Accommodation

Here are the options for local accomodation.
The Mills, where many of the events are based and is really the home of the Meeting, has been booked by us for the duration. It's where we put the teachers and lecturers etc.
But all the places below have available rooms during the Cruinniú:

Weston House Ballyvourney.
Ph. Peggy Twomey at 026 45097
- 10 mins walk from centre, but directly beside The Mills Inn which will hosts a lot of the events, sessions etc.

Abbey Hotel, Ballyvourney.
Ph. - 026 45324
theabbeyhotel@eircom.net
Closest location to where the classes are held. About two minutes walk

New since 2008 is:
Bun a Bhaile B & B, which is in Cúíl Aodha village and about two and a half miles from the Mills, another mile from the classes. Therefore more suited to those with their own transport. Great place to stay though, people are still talking about the breakfasts!
www.bunabhaile.com
Ph. 353())26 45213

Should be room for every body!

Registration with Paypal

How to Register for the Flute Meeting.
Places are reserved on the receipt of a 75 Euro deposit. The full fee is 150 Euro, with the balance payable at the event.
We have set up a PayPal account using the flutemeet@gmail.com address as probably the simplest way to do this.
If you're not able to do it in this way, we can also accept payments by credit card directly, if you phone us at +353(0)2645209.
If possible use the PayPal method as it makes financial matters a lot simpler for everybody.
Plenty of places still available, but lots registering, so don't wait too long.
Next post here will give details of accomodation and travel.
Great to see all the returnees from the first two meetings, and looking forward to seeing you all in April!
