Ross-on-Wye is only 1/2 an hour away, it got 6 votes.

Shirley has reminded me that we are in fact defectors ourselves, Lancaster (100 miles) being my original suggestion.

Tewkesbury is over twice the mileage each way, happy to do this, to go with the flow & the masses.

Sorry you can't make it Leon, the 8th was the best value for money weekend in July.

There'll always be another opportunity some time.

Good job we've all booked the Travelodge, this important info. is from the PI website link above.

"This hotel is near a busy road so we've insulated our rooms to help you get a great night's sleep."

The Travelodge is also better value for money, with a bar & restaurant on site too.
