Where is Leicester, Massachusetts? |
Leicester is just west of Worcester, Massachusetts. We are also about an hour east of Boston and an hour north west of Hartford. New England's two busiest airports are in Boston and Hartford so getting flights should be pretty easy and affordable.
|
|
How do I get to Leicester from the airports? |
If you are renting a car, you can follow the driving directions below. There are shuttles to Worcester, but they are relatively expensive and not as reliable as your very own rental car. We may also be able to arrange a ride from the airport, let us know when you are arriving and we'll see what we can do. |
Do you have driving directions to Leicester? |
We have created a map with detailed directions. We strongly recommend our map vs. mapquest or yahoo as they get bogged down on a lot of the smaller local roads. Click here to view the directions. |
What are the most convenient airports to Leicester? |
Worcester Regional Airport (Allegiant Air)
Boston's Logan Airport (AirTran, America West, American, ATA, Continental, Delta, JetBlue, Midwest, Northwest, Song, United, US Airways, Virgin Atlantic)
Hartford's Bradley Intl. Airport (America West, American, Continental, Delta, Midwest, Northwest, Southwest, United, US Airways)
Manchestesr Airport (Comair, Continental, Delta, Northwest, Southwest, United, US Airways) |
How far is the tournament hotel from the course? |
The hotel is about 8 miles (20 minutes) from Maple Hill. This is a guess. |
Do I need a rental car? |
It is not necessary but recommended. There is no substitute for being prepared, and all rental cars have tops that can be put up. If inclement conditions prevail, you will benefit from having appropriate gear readily available. Plus, if the weather is great, you will benefit from having a convertible readily available, and the weather is supposed to be great. Click here to check the almanac. |
Where should I eat my first dinner in the area? |
We would recommend that you support the Restaurant Sponsors who are helping to make this touranment bigger and better than some of us ever imagined. Although others of us knew we could pull it off, thanks to our Restaurant Sponsors. |
How soon should I book a departing flight on Sunday after the Championship ends? |
Why would you want to leave us? You are welcome to stay Sunday night and have a relaxed day of travel Monday. Anyway, once you've tasted our cooking, you are going to call home to have them send your favorite bowl and be done with it. Tournament play should finish by 4:00 PM. The Awards ceremony should finish by 5:30 PM. Allow 1.5 hours drive time to the airport and at least 1 hour to check in. |
