Bridge School and Holiday at Almuña
Two summer bridge breaks in the comfort and incredible setting of Almuña under the expert tuition of Zebedee Stocken, a young, accomplished and charming teacher. There will be a table for intermediate players and another for beginners who are patiently and quietly nurtured.
Zeb runs Bridge clubs in Dulwich and Blackheath and has many years experience of teaching and hosting Bridge events. For more information see www.StockenBridge.co.uk.
The Bridge programme will have a mixture of teaching and supervised play - all played in a fun and friendly environment. The standard of Bridge for both trips will be for players of an intermediate standard as well as beginners.
During the morning session there will be tuition using Compass Cards (set deals) and a fun topic tailored to the group. In the pre-dinner session there will be supervised play and after-dinner Bridge is always a popular option for the energetic! On one morning there will be an organised excursion to the historic city of Ronda, which is under an hour away, and one of the most spectacular drives in Europe.
The weather should be perfect at this time of year to play outside during the day and at night under a constellation of stars. A good lunch and a quiet afternoon lazing by the pool can be the perfect antidote to a morning of deep concentration!
Non-Bridge playing husbands, wives and partners are welcome provided that they are sharing a room with a Bridge player!
"Their hillside farm just beyond Gaucín provides a cosseted introduction to rural Spain. There are feasts of fine views, food and wine to set you up." - Juliet Shaw Woman’s journal
