Wedding at Marsham court Hotel Bournemouth

Image
Since March last year, there have been severe restrictions on weddings — when they’ve been allowed at all. However, the Government’s roadmap out of lockdown includes first relaxing and then getting rid of the restrictions. So beat the rush and book your post-lockdown wedding at Marsham Court Hotel . A Bright Future for Weddings at Marsham Court Hotel Until the later part of May, weddings are restricted to fifteen guests, including the couple but excluding those attending in a professional capacity, such as the celebrant. However, the next stage of the roadmap will see this increased to thirty from the 17th of May. On 21st June, the plan is to get rid of most lockdown restrictions. Again, this depends on continued success in the fight against the virus, but there’s every reason to hope that this will go to the timetable. This means Marsham Court Hotel will be able to offer a full range of weddings — and we anticipate high demand. However, if you still have good reason to remain cautious...

Looking for a Dog-Friendly Hotel After the Lockdown? Try Marsham Court Hotel

Image
  After a year of lockdown, we're all longing for the chance to get away for a holiday break. The latest word is that holidays abroad could be a long time coming back, but you can have a great family holiday in the UK. And, if family means your dog, too, Marsham Court Hotel in Bournemouth is the perfect place for you. Holidays from May at Marsham Court Hotel?   The Government's roadmap out of lockdown currently predicts that restrictions on travel and hotels within the UK should be lifted by May.

Of course, this won't be exactly the same as it would have been a couple of years ago. Although the vaccine should protect us, it doesn't mean we can become careless about safety.   We spent the first lockdown putting safety measures and protocols in place, and each of these will be ...

Plan Your Post-Lockdown Team Building at Marsham Court Hotel

Image
It's been a long winter of lockdown, where business meetings have been entirely restricted to using Zoom and other online platforms. While these have been lifesavers, they hardly compare to being in the room with people. Fortunately, there's light at the end of the tunnel, with plans for a gradual easing of lockdown in place. It may be a few months, but perhaps it's time to start to think about booking meetings for your business — especially team-building. If you're anywhere within reach of Bournemouth, Marsham Court Hotel is the perfect venue. Why is Team-Building So Important?   The past year is likely to have been incredibly stressful for your employees. Even if you've been able to keep the workplace open, they'll have been negotiating a whole raft of safeguards and restrictions, making normal team interaction difficult. It's more likely that they've been either furloughed or working from home. While home-working has its advantages, it does mean t...

Three Great Reasons for Holding a Conference at the Marsham Court Hotel

Image
  Since March, no-one’s been thinking about holding live conferences. For the first few months, it wouldn’t have been allowed, and even now many people would have doubts about attending. However, live events need to start coming back, as long as it can be done safely, and that’s where the MarshamCourt Hotel can help. Live Conferences Are Better than Online Online platforms like Zoom or Teams have been invaluable during the lock down and are still likely to be playing a role in the “new normal” — at least as far as meetings are concerned. Conferences are an entirely different matter, though. Conferences need a high degree of interaction to work effectively, whether that's a matter of open discussion or the ability to see both speaker and presentation simultaneously. While these aren't impossible on the online platforms, the format doesn't suit them. A great conference also needs to have plenty of flexibility built into its structure. Delegates may want to move bet...

Conferences in the Real World — Why Not Head for Bournemouth?

Image
  In recent months, we've all become used to holding business meetings and conferences on Zoom and other online platforms. That's been a lifesaver, but it still doesn't compare with a real-world, in-person conference. However, we're gradually and cautiously moving out of Lock down, and it's now possible to start thinking of holding face-to-face conferences again — as long as you're in a venue that's safe for social distancing. Why Hold Your Conference in Bournemouth ? There's a long tradition of holding conferences on the south coast, and for very good reasons. Your delegates will not only feel more relaxed and positive in the mild climate and healthy sea air, but they can also take in the attractions of the seaside. Bournemouth has been one of the premiere south-coast resorts for around two centuries. When not inside, your delegates will be able to enjoy not only the superb beaches, but also many of the town's many attractions. Marsham Court...
