Girlfriend and myself are looking for nice hotels near Silverstone to stay for a few days near the end of July.
Can anyone recommend somewhere please?
Cheers

Depends how far you are prepared to travel

Fawsley Hall nr Daventry is pretty good - some of the F1 teams use it during the GP weekend - probably around 10 miles from Silverstone.

Alternatively there are some good hotels in Buckingham - can't think of the name of the best one right now but if thats the one you want I will ask my friends who live there if you like.

Regards

Robin

Hi mate

If you want something a little more homely there's a great pub in Blakesley (where I live) called The Bartholomew Arms (about 4 miles from the track) or a really good farmhouse B&B in Adstone which is about a mile further away. Friends of ours stayed there following my wife's 4oth birthday bash and the breakfast is to die for (alledgedly).

Let me know if you need any telephone numbers.

Cheers
Kav

For somewhere reasonably priced with a MASSIVE bed in a nice old pub try

England's Rose: Upper Green, Moreton Pinkney, Daventry, NN11 3SG
Tel : 01295 760353

A bit weird as there are pics of Princess Di everywhere! Food is good and the floorshow provided by the Lady who runs it and her toy boy lover kept us entertained. This was a couple of yrs ago and I suppose things change but it's worth a punt imbetween staying in the posher places.

Had lunch there about 5 years ago - more trinkets than a trinket emporium at a convention of trinket hyper-markets, I seem to remember.
