Help!

Everywhere is fully booked :eek:, anyone have any good suggestions where we can go for just the night (Saturday) within the UK and away from London (has to be driveable)

Really really would appreciate your advice.

How about South Wales - is the other half a rally fan? :)

I'm going to the scooby ball in Nottingham! Join us for a drink after! ;)
There is a really nice hotel in Brockenhurst in the New Forest, can get details if you like mate.
Otherwise..Bewts-y-Coed(sp) in North wales, very nice again.
And the Chewton Glen Hotel in New Milton, v nice, expensive though...

You could try a place calle Combe House in Honiton, near Exeter. Lovely Elizabethan house in parkland, decent food and the owner's a nice guy too.

The Cotswolds...Place called Bourton-On-The-Water. Very picturesque, with lotsa nice shops.

Works for me, anyway ;)

How about ragdale Hall, a fantastic spa/health place - near Melton Mowbray off M1 - absolutely superb! Has won best Spa in UK for the last 3 years.

Cotswolds is a top, top suggestion - we love it around there.

Alternatively, York's nice but a fair way for you...

Kosy 23 November 2001 12:11 PM

I know its far away but how about St Andrews?

There are lots of nice hotels, and every girl i have brought here from home loves it. Pretty town, golf courses, and a nice beach.
I think it would go down a treat.

If you want any information on the hotels just ask and i'll get it for you.

Good luck,

Kos.

Blow Dog,
I told you this before ;), get a Which Good Food Guide, I've never been let down by it. All over the country.

Cammy

Our personal favorite is Kinnaird House in Dunkeld, just North of Perth so probably too far but loads of other good places in there. Many of whom have rooms as well.

The Lowry Hotel in Manchester is top drawer (a tad expensive), within shouting distance of the city centre. A taxi ride takes you to Gary Rhodes restaurant (excellent).

If you need any more info give me a shout.
