A visit to this “Kids’ Camp for Grownups” in Devon. 

Ireen and Ken enjoyed an excellent weekend at this amazing resort in November. It turns out that one or two other COPSErs have also been there and recommend it, so we have extended an invitation to the rest of COPSE to join us there in September. We have booked for the dates shown, others can be as flexible as they like.

Please contact Ireen in the first instance as she will arrange pricing for all once we know the level of interest. She has copies of the printed brochure – ask and she will provide!
