About our wargaming holiday centre in Crete
Total wargame experience
Wargame Holidays is the new, innovative way of indulging your wargaming passions. We have created a total wargame experience on the sun soaked island of Crete.
Join us for a week and enjoy four full days of uninterrupted gaming on our vast wargame table with thousands of figures. Each week is set up so that you can play a couple of two-day games from our growing menu of periods and scales.
There are rest days built in for you to visit the dozens of historical sites or to simply relax and enjoy the sunshine around the infinity pool.

The holiday in brief
Tuesday - Arrivals day
We pick you up from the airport. You then take your time to settle in to your accommodation and meet the others you'll be gaming with.
Wednesday and Thursday - Wargaming days
We start after a leisurely breakfast (included) on the veranda, pause for lunch and play on into the early evening.
Friday - Rest day
Why not hire a car and explore, laze around the pool or visit the capital, Heraklion.
Saturday and Sunday - Wargaming days
Play the second two-day game to a conclusion.
Monday - Free day
You can top up the tan, get in the duty-frees or indulge in some post-game analysis.
