A club for fans of Elinor M. Brent-Dyer's Chalet School

Please note: Due to circumstances beyond our control, the coach tour will now visit Saltaire and Haworth.

AGM update: We have a new venue! The Bradford Midland Hotel is a beautiful Victorian railway hotel dating from1890.

Please email agm@newchaletclub.co.uk if you have previously booked but the change of location means that you now cannot come.

Note that the Midland is charging less for twin rooms, so the cost for sharing a room is now £230 while the charge for single rooms remains at £280.

Insurance in case of cancellation

Once your place is confirmed, your deposit is non-refundable. There is limited scope for the refund of further sums paid for the weekend, (although we would do our best to help) so you might care to take out insurance for the weekend. If you have an annual holiday/travel insurance policy it may well cover you for trips within the UK, so do check with your insurer before taking out a special policy.

Payment can be made by cheque or bank transfer:

Cheques made payable to the New Chalet Club should be returned with the booking form to: NCC AGM, c/o Alison McCallum, 37 East Trinity Road, Edinburgh, EH5 5DL.
