    Which travelodge do you stay at when you go to Alton Towers? Uttoxeter looks the nearest but I couldn't get any cheap ones there last time, just Asbourne. Have you stopped at Ashbourne?

    There is a Tuesday 4th Sept at Blackpool for £12 but the next day is £32.50 atm. I don't book for one day, minimum 2 in case we get there late.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    Uttoxeter always the best as in town near other things pubs/restaurants/shops. Nothing near Asbourne I haven't stayed but Sister did if we couldn't get Uttoxeter we stayed on the M6 about 30/45 mins drive thou

    No 28th Oct/02 nov half term:j

    Also just managed to book Sat in Edinburgh £12 on 22nd Dec dithering about Fri & Sun as still showing at £19 normally its the Sat you can't get so booked hoping now the Fri & Sun will change to lower price. This is handy for swapping presents with DS girlfriend as they can't get time off over Christmas preying get the Sun cheaper as DH don't like travelling Sun on trains as he knows what it can be like:D;)

    How you getting on Blue with Blackpool

    For the extra £7/14 I would book the fri and sun ones now, cos if they go to £12 they might get booked up anyway.

    I cannot get any at the south prom blackpool travelodge for £12/19 except for beginning of november after the lights have finished. I can get the central one but there is no parking and it is above the clubs/pubs so would prefer to be at the other one. No joy at uttoxeter or ashbourne either at the moment, unless it's when the park is closed in nov. It seems like it's the Nov ones they are putting on or Sundays.

    Blue are you tied to just weekends or can go anytime noticed uttoxeter at £19.50 for Sept on a few days in a row that is pretty good for that one maybe even if you can get one of the £12 with a £19.50 wld still be pretty good as this a very popular travelodge especially as next to racecourse also.
