Ladies please note, the ballroom has a superb dance floor, with great acoustics. However, if external doors are opened for cool fresh air, and this makes for a wonderfully comfortable temperature on the dance floor, for ladies, when not actively participating in the dancing, a “wrap” may be appropriate.
Dancers, we have asked the hotel not to serve dinner until everyone is seated. For those considering pre-dinner drinks, please leave plenty of time to ensure you do not delay dinner being served on time.

Dancers, many of our guests are often surprised (and initially disappointed) when they see only two hours’ dancing every evening. Carole and I have been hosting mid-week breaks now for nearly ten years, and we have found that eight hours’ dancing over four days, is still too much for many of our guests. When we say ‘too much’ by Wednesday/Thursday night the floor is often less than half full, as we all have only so much energy. Added to that, with your explorations and sightseeing during the day, our experience has proven, the time allocated to dancing would more than fulfil your expectations. However, Carole and I would be delighted to extend any evening’s dancing if you would like us to do so. We use a phrase “if you have the energy, we have the music” and therefore, if as a group, you would like any extra dancing, you only need ask.
Finally, at Dance Breaks we ask all our guests to be considerate of others both on the dance floor and, in particular, we ask that dancers do not assume that because they sat in one set of seats on the first night that those seats are theirs for the remainder of the break. We do not encourage people to leave shoes/bags on seats or tables….. we would simply ask you if seating is somehow important to you?…. please arrive at the ballroom early after dinner.

Dancers, teaching over many hours, is incredibly exhausting. During the brief break between masterclasses, your teachers need a moment to collect their thoughts and consider the next session, and try to grab a drink. Their lunchtime is equally valuable to them, and we would ask you, as dancers, to understand and respect that, whilst they want to be available to you, these short periods between and after your sessions need to be their personal time. Whilst we understand that you only want to ask a brief question, or exchange a pleasantry, or even thank them, we would be grateful if you could find an alternative time to do that, preferably during your workshop. In any event, we would respectfully request that you leave your session promptly to ensure the daily timetable runs on schedule and your courtesy towards teachers in allowing them their private time, would be greatly appreciated.
