The dinner will be held in the Captain Jack's event space at Wookey Hole Caves - near the ticket office in the old mill building. The Captain's bar is there too.
The dinner includes a welcome drink which will be served either in Chamber Three of the caves, or in the Captain's bar, for those not wanting to go to Chamber Three.
The venue has been hired for the exclusive use of the MCG's 70th anniversary dinner.
Wookey Hole Hotel
There should still be several rooms reserved for us at the adjacent Wookey Hole Hotel https://www.wookeyhotel.co.uk/. We have a special code you can use to book one of these - please ask for it by submitting one of the forms below. There is also plenty of accommodation available nearby in Wells, which should only be a short taxi ride away. If there is sufficient demand, we will consider running transport to and from the cottage - at cost.
