Our Own Hotel - Club TIS 
 
The Club TIS Hotel Residence opened on 28th March 2009 - this lovely little hotel was well known to many of you as the Everglades. On the retirement of the owners we decided to buy the hotel - it's perfect, just 60 seconds on foot to the school and offering comfortable bedrooms (some with sea-view) and all with private bathroom or shower room. The hotel has a lovely restaurant leading to a sunny, south facing terrace and delightful, secluded garden. The hotel also has Club TIS Café which is open for all students oat lunchtime on weekdays. The café has a great menu to suit all tastes and diets and pockets. Prices range from £3 for a Naan Pizza or daily pasta dish, £3.50 for soup, £4.00 for a salad and £5 - £6 for hot dishes. Feedback on the lunches is "delicious food". All diets are catered for, with an emphasis on vegetarian, Halal and Kosher restrictions. 
 
Now that we are well into year two of Club TIS we are very happy to report that we have already had a lot of repeat bookings. That is the best form of advertising.
