The BAHVS 31st Conference Ballymaloe House, Shanagarry, East Cork, Ireland
28th, 29th & 30th June 2013
Next year’s BAHVS conference is going to be held in the middle of a 300-acre organic farm located in the lush, rolling countryside of East Cork and (just) within walking distance of the sea. By registering your interest now we can make sure that you:
Receive details of special accom- modation deals. Early bird bookings attracting a substantial discount.
Hear about the best travel deals. Huge savings possible now.
Have any extra requirements catered for.
Please note there will be plenty of things to do for any family members you may wish to bring as a full non- conference itinerary will be offered.
THE LOCATION
The event itself will take place at Ballymaloe House (www.ballymaloe.ie), in a converted agricultural building called the Grain Store (no prizes for guessing its past). There is the option of staying in Ballymaloe House (very com- fortable), a shared self-catering cottage on the farm (also jolly comfortable) or a nearby B&B. You may also camp.
THE NON-CONFERENCE BITS
The non-conference bits of the weekend are already organised and include a farm and garden tour, two splendid dinners, a visit to a local bar and (of course) Irish music.
A VERY SPECIAL WELCOME
It is probably worth mentioning that Ballymaloe is owned and run by the Allen family, who are strong supporters of homeopathy and have substantially reduced their prices in order to support the BAHVS.
