Secure Your Place At The Edinburgh Fringe Now!

Our ever-popular Edinburgh Fringe event is selling out once again so I’d advise you not to think about this one for too long. Only announced 2 weeks ago, there are just 3 places left.

We’ll be exploring the Fringe for 4days and 3 nights in prime city centre accommodation (breakfast, evening meals included and wine/beer), enough time to explore the best sights and sounds of the biggest festival in the world.

With shows galore, and with other festivals including the Edinburgh Tattoo, and the Edinburgh International Festival featured, you get 7 festivals in 1.

The city itself is perhaps the most beautiful and historic in the country and during this time, it comes alive in a hybrid of activity – street stalls, comedy shows, street parades and musicians galore. It’s impossible for there not to be entertainment that will have you laughing, singing, and dancing along and in a city that I dare you not to fall in love with.

Indulege Yourself In Champagne and Chocolate

After the enormous success of our wine nights, we thought we’d step things up wth Social Circle and Didsbury’s very own Champagne Tasting and Chocolate evening.

A great night for the fairer sex with both champagne and chocolate on the table. And men secretly love chocolate too, don’t they?

So let’s celebrate a great social occasion in style; with a range of glorious Champagne!

Compare and contrast some of the top names in Champagne. You’ll taste a range of different Champagnes, learn all about the Champagne region and production methods, and you’ll even get some handy hints on how to distinguish brands and match Champagne with different dishes. With your new found knowledge you will be able to host any event in style.

For those of you who want an event with a bit of sparkle, we offer specialised tastings of Champagne and/or Sparkling wines. Not only will you get to taste fantastic wines, you’ll also learn

• how to taste Champagne
• what to look for when evaluating a Champagne
• about the differences in wine making
• about the different mixes of grape varieties

Here’s a testimonial from one of the many who’ve enjoyed one of our celebrated Wine Tasting events:

“Well I have to be honest and say that I knew absolutely nothing about wine when I came to this even and found it far more fascinating than i assumed it would be. It was taught with an emphasis on fun and that made it far more interesting for me. I always made sme fantastic new friends. All in all, a great night!”

Did You Miss The Walking Weekend in Wales? Fear Not!

The Wales Walking Weekend went down a treat and as such, hot on the heels is our next one in Snowdonia in March.

If our testimonials from Rob and Catherine are anything to go by, a fantastic time was had and we expect an even better weekend in March with improved weather conditions and the woes of Winter behind us.

With 2 nights en-suite self contained accommodation, 2 breakfasts, 2 picnic lunches, 2 evening meals, and 2 guided walks all inluded in the price, what else could you possibly ask for?

And if you book now, you’ll save with our Early Bird Offer!

But just in case you need a little more convincing, here’s that testimonial from Catherine Walton, who attended our last weekend:

I would recommend this trip to anyone as a great way to spend your weekend!  This was my first event and I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I was made to feel relaxed from the moment we arrived at the lodge – everyone was really friendly and genuinely interested in meeting new people.  On top of that, the location was beautiful – a definite contrast to the Manchester landscape!  I’m definitely glad I went and will sign up on more Social Circle events for sure.

Earn Money By Recommending Your Friends to Social Circle

Do you find yourself telling your friends about Social Circle? Well we thought it would only be fair to reward you if you do.
Also, if your refer your company,  we are making it even more rewarding for you!

You only have to refer 6 people and if they become members, that’s an entire 6 months membership paid for. 4 more and that’s a year of Social Circle membership free…just for telling your friends what you get up to at the weekend.

By getting your friends on board, it makes events that much more appealing. Of course, they don’t necessarily have to have the same tastes as you. So don’t forget to tell them about the range of events that we do…social events, activities, weekends away, and group holidays.

So all you have to do is encourage your friends and colleagues to get social and active and you shall be rewarded for doing so. Not bad eh?
