GU Delta Club  55th Anniversary  Reunion  May 2025

 

Programme

 

Arrangements for the upcoming reunion are now almost complete with 120 people booked.

 

Contrary to the last email please note that there will be the usual informal get together on the Thursday morning.  In addition guests can make use of hotel facilities such as the pool, spa, and gym or perhaps visit local attractions.

 

The hotel has indicated that spa treatments etc. sell out very quickly so if you are hoping for a bit of pampering during your stay then you are advised to book with the hotel soon.  Check their website to see what is available.  https://seamillhydro.co.uk/leisure-club/

 

Please note that as club funds are rapidly diminishing we will require a levy of £20 per club member to be paid in cash at registration on the Wednesday. (We cannot accept cheques or card payments – sorry).

Golf has been arranged on the Portland Troon Course for those wishing to play on the Thursday.

 

In the area:-

 

  • Kelburn Castle and Country Park (6.5 miles) Stunning woodland glen with a number of trails and paths for exploring. Trek to the top of the glen and you’ll be rewarded with incredible views across the Firth of the Clyde and over to the Isle of Arran.

 

  • Largs  (8 miles) A good place for a walk along the prom and an ice cream at the famous Art Deco Nardiini’s Café/Restaurant.  A short ferry trip will take you to Great Cumbrae where cycles can be hired to cycle round the island.

 

 

 

 

 

  • Bute  Take the ferry from Wemyss Bay (14 miles) and sample the delights of Rothsay or visit the magnificent Mount Stuart House and gardens

 

  • Arran  A day trip to Arran might just be possible but would require an early start

 

  • Glasgow shopping / sightseeing (Trains every hour to Glasgow from West Kilbride station)

NB Glasgow shopping is not what it used to be but there are many other attractions.
