A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE – TUSCANY 2020
BRIDGE PLAYING HOLIDAYS WITH MARY ELSON
Your Bridge Playing Italian holiday consists of our special Tuscan Sun tours to places like Siena, Assisi, Cortona and Montepulciano, with Mary's expert tuition in Bridge when we are at home.
About your Tutor, Mary Elson.
Mary Elson has been playing bridge for many years and has played on several State teams.
She has been teaching for over 25 years and in 2015 was named Victorian Bridge Teacher of the Year. She has written two successful books which she sells privately.
Mary runs bridge holidays in rural Victoria. She has enjoyed the change in pace, and the challenges that running a successful holiday present, and is very much looking forward to the 2020 trip to Tuscany.
Mary’s bridge philosophy is that bridge is a game and we do it for fun; but of course, the more skilled we are the more we will enjoy ourselves. Teaching beginners and improving to intermediate players is Mary’s speciality area and she understands the difficulties students can encounter as they improve their skills.
2020 Italy Bridge Playing Holiday Details...
Stay in a Tuscan farmhouse just a few minutes drive to the nearest town, sharing marvellous homemade meals created by Rosalinda and her mother, Lilla, or sometimes just enjoying the quiet of your own apartment, sharing a living room and kitchen with one or two other guests.
All your breakfasts, three evening meals each week, wonderful farmhouse-style accommodation with large in-ground pool, transfers and stunning tours are included in the price. (As well as all the bridge, of course!) Rosalinda will drive you to a nearby restaurant on the nights we will be self-catering or you can enjoy making your own Italian meal in your own kitchen. (Of course, no-one will tell you that you can’t make steak and chips if you prefer!)
Regular half day and three full day tours are included each week and we shall visit such wonderful places as Siena, Perugia, Assisi, Cortona and Montepulciano among other trips. There will also be opportunities to visit Florence or Orvieto and the UNESCO World Heritage site San Gimignano.
Free: the best sunsets Tuscany can provide!
Bridge will be played every day, and there will be lessons available as well as play.
There are only twelve places available, and bookings are already coming in.
Dates are: Saturday August 22nd to Saturday September 5th 2020
Ring Mary on 0431 581 304 and have a chat about the holiday. If there is sufficient interest a
second holiday may be held from Sunday September 7 to Sunday September 21
Price per person will be approximately AUD$4150.00 (depending on the exchange rate), which includes a deposit of AUD$900, and the balance of €2050 in Euro plus optional single supplement.
Some reviews of the 2019 holiday:
Location: *Beautiful views overlooking valley. Wake to cocks crowing and church bells calling to service.
Hosts: *Host facility was excellent. Rosalinda was an excellent host, very friendly, even under pressure.
Tours: *Every trip was well organised and interesting
Food: *Utterly delicious. Suited me very well.
Bridge: *Good bridge play and lessons
Overall: * Excellent two week holiday. Enjoyed every minute of it.
