Food and Restaurant: Having enjoyed some twelve holidays at this venue in 2008/9, Carole and I can confirm that the restaurant and the meals were rated highly by 98% of our guests. The restaurant ambience is very comfortable, with breakfast being self-service and your evening meals served at the table. |
Rooms & Public Areas: Refurbishment is nearly complete with a high standard of bathroom. The layout of the hotel means that you pass through the Reception, with the Bar to your right and the Restaurant to your left. The Ballroom, with a dedicated floor area of some 62ft by 27ft, is rated as one of the very best on which our guests have danced. Nearby: Literally just across the road from the hotel is the Uk's first and foremost outlet shopping centre, Clarks Village. With over 90 outlet shops to choose from offering up to 60% OFF rrp on a host of famous brands, you have all the retail therapy you will need. |

Feedback from Previous Breaks"We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the break. Everyone was very helpful and cheerful - they always seem to be smiling. The dancing was so good and I can't think of any improvements. My friends and I hope to come again in September, all being well." "We thoroughly enjoyed the holiday, especially the dancing in the lovely ballroom. We thank you both so much, and look forward to the next time. Best wishes." "On the whole, it was a very enjoyable weekend, good food, good company, and everyone was so very friendly. As for the music, wonderful as always. Thanks to you both for keeping it going with a lovely atmosphere. Floor was first class. We look forward to the next venue." "The Wessex Hotel far exceeded our expectations and the friendly staff are certainly working had with the modernisation and improvements. The ballroom was stunning and matched any other that I am aware of on the South Coast. Yes, we certainly had a super weekend and have booked again in September." "Overall, the hotel was excellent value for money. The ballroom was great for dancing. Will come again." "Hotel overall was first class. Ballroom one of the best. Bar prices reasonable. Staff helpful and courteous. Hotel was very clean and tidy and staff always prepared to assist. Will definitely be attending in the future. Music, as always, the best. Paul and Carole great hosts." "Tony and I felt the masterclasses were excellent. We are new to ballroom dancing and latin, and Cheryl and Jeffrey were very supportive to us. We have learned to do the Paso Doble (well almost) and we are going back next year. We thoroughly recommend to take the challenge. We had a fantastic weekend in Street. The hotel is good value for money, the food is excellent, and you are made to feel very welcome." |

This weekend also includes...Optional Masterclasses
"We really enjoyed the work with Bianca and Sacha. They were both so charming and so obviously committed and dedicated. They stress the intimacy and nature of the Argentine Tango making gestures and movement meaningful and lyrical, rather than "flashy and showy". Watching them, one was aware of an amount of intense concentration and communion between them, that was literally quite spell-binding. Enough said. We liked it! And also full of praise and thanks to you two for working so had to make it all work. Thanks"
"For a couple who have never attempted the Argentine Tango before, we felt the attention to the basics will give us a good base to refer to and to build on. Look forward to take this further at a future weekend."
"All round an excellent holiday, great atmosphere, lovely music and space to dance! Bianca and Sacha make lessons fun and work hard to share their passion for Argentine Tango."
