We appreciate many of you will be missing dancing and although our group dance holidays are on hold for the moment we want you to have the opportunity to enjoy a staycation at some of our best hotels.

Our ‘Dance’ hotels are unique. With so few hotels around the UK with good ballrooms, they need your support to survive. That’s why Steven and Helen have negotiated special rates for you and your families to take advantage of until our group dance holidays can resume.

As hotels open and are ready to take bookings we will add their details below. All you need to do is call the hotel quoting the reference DANCE2020 in order to receive the special rate. 

Hotels include: 

Bedford Hotel, St Annes – 01253 724636 – now taking bookings for accommodation and Sunday lunches.

Kensington Hotel, Llandudno – 01492 876784 – awaiting Welsh Government

Rendezvous Hotel, Skipton –01756 700100 – ask for Elizabeth. 

Cross Keys Hotel, Kelso – 01573 223303 – offering free upgrades subject to availability. 

Please support these hotels. We want to guarantee we have somewhere to dance in the future. If you use other hotels which you feel would like our support please get in touch and we will contact them. Thank you Steven and Helen
