Tree Surgery Course Merrist Wood, Looking for a place to stay and tips

[siewart]

Hi,

 

My name is Siewart and I am coming from the Netherlands, I am going to do the 9 week tree surgery course on Merrist Wood in April. I am looking for a place to stay. What do you reccomend?

 

Also do you have some tips or so for when I do the course?

 

Thanx alot.

 

Greetings,

Merrist wood has rooms to rent speak to college!

Get a caravan or motor home to rent....should be cheapish

when I did the course there some 15 odd years ago (it was a 10 week course then) I stayed on campus, so worth speaking to the college to see if they still offer accomadation. If not look for Local "Bed and Breakfast" accomadation places, and see if you can get a reduced rate for as you will be staying for 9 weeks.

Hi siewart, best of luck, as others have said contact the college for a list of local places.

 

Do you mind me asking how much you paid for the course, I did it 20 years ago and the lad who works for me would like to do it.

 

Tips... Have all your safety gear bought beforehand, keep you folder tidy and organised. Enjoy it!

When I did mine in 2008, I worked part-time before and registered for working tax credits.

As a result my course was free.

I only paid the exam fees.
