Accom for Donington Time Attack - Do you need?

Post by duncan »

I am writing around to try and sort out local accommodation for the Donington Round of TA.

Checklist:
- local (within 15 mins drive)
- secure parking
- cheap ish
- wifi

This rules out the likes of travel lodge for me and some of the larger hotels.

I have provisionally asked about the saturday night only as most of us will be doing Club Challenge.

I have found a couple that might be suitable - we may be able to get a better deal as a block booking.

Anyone else interested?

In that case your best go-faster mod for the new season might be a diet :lol:

I'll probably camp tp keep the costs down, but not at the show, that would be daft.

just so you know there is a village near by called Castle Donnington. Some very there and never had any trouble with cars. Also near the South entrance (i think) there is a small cottage type hotel which is rather nice

Thank Tom but I have investigated quite a few and this seems like a great one to me and have provisionally booked it.
