Due to operational issues the next Walk & Talk has been re-scheduled.

It will now take place at 09:00 on Wednesday the 30th of March and will be restricted to 1 hour.  Any resident interested in joining us in our regular inspection of Regatta Point should email directors@regattapoint.co.uk to let us know that you are coming – and then meet in the lobby at 9am.  We hope to see you there.

Directors’ Meeting 22nd March 2016

The Directors of Regatta Point Freehold Limited met for a regular meeting in order to discuss various matters arising in the running of the building. The following are highlights of the discussions.

  • Fire Enforcement Notice – work is now complete and was delivered at a fraction of the expected cost. New “In case of fire” procedures to be implemented.  Carpets to be deep cleaned.
  • Lobby – work to be done to touch up paint work and buy new furniture and trees for pier.
  • Gym – work to be done to refurbish (remove wall, install windows, re-decorate).
  • St George’s and Bugler developments coming to a close. All items are in hand.
  • St James are proving very responsive to lorry issues when raised.
  • Sauna – ongoing issues with operation and damp. Drain now unblocked so watching brief to see if this improves the situation.
  • Windows – directors to meet again once residents’ questionnaire responses have been collated and surveyor has reported on state of windows.

Next meeting 7th June 2016 19:30

New Guest Room Booking Policy

We have been listening to residents’ feedback about the cancellation policy for the guest rooms and the views of our caretaker regarding the administration of the service.  As a result we are changing the policy to make it fairer, easier for Oscar and to reflect the administrative costs of a cancellation.

With immediate effect, and applying to existing bookings:

  • Reservations (note, not payment) of up to 14 consecutive nights should be made with the caretaker.  More than 14 nights requires Directors approval and may involve additional conditions.
  • Payment must be made in full (no cash) one week before the reservation or immediately if it is less than a week before the required date.
  • There will be a fee of £20 for any cancellation made within the week prior to the required date including instances where there is less than a week before the required date.
  • Oscar, our Caretaker, must be contacted to discuss all arrangements.
