OK. I've been doing a bit more accomodation searching, and I think I've found something.
This looks to be available in November. It has 3 bedrooms (one double, 2 twin), so would sleep 6 if we're willing to share. It also has a heated indoor swimming pool :)
Unfortunately there's a 3-night minimum for booking, BUT it actually works out cheaper for 3 nights than the other place did for 2 nights, so we could just book for 3 and only stay 2? It's available on the 13th/14th AND the 20th/21st; I know sarah said she couldn't make the 13th and it's Arcadie's birthday weekend, so her time with us would be limited.
The list so far is:
Melk
IWCAS
BMI
PacificDogwood
Dalrymps?
sunshinesarah?
Evitas (staying with friends)
Flip (not staying over)
Arcadie(doesn't need accommodation)
The cottage is £290 for 3 nights, so between 6 of us it would be about £50 each. We could adjust for how many nights people want to stay and/or who's sharing or has a room to themselves.
SO the questions are:
- Who's still up for it, and which weekend suits you?
- How many nights do people want to stay?
- Who is happy sharing a room, and who would prefer a room to themselves?
If we end up needing more rooms, there is actually another 2 bedroom property on site which would cost an additional £250 for the same 3 nights.
I hope I'm not missing something obvious with this accommodation, but it seems like a good deal. So... answers please, ASAP!
