Dear Rotarian
Please circulate this information to your club members. I am sorry that this information is late, I have been negotiating the fees with the hotel. The Rotary Club of Wreake Valley is arranging the Eurotary87 visit and aiming to reduce the cost to encourage more people to attend, especially as there are fewer clubs participating. Suffolk is a county in the east of England beside the sea and with beautiful countryside, there are historic towns and villages. Woodbridge is a small town in Suffolk on the estuary of river Deben with easy access to the main A12 road that follows the south Suffolk coast in the east of England. The port of Harwich is approximately 1 hour away by car and Stansted airport is approximately 1hr 30minutes drive to the hotel. Ufford Park Hotel, Woodbridge, Suffolk is a spa hotel with its own golf course and driving range.
ROOMS: Friday 6 – Sunday 8th October (all September dates were fully booked). The hotel has offered the following special room rates:
- Single room & breakfast per room per night £110
- Double room & breakfast per room per night £130
Guests must reserve their own room by contacting the hotel and use the code GA001589, this is the code for the Eurotary87 event and special room rate.
