Your Bridge Programme
Our bridge programmes will vary according to the length of your break, and, in addition to playing bridge, we try to include interesting bridge seminars, hosted by your EBU-qualified director.
Your duplicate bridge will be available every evening between 7:45pm and 11:15pm. We endeavour to vary these evening sessions, balancing between teams and pairs and featuring at least one Swiss event during a two-week break.
Bridge will also be offered some afternoons between 2:30pm and 4:45pm. These sessions are normally given over to open pairs/teams.
Masterpoints are awarded on evening bridge sessions, and on day sessions with over 5 tables.
During your bridge holiday, nothing is obligatory, and you can play in as many or as few bridge sessions as you wish. We don’t forget you are on holiday and our bridge programmes also allow time to relax, giving the opportunity for you to explore the surrounding area.
Make your own way to the hotel. Enjoy a welcome drink and dinner followed by evening bridge.

Today we head to Harewood House for an included visit.
Harewood House is one of England's Treasure Houses. The family seat of the Lascelles family, it was built in the 18th century for Edwin Lascelles. In the 20th century, the house was lived in by Princess Mary, the only daughter of George V, after she married Henry Lascelles in 1922. Harewood Estate occupies a beautiful rural setting with 100 acres of gardens, including the Lakeside Bird Gardens.
At Harewood this festive season, visitors will experience beautifully decorated festive rooms. We include a light lunch here with ample time to explore the house and grounds before returning to our hotel.
Dinner is followed by evening bridge.
