Special Trip
TRIP TO TENERIFE: October 2012
The club will have a special trip in 2012 to the beautiful island of Tenerife. We will be staying in Puerto de la Cruz which is further north than the usual holiday spots and is situated in ideal walking terrain. The dates are 29 Sept to 6 Oct and we will be staying on a half board basis in the Catalonia Las Vegas Hotel. All rooms are ensuite with a balcony. The total cost will be £540 pp for a twin room and £585 for a very limited single room. There will also be around 60 euros to pay once we are at the resort and this will cover the cost of local transport. This trip is now full.
