Planning your trip
With so much on offer, you might need some inspiration! We’ve hand-picked a selection of favourite destinations and provided an overview of the very best highlights...
First for Bridge European escapes Highlights
If you want to play Bridge in some of Europe’s most fascinating and beautiful places, our First for Bridge collection of European holidays has just the holiday to suit you!
Spain’s ever-popular Balearic Islands, along with the islands of Sicily, Cyprus and Malta are the perfect choice if you are looking for some Mediterranean sunshine. For a winter escape the warmer climes of Madeira or the Canary Islands may appeal. You’ll be staying in first-class, resort-style hotels and when you’re not playing Bridge there’s a whole range of facilities for you to enjoy. If you still want to follow the sun but prefer smaller, more intimate hotels, you’ll love our holidays to the Italian Riviera.
Our collection of Bridge holidays abroad also includes lakes and mountains. Whether it’s the Italian Dolomites, the Austrian, Swiss or French Alps, you’ll be holidaying in idyllic surroundings – perfect if you want to relax and immerse yourself in Bridge. At First for Bridge we believe Bridge and cruising go hand in hand, and on our ocean and river cruises you can play Bridge between stepping ashore to explore a host of intriguing destinations.
First for Bridge European escapes cater for everyone looking for a short break to a fortnight’s holiday. On some holidays you can choose between a 7 or 14-night stay and it may be possible to fly from your local airport. Our Club Standard Bridge Holidays and Refresher’s Bridge always include the services of a qualified Bridge director and a friendly Bridge host to take care of all your travel arrangements. So, whether you’re travelling alone or as a couple, with First for Bridge you can relax safe in the knowledge you’ll be holidaying with people who share your mutual interest, enjoying amazing destinations and of course stimulating sessions of Bridge.
First for Bridge Festive Breaks Highlights
If you love to play Bridge and are looking to get away for the festive season, why not join us on one of our First for Bridge Christmas and New Year holidays? Whether you’re looking for some winter sun, or want a cosy hotel break closer to home, let us take care of all the trimmings so you can relax and enjoy the festivities with plenty of time for Bridge.
You’ll be staying in first-class, comfortable hotels celebrating Christmas Day with a traditional feast and seeing in the New Year in sparkling style. Whether holidaying with a partner or alone you’ll be warmly welcomed by our friendly Bridge hosts, who’ll be on hand throughout your stay and sharing the festivities. As with every First for Bridge holiday our Christmas and New Year festive breaks include a full programme of Bridge and the services of one of our qualified Bridge directors.
First for Bridge Winter Escapes Highlights
Whatever your level of play, First for Bridge has a wonderful selection of winter Bridge holidays.
Our winter sun Bridge holidays head south to the Mediterranean, Madeira and the Canary Islands where you can enjoy all the facilities of first-class, resort-style hotels. They’ve been carefully chosen to appeal to the age of our Bridge guests and their popularity means we return to many of them year-on-year. Situated in prime positions, often right on the seafront, your First for Bridge sessions may well be in a room with a view! If you want to get out and about, you’ll find local shops, bars and restaurants either within walking distance or on a good public transport route close to our hotel.
With the services of a qualified Bridge director, a full programme of Bridge and a friendly First for Bridge host on hand throughout your stay, these fantastic holidays are the perfect winter escape.
English Bridge Union Congresses Highlights
First for Bridge are pleased to announce that we will be working in partnership with the English Bridge Union for both their UK and overseas congresses from 2021. Our carefully chosen accommodation packages will cover the EBU events, meaning you can relax and unwind in comfortable surroundings, in between an exclusive EBU managed Bridge programme. We will also organise and sponsor the two annual Overseas Congresses for the English Bridge Union for the next 5 years.
