Meeting and pickup

Pickup points
You can choose a pickup location at checkout (multiple pickup locations are available).
Pickup details:

It’s best to arrive on the official start date, but there’s nothing planned until the evening welcome meal, so you can rock up anytime that day.
If you fancy coming a bit earlier, no worries we’ll still pick you up from the airport and sort you a room from the day you arrive. We can organise that once you’ve booked.
