This is the conference venue and is therefore ideal to stay for the duration.  We've negotiated a special deal with the 4 Star Hotel : A double or twin room for two nights bed and breakfast with dinner for two on the first night included is £185. This equates to £46.50 per person per night sharing a room with dinner included on the first night and full use of the spa.  Just mention the fact you're a delegate at the Mama Conference when you call to book.
