lack of available local hotels, British Showjumping has block booked a hotel within short travelling distance to the venue, from the 8th of October to the 11th of October. This arrangement has been made to ensure accommodation for the course delegates is confirmed at a cost effective price to all concerned.
Although delegates are responsible for booking their own accommodation, delegates are strongly recommended to take advantage of this offer, as it will ensure everyone is in the same hotel, thus making transportation to and from the course venue a lot easier.
The cost of the accommodation is £55 per night on a Bed & Breakfast basis. The total cost for a 3 day stay would be £165.
The hotel has a mixture of Single, Double and Twin Rooms available. Currently we have 21 Single rooms booked for the duration, however if anybody would like to share a Twin Room to keep the costs down, please let me know and I will book a Twin Room for you.
Payment for the accommodation will be taken direct by the hotel on check out.
If you would also like to stay an additional day, please let me know and I will arrange this for you also.
If you would like to take up this offer, please contact Rob Ellis on Rob.Ellis@BritishShowjumping.co.uk or 02476 698803.
