Cheltenham - a little out of town, but convenient for motorway + Gloucester. Maybe getting a bit tired, but it's usually reasonably quiet, although occasionally local teenagers congregate in the car park at night. On a deal it's far cheaper than other local hotels/B&Bs - I've got three nights for £27 total booked in June.

Hi Staying at Cheltenham for the Air Tattoo this year. Have found that there is a Harvester on the same road. Anyone know how close it is and also where there is locally for brekkie? Supermarket/Wetherspoons etc??

Just got back from a great 3 night break at the C/Garden Travelodge (the one almost next door but one to Shaftsbury Ave Theatre)

Cost £19 per night

Basic but very clean room

Warm, considering the temp outside was minus something!

Hot/strong shower

Quiet

Comfy bed (too soft for us, but slept well)

Plenty of tea/coffee, and when we asked for more it was no problem

Good view over city (from 8th floor)

TV stations with radio (for weather reports!) was good

As there was just 2 of us, we had breakie in "ola" a cafe round the corner for £4.95 for freshing cooked full english with tea/coffee. This set us up for the day.

If your just expecting a bog standard Travelodge stay you won't be disapointed, and to be honest for 3 nights for £57 in Covent Garden, I don't think you can go wrong!:beer:

Hi there. Does anyone know what the Burton Travelodge on the M6 northbound is like? We will most likely be staying there in June.

Ellidee

Udell do you mean Burton in Kendal ? If so it's ok BUT ask for a room at the back. When we stayed there a couple of years ago we were woken at silly o'clock by lorries parked nearby warming their engines up ! :mad:

Hi Ellidee, I think this Travelodge is near Kendal but on their website, it is classed as in Carnforth. (Right on the M6 going Northbound). It is actually called Burton. I can see that there is another one in Kendal too.

Ellidee

Udell it IS the same one I'm sure - south of Kendal on the northbound M6. The lorry park is (or was) near the front - I have heard from other people that if you ask for a room at the back you can't hear it.

We never buy the breakfasts - take out own cearel & milk ect
Take an extra blanket & earplugs - i cant sleep if i am cold or if its noisy

BATH RIVERSIDE - pnly time we paid for breakfast - lovley view of the ducks short walk to town parking not free - best one so far will go again

Burton a38 southbound - handly location for Bloodstock music festival at caton hall (walkable) little chef next door

Chester northop hall - on A55 but well back of the road so v quiet - had a lovely view of sheep from window -sink cracked - no machines reception but there was a petrol station next door - would use for hammerfest in prestyn if we go again

Leeds central vicar lane - right in city centre big carpark nearby on a main road very buzy windows quite old (we stayed a couple of years ago)
Perfect for visiting leeds rios 2 buildings down the road. shops a few buildings the other way - would go back

Leicester markfield bit grubby cant remember anything good - quite near donnington park for the free renault f1 race day

london city airport - had a great view of the runway, docks + excel centre from window
in business districtnothing within walking distance for tea we had pizza in the cafe good dlr links for O2 ect - outside of congestion charging area

Lowestoft - quiet next to a big tesco for breakfast good road links
40min from latitude festival site

Nuneaton Bedworth - my worst - never going back got lost on way
near a retail park but didnt visit near to nuneaton - looked very rough

Preston central - NOT VISTED BUT KNOW THE AREA - VERY ROUGH

Preston chorley - NOT VISTED BUT KNOW THE AREA - quite ROUGH

Ringwood (southampton) - on a very buzy roundabout & road noisy
had to pay for parking little chef is underneath good road links (we went to Monkey world & the tank museum next door) only worth the £9 we spent

WOLVERHAMPTON Central - free car park with token to exit - been refurbished new tv ext city centre walkable- would be happy to go there again nice town

York Central - excellent location just inside city walls (castle museum on other side of river) car park expensive but puts u in walking distance of whole town.
we got put in the room over the bar it was hot & people smoked outside not nice - asked to be moved but told no other rooms available _ might use again if cheap enough

York tadcaster - good for shopping get the park and ride in to town and save on car park fees
bit noisy as on a main road but would use again

My sister and her family have stayed in this one more than once. She finds it clean with friendly, helpful staff who went out of their way once to help when her car had broken down.

Next to a BP garage with a wild bean cafe for brekkie, or McDonalds / KFC / Frankie and Bennys / Beefeater / All you can eat chinese / Brewers Fayre on retail park 2 minutes drive away. Or cross the road and go in Nuneaton hospital for food if desperate!

Hi, just wondered if anyone has stayed in the Penrith Travel Lodge?

Many thanks

Hi All,

I am expecting to stay at the gatwick airport travelodge sometime soon, and was wondering if it was nice? I have never stayed at a TL before, but one thing on the site worries me:

Travelodge have 60 onsite parking spaces, on a first come first served basis.

As I do not expect to arrive until at least 10pm, I am concerned about this and I have e-mailed TL and they just copied this from the site.

My other alterative is Leatherhead - any expieriences on this?
