Ambleside Scrabble holidays

DICTIONARIES are at the ready at an Ambleside hotel in preparation for a Scrabble holiday.

The Scrabble break has been launched at the Rothay Manor Hotel in the wake of a national resurgence of interest in the game.

But bookings started to pour in after the hotel's advertisement appeared next to an on-line version of the game, Scrabulous, on networking site Facebook.

Now the five-day break in March has attracted a raft of media interest including coverage by The Guardian newspaper and Radio Solent.

Anne-Marie O'Neill, marketing manager for the Rothay Manor Hotel, said she had been surprised and delights by interest the new holiday venture.
