The Machrie, Machrahanish and Machrahanish Dunes Early Autumn 2020

Hi all,

Would ideally like a £100 per person non refundable deposit by the middle of March.

The Machrie are wanting to know how many rooms we require and although people have put names down I havent seen any payment yet

You should have had 2 fat envelopes off me to date ?

Please note I have payments from certain individuals already.

Apologies if that wasn’t clear.

sent - thanks Glyn.

Have been thinking. We currently have a deposit down on the hotel at Tarbert for the Wednesday night so should we go to Arran on the Tuesday, play Shiskine on the Wednesday late morning then ferry Lochranza to Tarbert on the Wednesday night. My theory is that if there are ferry problems on the Wednesday we hopefully should still have chance to get one on the Thursday.

This trip all seems very complicated.

The ferry from Arran back is a stones throw, can't see there being any issues.

Thanks

 

[chellie]

Another q - where are you booked in at Arran? Not stalking but looking for a recommendation. Thanks

 

[chellie]

Badger knows this place so booked us in Blackwaterfoot Lodge

Thanks

Blackwaterfoot Lodge and the Kintyre Hotel are a five minute walk from Shiskine GC and fine for a night, both have ok restaurants and it's about a 35 minute drive to the Lochranza ferry. More hotels and restaurants in either Brodick or Lamlash, 25/35 minute drive to Shiskine and 40/50 minutes to Lochranza ferry

Hi Glynn....Amid the gloom of the current news situation, being positive I have sent you £200 as deposits for Donna and I.

Surely we'll be back in circulation at the end of September!

Thanks, lets hope it’s all over by then......

Right now it’s Le Golf National that’s slightly concerning me ?

OK,

So here is hoping this is still on in a few months.

I have no plans to cancel it unless absolutely necessary as these clubs will need our business as they are going to take a pounding this year from the lack of overseas visitors.

We need to support the clubs in the best way we can.

I have no issues if anyone needs to cancel though and its totally understandable.

When's the next payment due, and how much?

No rush.

The clubs are not chasing me and as long as its all paid one month before we go I am totally cool with it all.

I am not paying the clubs till its 100% certain we can go, I dont want anyone losing any money from whats going on right now.

Cool, you may have to remind me nearer the time though

I have only the ferries to book for a two week road trip... will hold off those for now. I think the hotels I've paid for so far will be covered by our annual travel insurance as booked way back. As you say, I wish I hadt booked yet as prices will tumble to attract visitors/soar as everyone wants to get away for a late break!

Blimey - I hope all is back to normal by then....spending a who summer in lock down isnt a good thought!

Oh I will do
