McDonald Berystede Hotel and Spa, Ascot for New Year

Hi everyone,

I have booked for the Ascot break over New Year. This is the first time I've been away for New Year with FT. 

I've booked for 2 nights but I'm considering another night. Is anyone else staying for 3 nights?

Just the 2 nights for me. My first with this group was last year to Turkey. Hardly anyone used this format prior to the trip which was full, so don't be disheartened you've had little response. 

Hi, certainly fancy this location for the New Year. Since it's a bit far for me to travel, I may also book an extra day. I live near Newcastle.
I would be happy to do a local trip on New Year afternoon, if the guide can advise.

I've decided to work on 2nd Jan. So I won't be doing an extra night after all.
