BtP has arranged good prices at Ifracombe House Hotel in Southend-on-Sea at 9–13 Wilson Road, Southend-on-Sea, Essex SS1 1HG; phone 01702 351000; FAX 01702 393989 (thanks, Bertie). This is where Palers habitually stay for No Stiletto Shoes gigs in Southend: it is clean, comfortable and convenient.

Luxury double room 4 74 GBP
Standard double room 4 69 GBP
Single room 3 45 GBP
'Compact' (double bed in single room) 2 64 GBP for 2 persons

These prices are in force from Sunday 15 July until
departure on Friday 20th: they include tax and breakfast

The apartments (details here) have two double bedrooms (individually lockable), living-room, kitchen and bathroom: they cost 90 GBP daily overall for 4 people, or 80 GBP for 2 people, including tax and breakfast. When you mail us (see below) say if you'd like to share an apartment (great savings, more space!). The apartments are 'themed' as follows: Medieval, Roman, Oriental, and Italian (with two bathrooms)!

Don't book yet! You'll need a special code to get access to our reserved accommodation.
To stay at the BtP negotiated discount rate, click here to send us an e-mail: clearly state how many people there are in your party, what sort of accommodation you want, and for how many nights. (BtP is not booking the rooms for you, but we'd like the information so we know what rooms are left). We shall send you the booking-code, and you will contact the hotel yourself – say the magic word – and confirm your order with your credit card.
