Ok - I'm going to throw this out there an ask for feedback.... I am awaiting replies from a few hotels but I wanted to run this by you and guage response.
Friday - arrive at hotel - Friday night attend Medieval Banquet with all the trimmings disco following - fancy dress optional but encouraged now who could be the court jester
Saturday - Day to do as you please - Saturday night - traditional Christmas meal with disco afterwards.
The Twist
The hotel that hosts the evening functions is top dollar but within 1½ miles is a Premier Inn with a Brewers Fayre attached (where you go for breakfast) and possibly a drink or two.
I'm awating prices for the whole thing to be at the one hotel and my experiences are that good discounts can be had but as an alternative I reckon for the price of 1 night B & B at the hotel you could have B & B at PI and cost of that evenings function with transport arranged so we can all have a drink or 2
.
Let me know your thoughts, am I on the right lines for what you guys would enjoy ?? personally, I've stayed at a few PI's recently and they've all been great....

Sounds good fun, but not sure that we will able to fit in the Zed afterwards!!
Two guesses who the jester could be? The initials B & G spring to mind readily. Now where can I hire a suit of armour!! Can I come dressed all in black, so that I can be a 'night' )

:-bd ANOTHER UPDATE - NEED SOME FEEDBACK FROM ALL INTERESTED PARTIES THEN DEPENDING ON THE FEEDBACK WE WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO THINK ABOUT MAKING A COMMITMENT TO GET THE BEST PRICES AND GUARANTEE OUR BOOKING
I have done some searching and have whittled it down to what looks like could be a good option.
Arrive Friday night – everyone arriving at various times (due to commitments) meet, greet, dine and drink at the on-site pub/restaurant (Taybarns) at the Premier Inn
Saturday – activities to be arranged – cruises, shopping, chilling out.
Saturday Night at Coombe Abbey which is 4 miles away so a number of shared taxis will get us there and back without breaking the bank.
Where we have a choice of a traditional meal - but it appears to be Chicken (not turkey) :-o or Medieval banquet with fancy dress encouraged. I thought this might be fun and something different and although I originally said both – I think it might work out quite expensive. Party night is £39 per person and Banquet is £49 per person.
Premier Inn does group bookings but do not price match the price available at the moment and are offering a guaranteed price of £59 per night per double room. As you can see from screenshot below – booking now you can get 2 nights for £58 BUT they advised me that this price may increase as bookings start coming in through the site so the earlier you book the better the price but they do have a lot of rooms at his “branch” so with any luck we’ll all get a good price.
Coombe Abbey can offer us a Party night meal or Banquet on the 1st or 8th of December (Saturdays) – you can see the details in the brochure attached.
So – let me know guys and gals....need some feedback from those interested... thanks

I am up for either date, love the idea of everything, to choose one I would go banquet and fancy dress for the fun of it. But happy with all your ideas :cool steer) Thinking about it I suppose that the earlier date would suit me as I think I might jump a plane and go somewhere for winter. who know maybe if I like the sound of what I hear from Board Brazil might be a good idea! no plans yet but flights get dearer closer to xmas.
I know the dates are wrong but the murder mystery look great! I did one for 14 once went brilliant. Never been to a professional one! Sorry meant to say it all looks great was not pushing anything I just like all the options.
Coventry area for me is a little over 200 miles so easily do-able compared to some I have already done
