Humber Explorer tour 02/04/11 travel help

[heart-of-wessex]

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone from the south is booked on this tour?

If so, would I cheekily be able to ask for a car share if passing near the Trowbridge area? I would pay £10-£20+ for fuel/wear and tear (for a return that is) I will accept price offers like £25 £30 or whatever.

If not, does anyone know if there is any cheap places in Bristol to stay? It has to be in the Temple Meads area ideally, as I have no transport at all so walking distance is preferable. I don't really want to pay £50 for a night (when I could pay £40 for a sleep in a HST/153 or 150 by going via Fisghguard!)


Just thought I'd ask, if you don't ask, you don't get


Any help gratefully appreciated


Cheers,

James.

Thanks for that Stevieboi, unfortunately they are £50+, cheaper to do a overnight mileage trip and pay for my own breakfast really (not cheaper than a car share though) but thank you anyway, I will look at those again if needed for future dates!


Cheers,

James.

As a last resort, on the Friday night, you could stay at the Newport Travelodge (currently on sale for £19 on 1 April when I checked), very close to Newport station, and get the 05:09 to BPW or BRI on the Saturday morning.
