Unique Bridge

Overview

Our Unique Bridge holidays are exactly as it says on the tin – unique in every way! With this collection, you can play the game you love at a remarkable or iconic location or even have a special guest join us! 

Because of the unique venues, you might find that the bridge rooms and tables vary in shape and size – but that’s part of the experience. After all, it’s not every day you get to play your favourite card game somewhere amazing. 

Each holiday is designed to offer you variety, choice and the chance to experience something new, which means your holiday and bridge sessions may vary in length. Your bridge programme will include duplicate bridge sessions with Masterpoints awarded, and on some holidays relaxed duplicate sessions without Masterpoints will run simultaneously throughout your stay. Daytime and evening bridge sessions may be included before or after your unique experience – please see individual holidays for details. 

Led by our EBU-qualified directors and friendly hosts, it’s easy for you to relax and focus on what you came for: great games in unforgettable locations or enjoying a special guest visit. As places may be limited, book early to avoid disappointment and enjoy a wonderful bridge-playing experience to cherish for a lifetime.
