Sunday Times Where Was I? competition

The prize:

The winner and guest will stay for two nights, B&B, in a Lookout at the Tawny – a deconstructed luxury hotel in the 70-acre Consall Estate in Staffordshire. With the glass-walled Plumicorn restaurant at its heart, the Tawny offers a range of sumptuous, Scandi-inspired garden retreats, from double-sized shepherd’s huts to sleek, woodland lodges.

The Lookouts stand on a ridge overlooking one of the estate’s five lakes. Each has a freestanding bath by the window and a super-king bed. An e-buggy porter service takes care of any fetching and carrying, while bikes are on hand for exploring the estate’s rewilded park.

The prize also includes a three-course dinner for two at the Plumicorn (excluding drinks) and must be taken before August 1, 2026, subject to availability and excluding public holidays, as well as the period from December 24 to January 2.

The prize does not include insurance, transport, personal expenditure or incidental costs.

The prize is non-transferable and cannot be resold, used on another room type or extended.

There is no cash or alternative prize.

Does anyone else find that sometimes when you press submit, it just takes you back to the blank form rather than the "Thanks for entering" page? When it happens to me, I'm not sure whether I've entered or not.

Yes, all the time! It takes me to the thanks for entering bit but after a few seconds it goes back to the blank form and if I’m not paying attention I miss if I’ve entered or not

I get that sometimes but other times (eg today) it just goes back to the blank form!
